** U S A. Regarding `Echos in the Ether` which replaced WOR without
notice, Sunday Nov 9 at 2100 on WRMI 15770, I`ve been seeking more
info about it. Current WRMI programming page shows:

``Echos in the Ether --- "Echos in the Ether" explores the boundless
world of radio — shortwave, amateur, and software-defined alike. Each
episode blends history, technology, and experimentation, guiding
listeners through hands-on projects, signal exploration, and
real-world applications. From decoding mysterious transmissions to
building antennas and tracking aircraft, it celebrates the enduring
curiosity that drives radio enthusiasts. Featuring practical insights,
interviews, and occasional deep dives into science and the
unexplained, Echos in the Ether bridges vintage airwaves with today’s
digital frontier. Tune in for a mix of discovery, education, and
storytelling that proves radio is still very much alive... and always
whispering across the ether.

Echos in the Ether can be heard Fridays at 11:00 pm Eastern Time on
5950 kHz, and UTC Sundays at 0000 UTC on 9455 kHz (that's Saturday
night in the Americas).

{the gridsked shows: UT: Saturday 0400 5950, Sunday 0000 9455, Sunday
0900 7780, Sunday 2100 15770)

A broad search leads to this FB item totally lacking any YEAR!

``WRMI Radio Miami International
October 11  ·
Join host Chris Fink each week for a new program dedicated to amateur
radio called "Echos in the Ether." The debut program is at 0000 UTC
Sunday October 11 on 9455 kHz (that's Saturday night in the
Americas).  The program will also be on each Friday night at 11:00 pm
Eastern Time on 5950 kHz echosintheether.com``

Guess what: Oct 11 was Sunday in 2015, 2020, and will be in 2026,
2037. If you search on echoes with two e`s, you get somethings
different? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6180, Nov 10 at 0227, S9+30 of dead air, CRI relay
scheduled 0100-0300. The first hour overlaps with RNA; Paul Walker
refers us to this about their own problems:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, Nov 10 at 1857, RHC Spanish, now this one with
windhowling QRM, and only S5/S7; 1902 late wrapping up daily ``11 am``
show = 1600 UT start. 1903 introducing French. 15140 a JBA carrier
only, and no others found into Ft Lauderdale SDR. By 2000, 11880 is
mostly dead air; heard a few notes of theme music, silence or howl.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 15380, Mon Nov 10 at 1657 open carrier into Ft
Lauderdale SDR, R. Martí modulation not until 1700.7; from 1657 also
on 13820, 11930 but not 11860. By 1702, 11860 is also on, weakest. I
think they were totally off Sat & Sun (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Zygalski and Rejewski in breaking Enigma was as usual overlooked.

also for HD channels mentioning KVOO! FM, that is. Of course the
original 1170 was KVOO, and its NBC channel 2 a great rival of KOTV
with CBS on 6. KVOO-FM is 98.5, ``The Bull``, country format. Seems
FCC LMS no longer provides a Callsign History link, but I think 98.5
used to be something else. Here`s the convoluted history:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVOO-FM
With IBOC noise on plus side 1173 from KSL, as KOTV pays them back
with own IBOC noise on 1157. These are the main IBOC patches heard
around here from major stations, besides 1080 KRLD on 1093 & 1067. See
also USA for KSL log (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Nov 9 at 2323, only signal into UTwente is Chinese,
not VOT in English; something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn

** U S A. 385 MCW kHz, Nov 10 at 0718 UT, HO, 50 watt NDB at ``Hossy``
Hot Springs AR. RNA list says exact site is Hempwallace, just SW of
Hot Springs. This time not mixing with UWL (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

November 9 at 2018 the 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.996+, VG
S9+5 into UTwente.

NOT confirmed Sunday November 9 at 2100 on WRMI 15770, instead `Echoes
in the Ether`, which seems to be some kind of DX program, also taking
over the 2130 Wavescan slot, as now on the skedgrid for System D.

Confirmed Sunday November 9 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, S9+25/40 into
Georgia SDR, but by 2358 fading to S9/+10 with ACI from 9455.

Confirmed UT Monday November 10 at 0000 on WRMI 9395, JBA into Georgia
SDR, but S9+10 into N9AZZ Illinois SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 10 at 0030 on WRMI 9455, VG direct

** U S A. 5072.2 & 5097.8, Nov 10 at 0230, JBA parasitic spur carriers
out of 5085 WTWW which is S9+40/50 direct. Not heard those +/- 12.8
kHz for a while and wondered if fixed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 660, UT Monday Nov 10 at 0240 UT, after C&W music, KTNN ID
for 660 and 101.5 FM - so finally back on air after almost three
weeks, why? Lots of QRM, so may not be totally non-direxional (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 970 kHz, Nov 10 at 0707 UT, ``Red Eye Radio on WDAY``... At
first I thought they said WGAY, but no such 970; nor WMAY Springfield
IL. WDAY Fargo ND is an RER affiliate. 10/10 kW somewhat direxional
but not nulling thisaway. The only nighttime notch is SE protecting
WMAY? if not KQAW Austin MN. WDAY site is certainly in MINNESOTA, east
of the Red River, so doesn`t qualify as an ND station. There was also
a LAH on the plus side of 970 attracting my attention (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1160, UT Monday Nov 10 at 0232, mid-break in `Meet the
Press` from NBC TV. I don`t see how this could be anything but KSL
SLC, but amid lots of stuff on website, no plain old program
schedule!!!! Nor do I see anything about NBC, a network I had never
associated with this station. Ideas? Furthermore, it`s NEWSRADIO
102.7FM, no branding whatsoever as 1160AM - they might as well turn it
off? See also OKLAHOMA KOTV log (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
