** BRAZIL. 11750 11810, June 24 at 0120, *no* big (not bit) dirty spurs from
RNA 11780; but at 0532 check, now they`re there, extremely distorted, plus much
weaker but detectable ones at 2 x 30 kHz above and below: 11720 and 11840.
Strangely seems to be a late-night defect

** BRAZIL [and non]. 5990, June 26 at 0117, no sign of RNA`s extra frequency

Ascension site was confirmed off the air due to unexplained power supply

** BRAZIL. 4754.9, July 2 at 0118, very poor signal with music, talk on the lo
side of 4755; presumed R. Imaculada Conceição, as usual off frequency (In
January, Dave Valko had it on 4754.8; Scott Barbour on 4754.92). It`s 10 kW,

aside 11795 Spain Sephardic from 0115, and 11760 Cuba. No discrete spurs
audible now on 11750/11810; but they are at 0542, the lower one stronger, and
fundamental is overmodulated/distorted. It seems they could get

Spanish, and guess what --- R. Rebelde is missing from 5025,
