Hauser
** OKLAHOMA. Tornado hitting southern OKC: the local TV channels have
blown away all commercial network progrqmming all evening. Around 0200
UT Sat Apr 4 I survey which FM stations are plugged into which TV
stations. Some may have been missed, but on a portable seem off the
air. Some TV coverage is automatically interrupted for NWS warnings.
89.7 The House, not based in OKC; KFOR
Most other gospel huxters ignoring the crisis!
91.7 KOSU, NWS only? amid The Spy music
92.5 KWTV
93.3 off?
94.7 KFOR
96.1 KFOR, later back to music
96.9 KOCO - the only one on that?
98.1 off?
98.9 music
99.7 Mustang, C&W first, then KOCO?
100.5 off?
101.9 NWS
102.7 KFOR
104.1 KWTV
105.3 deadair
106.7 off?
107.7 KWTV
around 0230 UT I try MW band on portable, not much audible in storm
noise but:
1000 KFOR
800 Bott not weather. These are quick & dirty obs; maybe more later
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. From Doug Smith`s FCC info in April Line Of Sight, WTFDA:
``OK Oklahoma City K17JN 17 (17) Granted move from Enid; 15kw/140m,
35-24-54/97-30-38.``
So it will eventually become invisible in Enid, even if on the air,
leaving us with no local TV signals; will it still be multi-channel
3ABN? Another translator, which AFAIK has never really been on air in
Enid, at least I`ve not seen it, is moving to Wichita!:
``KS Wichita K25RD 25 (19) Granted move from K32MG Enid, Okla.;
15kw/148m, 37-20-08/97-27-54.`` One might wonder what`s the point?
Apparently preferable to move something licensed than start over from
scratch, even tho a different channel and different call. Also
different equipment? Some other such license-moves are even
trans-continental. One other strange item: KSBI RF23 is already too
weak, compared to KFOR RF27, KWTV RF25 and KOKH RF24 OKC which are
solid into Enid, but KSBI is normally BAD:
``OK Oklahoma City KSBI 23 (52) Requests power reduction to 540kw.
Granted`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.004-, April 3 at 2158, VOT IS & IDs, JBA into UTwente
and displaying as 11784.9821 not locking in. But at 2201 when retuned
and measured, S7/9+5 into UTwente -- BUT at 2238 recheck, it`s OFF!
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2341 monitoring: confirmed Friday
April 3 at 2035 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia 1322.996+, S7/S9
into UTwente.

Also confirmed Friday April 3 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9/+20 into
Georgia SDR. Since not aired at 1300, this becomes the first SW
airing, at least this week.

Also confirmed Friday April 3 at 2239 the 2230 on Shortwave Radio
Gold, Germany, 3975.003-, JBA into UTwente, S8/S9 into recommended
Barney`s Bedford UK SDR.

>From his hospital bed after surgery, Bob Biermann has diligently
loaded WOR 2341 remotely into the automation for WTWW, should 5085 be
on air UT Saturday at 0300. Then George McClintock notifies me at 0021
UT Sat Apr 4 that 5085 *is* on tonight -- but not hearing it yet by
0100 or even 0200, something else wrong, or not to turn on much before
0300 WOR time? 5085 finally came on about 0215. George had a problem
getting the live-in transmitter site family to turn it on! But WOR
should run at 0300. Next:
