 ** BRAZIL. 11780, Jan 3 at 0750 UT, RNA VG S9/+20 unlike missing last night, but no token English, rather music and Portuguese. So apparently English can be UT M-F only, not UT Sat. Little if any signal on 6180 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 2598 USB, Jan 3 at 0749 UT, marine weather by YL robovoice, mentions ``south coast``. Per DXinfocentre.com/mb.htm it`s the first broadcast of the day starting at 0737 from VCP-4, Placentia. Five other Newfoundland stations/sites rotate sharing time on 2598. 2749 USB, Jan 3 at 0752 UT, marine weather by YL robovoice. Sounds same as 2598 but unlikely //, and unusually this is weaker than 2598 which is further. This is only 550 watts, while Placentia on 2598 is 3000 watts. Per DXinfocentre.com/mb.htm it`s the first broadcast of the day from VCO Sydney NS starting at 0740. Three other NS stations/sites rotate sharing time on 2749. There are two other Canadian CG frequencies further north, 2514 and 2582, but only in ``daytime`` and never heard here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** COLOMBIA. 1100.28, Jan 3 at 0709, JBA carrier hetting WTAM 1100, again presumed HJAT Barranquilla, as Neil Kazaross reported a month ago. Not yet in mwoffsets but no other entry anywhere near that far above 1100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, Jan 3 at 2004, S7/9+30 of dead air direct in English, unseems howly now, and // 11880, S8/S9 dead air in English from RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2328 monitoring: confirmed Saturday January 3 at 0954 when I happen to awaken, the 0930 on WRMI 7570, S9+5/20 direct, and not on 9455 which is not even on the air between 04 & 23, yet continues to be shown on the WRMI blue System D sked. Nor WOR on any other WRMI frequency audible now. Confirmed not on air Sat Jan 3 at 1555 the 1530 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, instead TRSW music into UTwente, but should resume next week also on 6160. Confirmed Saturday January 3 at 1630 on WRMI 9955. S9+35 into Georgia SDR. Also confirmed Saturday January 3 at 1700 on WRN via WRMI, 9395 at S9+35 and 7730 S7 into Georgia SDR.

Evidently usual dominant and closest, SS KKLF The Metroplex TX is still missing, as is KBGG Des Moines; and not KVNS Bronwsville TX heard recently since it`s Fox Sports. Of the few stations left on 1700, NRC AM Log shows one with an FM on 94.5: WEUP Huntsville AL, U1 10/1 kW, in group ``Worship 94.5``. WTFDA FMDB shows that`s really W233BR in Moores Mill AL, 250 watts, urban gospel format, ``The Heritage Station 1700 AM`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 810.58, Jan 3 at 0705 UT, mystery JBA carrier hetting 810.00 stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1190, Jan 3 at 0710 UT, ``Aquí Radio Éxitos`` - but no such slogan listed anywhere in mwlist, WRTH 2026, NRC AM Log, IRCA Mexican Log - checking not only most likely Mexico, but all of Latin America. The closest name: WLIB NYC ``La Exitosa`` -- would be surprised to hear them in OK. And, XEMBC Mexicali BCN only 250/100 watts includes ``Grandes Éxitos`` among its slogans. The XE usually heard on 1190 is XEPZ, Ciudad Juárez Chih, 1000/250 watts which is/was: ``Máxima 99.1, tu Estilo de Vida``. It would be nice if a DXer in El Paso could confirm whether it`s now called Radio Éxitos. The closest Kiwi in Truth or Consequences is too far, only trace of an 1190 signal in daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 2021 UT January 3
