** U S A. 9330, Dec 19 at 1524, no sig direct from WLCR via WBCQ, off?
Guess not; by 1533 check into Maryland SDR it`s very much on, in
English. BTW a few days ago I ran across them claiming that the 1969
Moon Landing was staged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, UT Sat Dec 20 at 0056 via
Maryland remote: No signal on 3265. Nor on 5130 which usually starts
*0055 with IS & ID loop. 6160 -75 Hz = 6159.925 JBA. 7490 -54 Hz =
7489.946, S7/S9 with FKB. At 0100, 7490- and webcast concede that
following originally aired Oct 3, 2025; never mind. By 0118, 7490 has
faded way down, 5130 -78 Hz = 5129.922 has come on and best by far,
S7/S9, better than the SuperStition on 9330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1370, Dec 19 at 0743 UT, ads with (660) area code, ID as

15230, even 15150. EiBi shows SMG at 1430-1530, 20 minutes each in
