** CANADA. Re CHU missing several times from 7850, Richard Langley
tells us July 23: ``Just heard back from a technical officer at the
National Research Council: "Between July 13 and 16 we had problems
with 7.85 MHz transmitters. The temperature in the transmitter room
was extremely high, due to the outside temperature, and the
transmitter was frequently off. There could also be other factors and
we are observing this frequency on the air to make adjustments in the
future." -- Richard Langley`` (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 15034 USB, as of July 23, in random daytime chex have not

China not until *0000, but I see VOT listed on 11780 instead! That

mystery off too by 2400, no China heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Mike Cooper forwards this news July 23:
``[WOR] Washington Post: Kari Lake moves to consolidate her power to
dismantle Voice of America -- The Arizonan, an ally of President
