I used to listen to AWR Wavescan regularly as a podcast but it hasn't been
updated since October 20th in various podcast aggregators. I heard that it
became its own program and no longer associated with AWR but where can I
find it? Is it still on? The AWR site hasn't been updated since 10/20
either (https://awr.org/program/engmi_wav/).

** CUBA. 5025, Nov 23 at 0732, R. Rebelde back on with immediate ID
after missing several days, but weaker than before, only S9+20 vs
noise level S9+15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 660, Nov 23 at 0236 UT, ``660 AM y 98.1 FM ... sabemos c?mo
juega``. If KTNN is properly nulling toward NYC, 660 is open for DX,
and this Spanish happens to be atop as I tuneby. Then commences
research, as I am rather sure about ``98.1``. Could it be USA? No, the
only USSS in NRC AM Log is lowpower in Oregon and also religious.
However mwlist shows WDYZ Altamonte Springs FL is ``Poder 660``, but
no connexion to 98.1; while NRC Log has that one with ESPN in English
and FM on 105.5. Cuba has a Progreso on 660, and three unrelated FMs
on 98.1. Surely this is Mexico, not Guatemala either where there is no
660.
The Mexicans usually or previously heard on 660 are XEEY, 50/10 kW in
Aguascalientes; XEDTL, 50/10 kW in CDMX; and XEFZ, 10/1 kW in
Monterrey, but there are a few others. So I search for a correlation
with 98.1. WTFDA FM DB shows no 98.1 Mex relaying a 660. IRCA Mexican
log has no 660/98.1 match, but digging deeper, in Quintana Roo there
are sibling stations of same group, per own website
https://sqcs.com.mx/radiochansantacruz/ -- altho not known to be
simulcasting: 660 XECPR, Felipe Carillo Puerto, Radio Chan Santa Cruz;
and 98.1 XHPYA-FM, Playa del Carmen, Riviera 98.1 FM. Monterrey and
CDMX don`t have a 660/98.1 match. In Aguascalientes, XEEY`s FM is on
102.9; the 98.1 there is a separate station. So it looks like could be
XECPR, in IRCA as 30 kW daypower, ``Radio Chan Santa Cruz, Frecuencia
Maya, Radio 660``. The ``sabemos c?mo juega`` slogan implies a sports
format. In IRCA the only one partially desportive is XEFZ. Perhaps
more likely than QRoo is that one of the other three has had a
realignment with a 98.1 since latest info in these references.
I ran the above by Tim Hall, who replied: ``Hi Glenn, I'm away from my
notes all day visiting with family today, but offhand I suspect it's
XEFZ ABC Deportes, which is // XHGBO-92.1. I think I may have recently
heard that slogan myself. 73 Tim``
Well, I might have misheard ``ocho`` for ``dos``, leading me on such a
wild goose chase? If not more monitoring of 660 direct, maybe would
hear likewise on XEFZ webcast labeled ABC Deportes:
https://gruporadioalegria.mx/#/
Finally: at 0013 Nov 24 on webcast, full ID including ``sabemos c?mo
se juega`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Nov 23 at 0738, Station YHWH running late
again, JBA. Eric Fetters-Walp in WA reported him direct at 0405; Ron
Howard was still hearing him at 0550 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 338 MCW kHz, Nov 23 at 1622, JBA carrier, most
likely TU in Tulsa, rather than RYN Tucson which makes it at night. Vs
constant high local noise level, only a few are detectable in daytime,
such as Kansies on 332, 395, 407, Okies on 255, 515 - and yes, Enid`s
EI is still OFF 341, forever? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004-, Nov 23 at 2304, VOT not off the air,
olds in English underway, S9/+10 into UTwente with humbuzz and 6CI
underneath. After music break, 2325 `Turkey`s Geomarked Products`
about spinach & meatballs, over already at 2327 music. 2351
multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2354 s/off as if 1330 on 13635:
something`s always awry at Ankara. 2354.6 IS briefly and off just
before 2355* uncovering Chinese (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2270 monitoring: Not confirmed UT
Saturday November 23 at 0400 on 5085, as WTWW is still absent.
Confirmed Saturday November 23 at 1545 the 1530 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.001, S9/+10 into UTwente with usual ACI from 6165, CRI in Pashto
via Urumqi, S9+5/10 mostly evitable by LSB tuning.
Also confirmed Saturday November 23 at 1833 the 1830 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.002-, S9+20 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday November 23 at 2030 on WRN North America
stream and WRMI webcast only.
Also confirmed Saturday November 23 from 2100 the 2030v on WA0RCR,

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VENEZOMBIA. 4940, Nov 23 at 0730 no signal from the 4940 station,
nor 24 hours earlier but usually on overnight. Also missing earlier
evening Nov 23. Some report this as VENEZUELA, others as COLOMBIA. I
think V more likely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9167-9212 approx., Nov 23 at 0740, very strong
multi-carrier, multi-tonal broadband signal, what is this? Same sound
heard at 0739 down to 7675, but cut off before I could find the upper
limit, tuning down from 7730 WRMI. Listening in AM, it`s more or less
a constant pitch tone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9490, Nov 23 at 0743, open carrier of S6/S8. This is
during the English hour from TIBET, but unlikely that. Maybe France,
Philippines, Bulgaria, Taiwan, or Turkey testing instead of own far
different scheduled hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
This report dispatched at 0018 UT November 24
