Says there is a repeat on Fridays, 16 horas -- not sure if that`s start or end time but = 13 UT, earlier than I would ever tune for it. BTW, I did monitor after 15 UT this Thursday when there was allegedly a special station anniversary broadcast - but, nothing heard. 1532 song but dumps off air already at 1535* for a total of only 23+ minutes achieved today. Remote times out at 1539, and still nothing at another check before 1600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11670, Oct 15 at 0633, RHC English again on wrong band, S9+10 but overmodulated/distorted, YL boringly reading propaganda. This did not happen the nights before, as it had on Oct 11. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 7225 LSB, Oct 15 at 0706, surprised to hear ZL1XR repeatedly calling CQ 40, finally contacts unheard VK3SMW, on a legal frequency? ZL did not specify a QSX. Except in W Hemisphere, below 7200 is ham, above 7200 is for broadcasting, like RNZI on 7245 but not on yet. Or, like on 30m where Oz hams have special permission to operate phone, do NZ hams have special permission to operate in this broadcast band??? Bare-bones in QRZ.com: ``ZL1XR New Zealand flag New Zealand, Roger Smith, Auckland, New Zealand`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255 minus 67 Hz = 7254.933, Oct 15 at 1730, VON is on in English, S9/+15 into Canary SDR but virtually unreadable, marred by heavy lightning crashes; Blitzortung shows only small storm areas in Western Sahara and Western Sahara [non] = northern Morocco. The really heavy storms are further in SE Spain, and moreso eastern Mediterranean between Crete and Cyprus. By 1735, VON is gone leaving only the lightning and presumed trace of Tibet close to on-frequency. At 1739, VON and its squeal are back on. 1746 gone again. 1800 back on with squeal, minus 67-69 Hz = 7254.932v. And so it goes: Something`s always abysmal at Abuja (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

Previous WRMI update direct from Jeff said 7730 would be among the frequencies still to be reactivated. That should have read 7780. However whenever we check, 7730 is JBA on low power so really of no use. The FB version, as of about 22 UT Oct 14: ``WRMI Radio Miami International 18h ? HELLO EUROPE! - 15770 kHz is back on the air, finally, after Hurricane Ian damaged the transmission lines. The regular schedule is 1100-0000 UTC daily, but we might extend the schedule somewhat in the coming days. Our next targets are 21525, 5850, 7570 and 7780 kHz. We hope that some of these will be back on the air next week. So stay tuned!`` 15770, Oct 15 at 1623 tune-in via Maryland remote, dead air, then a bit of BSing, dead air, partial WRMI IS and BBB ID, back to BSing, i.e. other voices, presumably live Sabbath service at TOM; 1625 cut to ME music fill! Quite a mess. But it`s a good S9/+10 signal. How about into target Europe? Only noisy S7/S9 at UTwente, 1629 cut to ``That`ll be the day that I die`` tune. And more fill music 1630+. Yet the skedgrid shows SMTV on 15770 at 14-19. By 1727 recheck, 15770 is on SMTV. At 1740, music and SFX, like soundtrack to a WB cartoon of yesterday but with some Chinese dialog, and English, 1744 outro as a skit with actors protected during COVID, about the S.M. Skedgrid still shows System B on 15770 instead of 9955 at 19-20 only, including WOR Saturday at 1930, despite having deleted us from there months ago. So we continue without any WRMI broadcast toward Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7890, Oct 15 at 0705, presumed Bislama talk is JBA on 2 x 3945 R.
