It doesn`t show countries by name. You have to figure them out from map, callsign or flag. I kept listening until 0400 UT ID as Alcaravan Radio --- that`s the sibling station to LV de tu Conciencia, nominally on 5910 but it was not unusual for them to swap programming. So at least one of the HJDHs has been reactivated. Long-winded sermon continued until 0341 switch to another speaker with Bible reading, 0346 hymn in Mexican style, 0349 anmts, more tunes including tropical rhythms; 0354 ``continue con nosotros`` but no ID. 0358 song about carnaval. 0400 mentions Mexico nortena and Colombia, finally definite ID in passing, more tropical music.

Shortwave.info shows two broadcasts are on at this time (0251 UTC). One from Ecuador{sic} (Voz de tu Conciencia) and one from Mexico City (Nucleo Radio Mil). Currently hearing latin music with a male announcer. Not sure which station I am hearing as the transmitter from Mexico City is shown to be 1 KW while the transmitter from Ecuador is shown to be 5 KW, both ND. I will be surprised if this is from Mexico as I thought only XEPPM (6185 kHz) was the only Mexico shortwave station. Anyone have any ideas about this? Signal strength is very good, S-7 to S-9, steady with little fading.

Also getting it on Colombia KiwiSDR. I keep listening until 0400 UT definite ID as Alcarav?n Radio --- that`s the sibling station to LV de tu Conciencia, nominally on 5910 but it was not unusual for them to swap programming. Presumably Alcarav?n has kept active on MW 1530. But does LVC have a MW frequency? So at least one of the HJDHs has been reactivated. Long-winded sermon continued until 0341 switch to another speaker with Bible reading, 0346 hymn in Mexican style, 0349 announcements, more tunes including tropical rhythms; 0354 ``contin?e con nosotros`` but no ID. 0358 song about carnaval. 0400 mentions M?xico norte?a and Colombia, finally definite ID in passing ``Alcarav?n Radio`` [never vice versa], more tropical music, occasional chex such as 0420, 0442 music. They do play a lot of nice music, but ruin it with interruptions for predication. I`m mostly listening via the two KiwiSDRs in Colombia; the Bogot? one is less noisy; still music past 0500. Two Alcarav?n Radio IDs at 0520. Then I check 5910 which until 0500 is blocked here by CRI via Cuba. There, the signal is much weaker, and still a carrier, presumably Cuba overrun. At 0616 when I quit, nothing on 5910 but 6010 still audible direct very poor with music. Probably runs all-night. Manuel M?ndez, Spain was hearing 6010 as late as 0720, direct? Via a FL remote, Wolfgang Bueschel says it`s on exactly 6010.000 at 0636. The old transmitter was off-frequency. Tnx to Mike Newland, Morgantown KY, G5RV and Icom IC-7300, who first reported this to the WOR iog as unID at 0251 --- per short-wave.info would be either LVC or Mexico, Radio Mil --- incredibly, that long-gone station is still on the list --- doesn`t anyone keep it up to date??? It was helpful however to retain LV de tu Conciencia, but should have been flagged as inactive for a few years --- until now. There had been reports that visiting American gospel huxter engineers might be refurbishing these outlets. A few days ago, Bob Wilkner in FL had something in Spanish on 5910 before 0100 but which we could not confirm the next night. After 0100, Romania may or may not be active on 5910, and after 0300 it`s China via Cuba until end of B-19. WRTH 2020 lists 5910 & 6010 as DC stations --- as if they were in Bogot?, solely because that`s the postal address of QSL manager Rafael Rodr?guez R.! They are really in remote Puerto Lleras, Meta. [non] Brasil is also active on 6010, altho I heard none of it in Colombia but did not try SDRs in Brasil; so beware and be sure of which language you are hearing. On the radioescutas group March 10: ``Bom dia amigos. R?dio Inconfid?ncia sintonizada (6.010 Mhz) aqui em Mar?lia(Sp) neste momento ((8h10) da manh? [0510 UT], programa "Em boa companhia". Ivan Evangelista Jr`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11880, March 9 after 2200 and 2302, no signal from RHC on the second day of its needless transmission jumbling due to the imposition of DST which ought to be irrelevant. Until March 8 had been at 22-23, and ``normal`` A-season shift was *later* to 23-24 UT on 11880 or 9720 --- and nothing there either. I also scan the entire 15, 13, 11, 9, 7 and 6 MHz bands and do not find RHC English anywhere on old or new frequencies during either hour. Maybe got lost in shuffle or coincidental transmitter downage? Keep checking. Something`s always wrong at RHC. If RHC management were not such a total mess, Arnie could have broadcast the exact new times and frequencies on DXers Unlimited March 8 or preferably earlier. But he never deals with such significant mundane matters. WRTH used to list him as the frequency manager, but lately only as ``advisor consultant to the director general``. My further RHC chex: English on tropical 5040 has indeed shifted an hour *earlier* from 00-01 UT to 23-24 UT March 9, confirmed beginning at 2301 but no //s anywhere. After 2200, Spanish is on 11950, 6000, 11850, 15370 at least; at 2244, 11700 in Portuguese; at 2305, 15730 in distorted Kriyol. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Late night, March 10 at 0618, 6060 is S9+30 of dead air; 6000 & 6100 are off; 6145 at 0620 in undermodulated English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13635 & 13765 approx., March 10 at 1407, RHC FM/AM spurblobs out of RHC 13700 distorting `Sonido Cubano` music now during its earlier hour; just a trace on 2 x 65 kHz second-orders 13570 & 13830. 13740 is still on with bigsig of dead air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15700, March 10 at 1410, CRI English relay is just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [non]. 7295, March 10 at 1818, IRRS with `War Room Pandemic` episode 39, very strong via UTwente, but considerable undercurrent QRM from Iran`s IS until it cuts off at 1822* --- for VIRI is already on 7295 in German at 1720-1820, 500 kW at 313 degrees! Now IRRS ex-7290 is colliding with that in order to evade China on 7285. At 1823, WRP mentions being on SW NEXUS IRRS to various targets but no time or frequency details (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2024 monitoring: on Monday March 9, Ron Norton sent an IRRS notice that they would be on 7295 instead of 7290 at 18-20 UT, to avoid CRI QRM on 7285 for the Coronavirus program at 1800. I quickly check UTwente and find nothing on 7285, 7290 or 7295 at 1848, but suddenly at *1851, 7295 comes on with music fill; and 7285 is also there with CRI. Maybe receiver had been out of order. BUT CRI is scheduled on 7295 at 1900-2100 in English from East Turkistan. This had been ACI to IRRS after 1900, and now will be CCI!!! Including WORLD OF RADIO about to start at 1901! At 1857 the 7285 CRI signal cuts off and now we have a full collision of CRI and IRRS on 7295. To avoid QRM, the second hour at 19-20 should shift to 7285. I, gh, posted preceding at 1859. At 1902: Contrary to new sked from IRRS, has switched back to 7290 at 1900, WOR good on LSB avoiding ACI from 7295. Then at 1910, Alfredo Cotroneo of IRRS tells me: ``Glenn, You will be on 7290, as usual from 19-20 UTC. We will assess 7295 from 18-19 and decide whether to stay on 7295during that period, since 7290 18-19 UTC suffered from interference from 7285 (CRI) in some parts of the EU``.

Fox News-Talk radio had the wisdom last year to fire Starnes, after he sat back on his show in silence, while esteemed guest "Pastor" Robert Jeffress asserted, "all Democrats worship Moloch", a medieval demon-deity who allegedly advocated child-sacrifice. Perhaps Starnes will offer Jeffress his own daily show, to further propagate that kind of "patriotic" bilge, thus countering all them damn libtards in the media! Already trumpeting the NRA, no doubt we'll hear endless loads of this sort of crap on KWAM under Starnes' far-far-right guidance. Such a fine use for the "public" airwaves.
