Re: [WOR] Washington Post:
China to pull BBC News off the air, state broadcast regulator says.
Chinese-language content is not the subject here anyway. BBC World News
is an exclusively English-language TV channel, its cable distribution in
China was reportedly quite limited (not part of packages available to
"ordinary" people) and routinely censored:
<https:\\twitter.com/StephenMcDonell/status/1263638334372548608>
So it's rather a symbolic step in retaliation for Ofcom withdrawing its
licence a week ago, likewise resulting in the program being removed from
British TV platforms immediately. By the way, can anyone open
<http://nrta.gov.cn>
No server connection here.
What I find much more interesting is how the BBC is now out in Hong Kong,
too. So far no statement from them. I'm curious if they will again go the
appeasement route like in 2017 when RTHK had already relegated them to the
night hours or will, perhaps, communicate the development this time in the
same manner than recently the end of their cooperation with Aaj TV in
Pakistan, thus making RTHK managers losing their faces.

Related to this, CGTN is off the air in Germany from today after the Ofcom

from other states to allow for trans-national television and it seems like
CGTN was relying on the Ofcom license in Europe.

Subject: [WOR] BBC Monitoring on RTHK/BBCWS
Opinion divided in Hong Kong over move to stop relaying BBC
By BBC Monitoring
Commentators in Hong Kong are split over a decision by the local
public-service broadcaster to stop airing BBC World Service content.
State media in mainland China, however, are applauding the national
media regulator's decision to disallow the airing of BBC World News TV.
Hong Kong reactions
The pro-Beijing daily Wen Wei Po has supported the decision by local
public-service broadcaster Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) to suspend
the relaying of radio content from the BBC World Service, effective
from 12 February.
RTHK has also stopped airing a weekly programme in Cantonese produced
by the BBC Chinese Service.
A day after these developments, Wen Wei Po has reported a reaction from
Leung Chun-ying (see the image below), a former chief executive of Hong
Kong who's also an insider of the Communist Party of China, as he is
the vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's
Political Consultative Conference, a party advisory body.
The paper quotes a post from Leung on Chinese social media where he
reprimanded some RTHK members who consider the BBC a role model.
"Radio Hong Kong was set up for the need of the UK governing Hong Kong
and for the benefit of the UK. Please don't be naive any more," Leung
said.
He added: "Yes, RTHK is a public broadcaster. To be exact, it is a
public broadcaster in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of
the People's Republic of China, and not a public broadcaster in
Britain."
Leung then went on to say: "Back then, all the British government
departments in Hong Kong, including RTHK under the Broadcasting
Department followed the British flag. Today's RTHK must also comply
with the Chinese five-star red flag in the matter related to foreign
affairs."

** CUBA [and non]. 13700, Feb 13 at 1548, RHC is incredibly JBA with a
SAH no doubt Brother Scare Bulgaria. Tuning down the band, figured
13700 would be off since there were no spurs. Meanwhile, // music on
11760 is S9+20 but distorted. Soon mentions this being Dia Mundial de
la Radio as declared by UNESCO. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
Recheck at 1557, now the extremely distorted FMish spurblobs with F#
tone are back, as fundamental 13700-AM has charged up to full power:
approx. 13560, 13630, 13770 S8-S9, 13840, 13910-trace, i.e. ~70 kHz
intervals. Something`s always wrong at RHC; 1558 IS and all go off by
1600* uncovering a JBA carrier on 13700, i.e. per Aoki/NDXC,
Kostinbrod, Bulgaria, still BSing supposedly until 1800 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** ERITREA [non]. 17545.06V, Sat Feb 13 at 1557, JBA Bayto Yaikl on
one of two weekly RMI-brokered emissions via FRANCE at 1530-1600 Wed &
Sat. As always, this defective Issoudun transmitter is
cycling/wobbling up and down in frequency, as I try to measure it,
roughly 17545.055 to 17545.065 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15825, Feb 13 at 2142, no signal from WWCR-1, not even the
usual JBA carrier within the normal skip zone at 1 megameter at 15-16
MHz. 6115, also no signal for WWCR-1 on its next frequency from 2200.
Ivo Ivanov also noted no signal earlier today at 0645 on 3215, the
WWCR-1 frequency at 02-12 UT. This is the same transmitter which for
months, yea years, has been squealing, ``I`m sick! Please help me``.
John Jurasek, the VORW, soon noted at 0713, also to the WOR iog:
``It looks like there may be some technical problems - this is now
posted on their website: "WWCR expects to experience problems with
operation on 3.215 MHz for several days. Parts cannot be ordered to
fix the problem quickly, due to a temporary closure with a parts
vendor." All the best, John J. (Florida)``
Looking at the WWCR-1 program schedule, this means that John`s
``VROW`` [sic], one of very few non-gospel huxter shows, will not be
heard as scheduled Saturday at 23-24 on 6115. But why does WWCR
website mention 3215 only without the other two daily #1 frequencies?
