** CANADA. 680, Jan 18 at 0718 UT tune-in, ``CJOB Weather``
immediately lots of forecast temps, all plenty minus, and back to
talkshow on CORUS Radio Network. Just heard 990 CBW so figured CJOB
might be in again, invading America instead of serving the Arctic.
OTOH, non-direxional CBW is always welcome, our only access to CBC
Radio 1 on MW; sometimes lost to auroral zone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 2749 USB, Jan 18 at 0745 UT, YL with marine weather. CCG
info shows it`s VCO Sydney NS via Port Caledonia starting at 0740.
Nothing heard on 2598 USB now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY. 3955, Jan 18 at 1800-1900 UT, via Channel 292, enjoyed
monthly on third Sat broadcast of `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, this
time with Kurdish music, good into UTwente. Long sets and not much
talk about it, but that`s OK. Scheduling inconvenient, simul with Met
Opera and Talking Machine Show, so I tape delayed this while listening
to the others `live`. Next month: mostly music from the Bahamas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 95.1 and 1670, Enid`s unlicensed music stations, still
going as before circa 1850 UT downtown check Jan 18 (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)
** U S A. 245 MCW kHz, Jan 18 at 0725 UT, one of few ND beacons making
it thru noise level is FS, 100 watts from Sioux FallS, SD.
420 MCW kHz, Jan 18 at 0737 UT, one other NDB arrival, not new but
somewhat unusual, is PK, 25 watts at Olathe KS (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2278 monitoring: Not confirmed UT Saturday
January 18 at 0400 on WTWW-2, 5085, nor expected as still off the air
awaiting parts from China. #2 does have webcast, but something other
than WOR! Presumably SFAWPPPP [Scriptures for America Worldwide,
passed Pastor Pete Peters].
Confirmed Saturday January 18 at 1550 the 1530 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.002-, S9/+15 into UTwente, with ACI from Chicom 6165 at S9+10/20,
evitable by LSB tuning and/or reduced bandwidth. 3975 not yet on.
Confirmed Saturday January 18 at 1700 on WRN North America webcast.
Missed checking Sat Jan 18 at 1830 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975; anyone
hear it?
Also confirmed Saturday January 18 at 2030 on WRN North America
webcast.
Confirmed Saturday January 18 at 2042 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, VG S9+20
into nearby SDR, about 4 minutes into so the 2030v started circa
2038.

ON and Seminole FL, a check in US funds to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684,
Enid OK 73702.
One may also contribute via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, UT Sat Jan 18 at 0045, into NH
SDR: 3265, 5130 and 6160 all OFF. 7490 -76 Hz with FKB, S7/S9 and
usual USAGM ACI from 7495. 9330 in WLCR Portuguese is also S7/S9. But
at *0055, 5130 -20 Hz = 5129.980 cuts on with IS & ID, S9/+10. At
0100, 6160 is now on with something else, while 7490- & 5130- join for
WTO theme, and first interjexion, ``couple more days and the world
changes again`` and later one word, ``speed``. Says theme is played
from cassette tape; Angela not yet in the Fla studio. Can`t keep all
the liquor here straight, but Al is not drunk. He does a lot of
reading in the bathroom, has for years. Says simul now on 7 & 5, but a
surprise is coming up next week with third `new` frequency for the
show.
0109, does Glenn Hauser listen to AAAWWW? [does Allan read my
reports?]. He doesn`t have a life, has written stuff about me and WBCQ
that is not true. [like what? correxions welcome]. Must be 180 years
old. [Why does he bring me up now, anyway?] Al hated high school,
especially rest room and would not shit until as soon as he got home.
0116 plays ``Angela`s favorite song``, some C&W tune. 0122 fiddling
around. 0123 plays another tune. 0127 he doesn`t want any Doritos,
another song. 0133 outro as Jefferson Starship`s ``Runaway``.
Datestamp as 17 of Jan YOOLF 2025. Angela`s motto: animals, plants,
music, in that order. Both have ponytails. *rump will soon fix
everything. Concern about AI replacing human radio hosts. FCC axions
against pirates. 0142 Switzerland closes ``obsolete`` FM radio, what??
US radio stats, FCC figures of stations in different categories.
[Reason there are so many NCEs: mostly gospel huxters.] 0151 going
thru emails, including Free Radio Weekly, #1504 just in as rotating
editor Larry Will publishes it in less than a bihour after weekly
deadline. ``Glenn Hauser, we love you``. [Whew]. SWL Fest info. After
many SW pirate band station mentions, Oklahoma`s 1670 and 95.1
stations but not connecting those reports to me. 0200 still in email,
plug hamfest tomorrow somewhere, Angela not interested in going. 0202
prayer, 0202.7 JIP Hal Turner way late, but by now I`m listening to
the Area 51 stream, which switches to a song instead about long hair.
As for mystery ``new`` frequency, HFCC shows only two BCQs not in use
besides 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9: 13840 & 13850 via Bulgaria at other hours;
presumably for WLCR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
