DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS
updated for North American DST season March 9, before confirmations
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
** CANADA. Official SWL Channel of Gilles Letourneau, Québec, often
activates on Saturday afternoon. I check him from time to time, but
there is too much going on Saturday afternoons for me to follow one
thing for 5+ hours, starting circa 2000 UT:
https://www.youtube.com/live/RRzaF4LPGlE
I happen to retune about 0110 UT March 9, and there he is ``dancing``
or rather ``handing`` or gesturing to ``Midnight in Moscow`` music.
The whole shebang apparently shows him seated by his radios, chatting
with participants, some of the 50K followers he has accumulated. That
was apparently the final performance this week as the feed froze by
0112 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY. 9670, Saturday March 8 at 1800, `From the Isle of Music`
via Channel 292, VG into UTwente, delayed almost a minute behind 3955,
but much better VG signal on 9670 until fading down last new minutes
before 1900. Inconvenient scheduling, since it collides with `Talking
Machine Show` on WWCR 12160, and Metropolitan Opera. I had to miss the
first hour of `La Bohème`. Same situation next week for his other
monthly, `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, unless I can manage to catch its
first and only other airing, Friday at 2200 on 3955 only, as UB will
not availablize his shows ondemand online, in support of the shortwave
medium (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, UT Sat March 8 at 0237, JBA music, no doubt
Ball Smacker Radio on its reliable Friday-evening frequency and time;
more reports here:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141935.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6849.9 AM, Sat Mar 8 at 0238, disco beat music JBA.
More reports here as Liquid Radio on 6850, but none later than 0232:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141937.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715, Fri March 7 at 2222, another frequency missing from
REE, the one for SAm which is second-best for us in the also continued
absence of 12030 for ME. Still on 17755 for Af, VG S9+30 9690 for NAm.
2300 token English previews topic about a feminist leader for
International Women`s Day. All checked direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9610, March 7 at 2315 direct, algo weak can`t tell if VOT
English, and nothing on 5960. At 2332 into UTwente, only Chinese on
5960, only Mongolian on 9610. VOT a total loss; but this saves them
from another error, German after 2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.003+, Sat Mar 8 at 2300, VOT English not off
the air; something`s not erroneous at Emirler, S9+25/40 into UTwente
and not even tried direct. Some hum, and somewhat
overmodulatedistorted. News already over at 2311 music. 2317
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2320 talk about Feb 2023
earthquaxe, pipeline from Azerbaijan, Georgia. Not sure of title, but
sounds familiar. 2226 music. 2330 TRTVOTVorld promo. By now there is
CCCCCCI which does not make it easier to understand Efsun the
axentuated who is back! talking about something, 2243 outro title was
`Dream Destinations`, I have to check Roe`s sked to find; music. 2347
``always-by-your-side`` promo again, repeat feature about famous cats
from the White House to Hermitage to Key West. 2351 music. 2353
``with-you-every-hour`` promo. 2354 s/off as if it`s the 1330 on
13635, awry. 2355 first notes of IS about one sesquitime, and chop
off* uncovering ChiComusic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed Friday
March 7 at 2315 the 2300 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 direct and
undermodulated. From next week: 2200.
Also confirmed Friday March 7 at 2333 the 2330 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003, S8/9+5 into UTwente.
Not confirmed UT Sat Mar 8 at 0400 on WTWW 5085, remains off air. From
next week, if on: 0300. Stream is not working either, tho when it did,
WOR was not to be heard even when airing on 5085.
Confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1542 the 1530 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.000, S8/9+10 into UTwente. Almost QRM-free: nothing on 6155,
strong music on 6150, presumably Europa 24 from Germany; weak algo on
6165 with warble, CRI Pashto via Urumqi.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1700 on WRN North America stream.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1833 the 1830 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003-, S9+10 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 2030 on WRN North America stream.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream. There is

** U S A. 9930, March 7 at 2229, no signal from WTWW-1 with TOMBS, nor
at morning check today. 9475 still missing from WTWW-2 so totally off.
Probably not on subsequent night frequencies either, 5920 & 5085.
However, 9930 found on with TOMBS at 0044, but gone again at 0120, nor
on 5920; but 5920 is on at 0305 & 0357 chex, not 5085 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, UT Sat Mar 8 at 0043 into NH
SDR: 7490 -77 Hz = 7489.23, S9+15 of FKB; 9330.00, S7/S9 of WLCR in
Portuguese; 6160, 5130 & 3265 all OFF. At *0055, 5130 -25 Hz =
5129.975 with The Planet ID & IS loop. 6160 -68 Hz = 6159.932 now on
at S9+10 with some music. At 0100, only 5130 & 7490 join for `AAAWWW`
this week, not 9330, not announced as originally aired last week, but
it is obvious rerun as talkover during theme includes ``Either or not,
we`re coming thru ... billions & billions of radio receivers out
there...`` and quick interjexion at end sounds like ``Fab-u-4``, segué
to ``Turn Your Radio On`` hymn; tuneout (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WRMI sked grid is now ``as of March 9, 2025`` per the
header, but each individual System program grid is *still* dated as
``effective March 10, 2024``!!! Altho each has doubtless been changed
numerous times in the past year, and we still spot some of the same
old errors concerning WOR and other programs, never 100% matching
reality of what really airs:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pcIEX8kisrOPqlXHDAq6gympKUgDj0SIb96qce2kGGQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 17509 JBA, 17513, 17517, 17521; 17529, 17533, 17537, JBA on
17541, slightly unstable spur carriers at 4x kHz intervals above and
below 17525, obviously emanating from that S9+30 WMLK, March 7 at
2221.
At 0158 March 8: ``More fun from WMLK? I'm seeing a really strong
carrier, no audio, on 17525 during the past 30 minutes (the 0100 UT
hour). Only noting this due to some recent mentions of them on 17525.
I see it on several SDRs I've checked as well. Did someone lock up for
the night and forget to turn out the lights? Tony Pavick, Hope BC
Canada`` -- In a hurry for Sabbath? Could not go back to do ``work``
after sunset just to turn it off? Yahweh`ll get `em for that?
Apparently it did get turned off eventually. Hmmm, does automation
count as illegal ``work`` since set up by believers? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 880, Sat Mar 8 at 0806 UT, KRVN, Lexington NE starting `Our
American Stories`, usual dominant signal here. From next week: 0706
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7636.0, March 8 at 0713, open carrier at S9+ plus clix
once per second. Same as logged March 4. No other significant hits in
archive to explain it. Also had 9236 on Feb 26, but this time
instead:
Also 9126.0 at 0716 March 8, S2/S3 carrier but only occasional random
clix. Searching my archive on 9126 gets this hit, maybe coincidental,
Sept 13, 2024 from:
``Takahito Akabayashi, Tokyo, Japan --- According to Japanese radio
amateur Ryota Mitobayashi, JJ1WTL, US-based companies have set up 4
Experimental Shortwave Financial Data Trading stations in Japan. All
the stations are located in Boso peninsula, Chiba prefecture, about
100 km southeast from Tokyo. Details of the 4 stations are as follows.
Stations 1) – 3) were relicensed on January 1 2024, date of expiry are
March 31 2027.
1) DATACOM SERVICES (a subsidiary of IMC Asia Pacific B.V.) Location:

10953 12117 12159 14673 14736 16119 kHz Power 10 kW ...`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 21480-21490, March 7 at 2219, DRMish noise direct.
Nothing of any ilk listed on 21485 per HFCC, Aoki, EiBi, drmrx.
Suspect could be another China DRM, but sounds not quite normal with
some pulsing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 328 MCW kHz, March 7 at 0719 UT, dash and YTL, Big Trout
Lake ON. Hadn`t heard this one in a long time.
346 MCW kHz, March 7 at 0725 UT, dash and YXL, Sioux Lookout ON. Also
many more from USA, q.v., and UNIDENTIFIED (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, March 7 at 1605, RHC S7 but JBM, still on but usually
off by 1600. SAWA = something`s always wrong at - (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** MEXICO. 800, March 7 at 0712 UT, heavy distorted mess from XEERG vs
KQCV OKC, still unfixed. I wonder if CKLW and PJB listeners also have
a problelm with it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SCOTLAND [non]. I was complaining about music being hard to find on
SW vs talk formats. But unlike some stations with only one or three
transmitters, there are plenty of music blox on one WRMI or another,
altho only one classical: `Encore`. Turned on my BSR1 caradio, Friday
March 7 around 2030 and there it was, already tuned to 15770. Fair
signal but never a blaster here since it`s aimed NE. Too bad not a
single WRMI in daytime be aimed across N America, and should be on 13
MHz or higher. I had already heard this new biweekly episode at first
airing, UT Fri Mar 7 at 0200 on 5850. Other WRMI times: UT Sun 0100 on
5850, UT Mon 0300 on 5950, Tue 1300 on 15770. 5950 is subject to DST
shifts unlike the others, so should already be at 0200 UT Monday
when the System L sked shows it should also be on 7730 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. LW bandscan March 7 at 0713-0739 UT, local noise level
abated a bit allows IDs from these MCW ND beacons to be heard, but
many more JBA carriers only, see UNIDENTIFIED. Also two from CANADA,
q.v.
245, FS, Sioux FallS SD;
255, SW, StillWater OK;
293, UI, qUIncy IL mixing/alting with FBY, FairBurY NE. Unusually UI

400, AHQ, wAHoo NE;
420, PK, Olathe/Herbb KS
(Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. As if in reply to my observation that I`ve heard no
trace of any CW beacons on the ISM band for months, are any active?
These logs in CIDX Messenger:
``13566.50 kHz CW; 1519 UT Feb. 26. KE4TWI. HiFER (High Frequency
Experimental Radio) CW beacon in Lebanon, TN. Weak. These
transmissions occur within the ISM band
(Industrial/Scientific/Medical) where unlicensed experimental
operation is allowed, but with very low power levels (mW range). In
hobbyist lingo this is the "22m HiFER" band, which is 13553 to 13567
kHz (Hudak-ON)
13566.55 kHz CW; 1456 UT Feb. 22. RVA. HiFER CW beacon. Richmond, VA.
Weak to fair (Hudak-ON)
13566.75 kHz CW; 0523 UT Feb. 26. AMA. HiFER CW beacon located in
Hamilton, ON, which is close to me. Reception via ground wave. Weak to
fair with chirp on the signal (Hudak-ON)`` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed Friday
March 7 at 1300 the first SWBC on WRMI 15770, S8/S9 direct.
Also confirmed Friday March 7 at 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.997+, S9+5 into UTwente across Europe.
Also confirmed Friday March 7 at 2130 on WRMI webcast, but 9955 not on

** U S A. 17517 & 17533, March 6 at 2031, JBA matching spurs +/- 8 kHz
from WMLK 17525, which is S9+25 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 830, March 7 at 0707 UT, WCCO with `The Other Side of
Midnight` talk show host against DST, gives a phone number starting
with 720, so I wonder if it originate at WGN? He is // WGN 720 but
about 8 words behind WCCO. So he`s on WCCO before WGN. Search leads to
Frank Morano also on WABC ``live and local`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. LW bandscan, full of tantalizing JBA carriers of ND
beacons, March 7 at 0713-0739 UT. If only my local noise level could
be lessened! The ones with audible IDs are separate under USA, CANADA,
q.v.
227, 233, 251, 260, 267, 272, 284, 299, 309, 314, 316, 334, 338, 341,

417.6?? maybe a birdie but all the others are on exact 1.0-kHz
spacing. One may consult these for likelies:

https://rxx.classaxe.com/en/rna/signals
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 810.57, March 7 at 0710 UT, JBA mystery carrier hetting
810.00 WHB. I`ve DFed it more than once as roughly 100/280 degrees
from Enid. Now we need others to get a bearing from other angles to
triangulate it. This can be done on a hand-held portable with built-in
ferrite rod antenna, preferably with BFO, not with otherwise superior
fancy fixed antennas which have such a disadvantage (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 10125 USB, March 6 at 0656, trace of ham QSOs
with Oz accent, vs 10125 CW, HK3QQ with usual fraxured keyboard
letters loop. First time in many months I`ve heard the SSB, from

meters. Never could copy any IDs in ragchews (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD
OF RADIO 2285)

this is CBK Watrous/Regina SK, seldom heard anymore enough to overcome
XEWA et al. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

stations, probably XEREL Morelia still doing it (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WORLD OF RADIO 2285)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5890, March 6 at 0702 UT, WWCR-4 on again
with TOMBS attempting to sing, despite weekend-only overnight
scheduling altho this is Thursday, S9+50, and // but not synchronized
to 5850 WRMI-12 which by comparison is quite undermodulated, and only
S9+35/40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2284 monitoring: confirmed UT
Thursday March 6 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, S7/S9+10 into Bonaire SDR;

** U S A. Re my non-reception of 17525 WMLK: ``17525 is still active
and was noted at 1630 UT today [March 5]. One thing I will say
about WMLK is that compared to WINB they have a far better quality
signal. WINB always sounds really compressed. Source programme issue
maybe? Tony Pavick, Hope BC``
Today March 6 at 1633, no 17525 but on 15150, S9+10/15 into Wichita
SDR; 1658 s/off with address for reports, bit of music till 1700*
sharp. Original schedule was 15150 to 1700, 17525 from 1730. Via
UTwente I sit on 17525, which cuts on S9/+10 carrier 17525.011- at
*1727, 1730 s/on giving ``licensed to broadcast at 0400-0900 &
1700-2200`` but no frequencies mentioned!

``The WMLK 17525 frequency 1730-2230 in A-25 caught my eye, as VOA
English used 17530 from 1700-1830 during A-24. Tight squeeze from
1730-1830 in A-25 if VOA retains that frequency. Of course the entire
USAGM shortwave output could be facing drastic cuts, so who knows what
will happen. Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4831.20, March 6 at 0659, JBA carrier, suspect spur out of
very strong WWCR-3, 4840; but no match +8.8 kHz on other side. This is
quite steady unlike the spurfield out of 5935 WWCR-2. New transmitter
sked from March 9 for DST season is now up showing some changes,
mostly one-hour shifts in some spans, but not all to earlier:
https://www.wwcr.com/transmitter-sched.html
We expect all programming moves one UT hour earlier to stay at same
Central time after the imposition of daylight-shifting (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7260, March 6 at 0657, RV is already here in JBA music, no
9960, and 7260 continues after 0700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2285)
** VATICAN. 15565, March 6 at 0716, JBA carrier, the OSOB except for
15770 WRMI also very weak. SMG site in convoluted schedule of
languages and times (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED [non]. 13554-13566, March 6 at 1633, NO trace of any CW
beacon in the ``HIFER`` ISM band -- just the local RF ID clutterstuff
around 13560. I bandscan this at least once a day or night, but
nothing heard for several months. Used to occasionally pull one. Is it
only my noise level, propagation, or are few of these really active?
Look at this list and hunt them:
https://www.lwca.net/sitepage/part15/index.htm
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15916.0, March 6 at 1618, open carrier except for clix
every second, S7/S8 but which are detectable out to 15902/15927; same
as recently heard on 7636.0, 9236.0, no listings for any in Klingenfuß
2022. Perhaps significant that they all end in 6? What are they?

** ALGERIA. 13855, March 4 at 2320, presumed Ifrikya FM, Ouargla,
S9/+10 talk direct but JBM, per EiBi at 1900-0100. 13640, Béchar,
March 5 at 2315, S9/+10 but JBM, // 13855 Ouargla S9/+10 but slightly
less JBM, i.e. more modulation. 13640 sked is 1900-0300. Weakest link
syndrome, JBM feed from studio? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ARGENTINA. 28466 USB, March 4 at 2317, Juan LU9HVR in Córdoba
province making quick contacts among quite a bit of activity on 10m.
QRZ.com with photos of self, equipment, 10m certificates: ``LU9HVR
Argentina flag Argentina, JUAN PABLO COSTANZO, SIMON BOLIVAR 500 Y PJE
PUBLICO, RIO CEBALLOS-CORDOBA 5111, Argentina`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9818.55, March 5 at 0722, JBA carrier, no doubt R. Nove de
Julho on signature skewed frequency, which had been off for several
nights, as also reported by:
``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain: BRAZIL, 9818.6. After several days off
the air, Radio 9 de Julho, São Paulo is back on 9818.6. Heard right
now, 0645, 05-03, with its usual religious program. 25422.``
And Rudolf Grimm, SP, reported March 3: ``9818,9 kHz: Radio Nove de
Julho, São Paulo SP: Active, but not continuously in SW`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 15800, March 5 at 2318, S8/S9 JBA with Doppler flutter, no
doubt CNR1 jammer vs Sound of Hope, nothing else listed. 15610 ditto
at 2317. Certainly not WEWN, which reactivated carrier here briefly
but never resumed programming. M. Angelica`s ghost must prioritize
Spanish on 12050 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** IRAN. 1322.989-, March 4 at 2334, Qur`an catches my ear via
UTwente, as I am rechecking the IRRS/AM Italia frequency which carries
WOR at 2100 Tuesdays, today with some CCI under. Per mwlist this is
surely the 50 kW IRIB external service in Azeri, 50 kW from Jolfa,
which is normally off the air 2020-0120, but this is Ramadan, so now
it`s all-night as in WRTH showing for // 7230 during March, and which
is also audible with same on 7230.006+. There is a variety of music,
soft talk, and the very pleasant soft VIRI interval signal,
periodically such as at 0009, 0017 March 5. At latter time, also some
pulsing QRM, surely not jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1390, March 5 at 0747 UT, dead air at S9+65 from my
nearest local KCRC Enid, instead of stupid sports talk; same of course
on its sibling, 1640 KZLS, S9+45. Both finally enliven at 0800.
Nothing else can be heard under 1390 without nulling, inconvenient at
this late hour, but else is on 1640, heard 914 area code, but must
have been on a network as that`s Westchester County north of NYC, no
1640 stations (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 95.7, March 5 at 2035 UT, dead air from KXLS ``Lahoma`` =
Enid market, but remodulating at 2042 check; the same cluster
providing DA on 1390/1640 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, March 5 at 2040, undermodulated $ tereo country
music from Part 15 in downtown Enid, normally dead air, and resumes
that by next check 2118 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** PUERTO RICO. 391 MCW kHz, March 5 at 0732 UT, DDP, ND beacon heard
for first time since Dec 27 altho there was a carrier on Jan 11. I
check for it every night in bandscan. Can`t hear it tuned to 391 USB
due to somethings on 392, 395, but clearly with 391 LSB. This time
there is nothing audible further north than perennial 293 FBY
FairBurY, Nebraska. RNA Signals List says 2000 watts at San Juan /
DoraDo / Luis Muñoz Marín Intl. Still haven`t been able to hear any
others in Caribbean, Latin America if even active (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Mar 5 at 2300, token English from SNR, S9+30/40
direct, preview feature about an International Art Fair featuring S
America; 2301 news leads with *rump getting a letter from Zelenskyy;
tariffs against Mexico and Canada kick in, retaliation promised. Still
NO 12030; 17715 S8/S9, 17755 JBA. Sorry, I`d rather SEE art than HEAR
about it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004-, March 4 at 2315, JBA carrier direct
the so-called N American service in English of VOT, but after 2335
when measured via UTwente, S9+30/40; mostly music until s/off 2354
awry as if it`s the 1330 broadcast, IS chopped erroneously after only
6 notes before 2355* uncovering China music.
5960.003-, March 5 at 2259, VOT English JBA direct; 2330 into UTwente
when measured, S9+20/30 with music, 2335 ``with-you-every-hour``
promo, music; 2340 ``always-by-your-side`` promo - or was it the other
way around? and more music. By 2359 it`s East Turkistan only on
5960.003+; standard genocidal denunciations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2284 monitoring: ``from Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF (30 years of service), Antenna: random
long wires in the trees, WRMI, USA, World of Radio #2284, 9395 kHz,
QRN, 0030, 0045, 0057 (4-55433), 0059, March 5 UTC 2025 [Wed] (Lemke,
Richard -AB)``
Confirmed UT Wednesday March 5 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+30/35 into
Georgia SDR. From next week; Tuesday 2330.
Also confirmed Wednesday March 5 at 2030 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003, S9+5/15 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Wednesday March 5 at 2200 on WBCQ 7490 -76 Hz =
7489.924, S9+15/20 into NH SDR. Preceded by TOMBS // but not synch to
9930 WTWW. 7490 concluding 2159 with failed attempt to sing; what
became of the `Pirate Joe Extravaganzo` just before WOR and still on
the sked?? TOMBS is on there until 2100. Of course all WBCQ times
shift one real UT hour earlier from next week due to imposition of
Daylight Shifting Time, funxioning like a domestic rather than
planetary station; time is not and *cannot* be ``Saved`` by fiddling
with clox. Next:
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160.
Thanks this week to Terry L Krueger, Niceville FL for a contribution
to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, ``for all your years of
dedication to accuracy``
One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9955, Wed March 5 at 1624, JBA S5/S6 presumably WRMI. Its
transmitter grid shows WRMI-3 until 1600* except Saturday TOMBS -1700.
System B program grid shows until 1630 daily with something from WRN
before going to internet only until 2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9455, Wed March 5 at 2321, WRMI S9+40/50 with John spelling
out slowly at least thrice his VORW email address, then a music
request from Windsor, Ont. WRMI skedgrid shows VORW on 7570 at this
time, not 9455. Yet another contradixion (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 810 kHz, March 5 at 0740-0743+ UT, dead air at S9+45, surely
WHB Kansas City failing to talk sports. Checking of course for the
mystery 810.6v carrier, none now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1150 kHz, March 5 at 0745 UT, S9+30 of dead air, surely my
dominant KSAL, Salina KS, normally `C2CAM`. `Tis the season for solar
transit outages on satellite feeds, but not in the nightmiddle! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
U S A. 1680 kHz, March 5 at 0751 UT, deliberate talk in very strange
language, like fraxured French? Heard Québec mentioned. Could be
Haitian Kriyol. Yes! mwlist, but not NRC AM Log, shows WOKB Winter
Garden FL is ``also in Creole``. Is atop closer KRJO Monroe LA, which
regains at 0800 for ID as ``Real Country 99.7``, altho mwlist and NRC
AM Log show KRJO as ``99.7 The Legend``. No WOKB ID heard around
hourtop, still going in FF past 0805+. Unlike so many stations, WOKB
has a detailed day-by-day, hour-by-hour program schedule,
https://wokbradio.com/the-line-up
including: ``WEDNESDAY Echo Evangelique Hosted by Pastor Sanel Petit'
Frera 12:00AM - 5:00AM The best inspirational Creole programing;
music, ministry, special guest and more.`` This is the only Creole
block during the entire 24/7 week -- lucky me! Winter Garden is in
central, not south Florida. Motto: YOUR URBAN EMPOWERMENT AND
INSPIRATION STATION (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17525, March 5 at 1623, JBA S5/S4 music and talk; could
it be WMLK in the morning instead of afternoon? No, it`s now on 15150,
ID in passing, only S7/9+20 in degraded propagation. Aoki lax any WMLK
entries! EiBi has 15150 & 9275 only. Has WMLK deliberately stopped
17525? It`s in HFCC for B24 thru March 30, 2025; and nothing else
listed on 17525 except KSDA at 00-01. So what`s this? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
