at 0500-0600 for S Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [non]. 6170, Jan 17 at 0510, ``Salaam Aleikum`` so is it
Arabic? No, African language S9+10/20. EiBi shows it`s Global Talk
America - the successor to VOA, in Hausa at 0500-0530 via ASCENSION
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2330 monitoring: indeed not confirmed UT
Saturday January 17 at 0400 as WTWW 5085 remains off the air. George
McClintock explains: ``Appears to be the solid state driver is not
working. Also the heat exchanger
is not cooling the transmitter down sufficiently. George McClintock
1-16-2026`` - *maybe* if restored, WOR can be played at 0400 UT Sunday
or Monday.
Confirmed Saturday January 17 at 1543 the 1530 on SW Radio

As a noncommercial public service program, financial support
appreciated. Thanks this week to Terry Colgan of Texas Radio SW for a
contribution via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com, and says, ``Thanks
for another year of dedication to keeping listeners and DXers
up to date on the state of shortwave radio.``
One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7490-, UT Sat Jan 17 at 0516, ``so long from Amos `n`
Andy``, music, S9+10/20. Is this on the WBCQ program schedule? Of
course not! Supposedly off after 0500* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5850, YT Sat Jan 17 at 0730, Deutsche Welle on WRN via WRMI
// weaker 7780; but at 0754 recheck, classical music, not DW,
announcement by Brice about Josquin des Prez, so a fragment of
`Encore` is used as filler?! Not scheduled at this hour. That composer
not on current playlists. Something`s odd at Okee. 0759 cut to
Everglades ID, 0800 gospel huxter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 880, Jan 17 at 0448 UT, something in Spanish clashing with
KRVN Nebraska in English, sometimes overcoming it. DF on the PL660 as
NW/SE, what? Could it be TGJ I used to hear decades ago? 0449
``?goooaaaalll!!!``, local? ads, phone 844-464-8796, like a toll-free
number in the USA. Talking about football, US involved, ``La radio del
Mundial 2026``, ``jugamos junto a ti`` and interview partly in
English! fade around 0500 ID time. Makes a SAH of 52/minute with KRVN
= slightly less than 1 Hz. 0506 ad in English 1-844-262-4729. Finally
realize this must be KJOZ Conroe TX, rimshooter to Houston where it`s
addressed, in mwlist is now ``Latino Sports``, so that explains the
bilingualism. NRC AM Log had KJOZ as U4 10/1 kW, SS:REL in the Radio
Visi?n Latina group, but not anymore. Radio-locator has yet another
identity for KJOZ, ``La Calle 102.5`` = The Street 102.5? What
signified that? Site is Conroe, and barely reaches Houston with
`local` contour on night pattern with a notch toward WHSQ, not a
problem thisaway.
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KJOZ&service=AM&h=N
Day pattern more or less circular but with sea gain to the SE. I still
suspect it were on day power. Normally I don`t hear any SS QRM to
KRVN, but condx somewhat auroral. Search shows the -8796 number has
something to do with Verizon; -4729 unknown (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1700 kHz, Jan 17 at 0439 UT, S9+20/10 of dead air, no doubt
KKLF Richardson TX again with problems. Other reports in IRCA
https://groups.io/g/IRCA/topic/117242533
suggest it`s no longer R. Jalape?o, but IDs as R. F?rmula, or plays
Christian music in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
