Checking up 31mb at 1100 UT on Jan. 1, 2024: new 1100 UT English broadcast from KBS World Radio on 9570 kHz is not heard at all; in fact it could be a QRM problem with KNLS-Alaska in Russian on same time/freq., and KNLS was noted with IS, announcements in Russian, then Christian music at 1101 UT, SIO 353. Heard on Grundig G5 with whip, and Chinese signals are found on most 31mb channels. (Joe Hanlon-NJ-USA, wor Jan 01) Re: KBSWR new 11 UT on 9570 no-show.

It just dawned on me that the ABC Deportes format was 24h when it was on 570, so I should have realized that the 24h schedule would probably continue when the format moved to 660. This raises another question: since the ABC Noticias format moved from 660 to 1310 as part of the same format shuffle, I wonder if the 1310 ended up being 1200-0600 (as it had been on 660, at least at some point in the past), or if 1310 might be 24h by now. I need to check that before next year's Log comes out. 73 Tim`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].
