** LUXEMBOURG. 6140, Dec 14 at 0728, song at S6/S7 direct. Presumably
again R. Gloria, Switzerland via R. Onda, which is registered in HFCC
as only 1 kW, non-direxional. Hard to believe what I am hearing is not
running a lot more power than that. Also reported by Gianni Serra:

``6140 LUXEMBOURG Radio Gloria, Junglinster, in German, 12.13.2025
0654-0706 (6139.989 - .990 kHz per UTwente, poor/almost fair with 5.59
kHz audio filter), slow music and slow chorus chant, from about 0701
man brief unclear talk, then woman unclear talk (presumed religious
sermon); heard better in USB/LSB sync with 2.3 kHz filter, almost
steady poor signal, moderate to louder QRN rustle, QRM moderate buzz
in SSB sync (loud buzz in AM), poor / from about 0700 very poor with
audio up and down the QRN threshold; in // < https://radiogloria.ch >

Serra – Roma, Italy – with Tecsun PL-990X)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, Dec 14 at 0301, thintonations of Josiah on
Station YHWH, JBA S7 direct. Ron Howard also remarked: ``YHWH at 0220,
fair-good via S. Alberta!`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 13 sometime after 2300, quick check at UTwente
confirms that VOT English is not off the air this time (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9660.008, Sun Dec 14 at 1751, VOT English only S7/S9 and
noisy into Riyadh SDR, equally poor into UTwente ending `The Pulse of
Turkish Foreign Policy`, and multi-lingual ID filler reel, 1754 music,
1801 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, and start `Letterbox`. Reception
so poor that I can`t copy a lot of detail, but: Cemre says it was
recorded Friday? 1) Alan Roe, England, will shortly issue his holiday
programmmes on SW sked. 2) Anatoly Klepov, Moscow, another QSL
request. 3) Canada. 4) Siddartha Papajarjee, India, asking if
international-day-of- something is celebrated? 5) southeast Poland. 6)
final: India, with international dx radio club. Now reception improves
to S9+10 into UTwente, but 1818 goodbye and theme, 1819
``with-you-every-hour`` promo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2325 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
December 13 at 1700 on WRN North America stream, and via WRMI 9395,
S5/S7 into Maryland SDR, inaudible on 7730. But I can confirm 7730 via
Georgia SDR, S7/S9.

Also confirmed Saturday December 13 at 1830 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975.002, S7/S9 into UTwente; 6160 remains off, taken over by ChiCom
music.

Also confirmed Saturday December 13 at 2030 on WRN North America
stream, also via WRMI 9395, into N9AZZ Illinois remote. And also still
not on WRMI webcast of (9955) despite schedule, rather music.

Also confirmed Saturday December 13 from 2031 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO,
S7 into N9AZZ Illinois remote; less noise problem than usual at first
but worsening before 2100.

Also confirmed Saturday December 13 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

Missed checking Sat Dec 13 at 2200 on WRMI 9395; anyone hear it?

Not confirmed Saturday December 13 at 2257 the 2230 on WRMI 15770,
since that transmitter is still off the air! No signal into Maryland
or UTwente.

Confirmed Saturday December 13 at 2257 the 2230 on WRMI 17790, S5/S7
into N9AZZ IL SDR.

Not confirmed UT Sunday December 14 at 0030 on webcast only of
IRRS/IPAR/NEXUS/IBA: like Friday attempt, a few words from me and then
silence, replaced by fill music. And at 0044 check some other talk
program was running. I reminded IRRS once again about this as there
are three more airings pending. And re-uploaded to their server in
case my original got corrupted. Would anyone awake at 1030 UT Sunday
please check whether the whole thing play on 9510, or at least the
webcast. Mauno Ritola, Finland, replied: ``It's now 1050 and your show
has continued without breaks since 1030`` - IRRS also advises that my
original upload had a mistake in the file name, so my fault!

Not confirmed UT Sunday December 14 at 0400 on WTWW 5085, a possible
alternate/replacement time since #2324, not 2325 ran 24 hours earlier
at regular time; instead, stayed on with Truth2Ponder. WTWW later
advised me that WOR may have run at some other time UT Sunday, and
also appear at some time on UT Monday, 0400?

Also confirmed UT Sunday December 14 starting way late at 0509 UT the
0415v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+5/12 into KM4RT SDR in west TN.

Also confirmed Sunday December 14 at 0730 on WRMIs direct: 5850
S9+30/S5; 7570 S9+25; 7730 too weak but probably; 7780 S8/S4; 15770
inaudible, but maybe on. At 0410 Maryland SDR had a weak signal,
S5/S6, altho I had thought 15770 off the air earlier Saturday even in
daytime, maybe just bad propagation. Next:

UNIDENTIFIED [non]. 869.60, Dec 14 at 0258 UT, JBA carrier hetting WWL
870 - which is never the bigsig it used to be - but it disappears when
I turn off a nearby TV! Other offset MW carriers I am getting I still
think are real, but need to re-test them that way if the TV also be on
