BRAZIL. Re my remark that RVM has not been heard on 11750v lately:

Manuel M?ndez, Spain: "`11750,5, Voz Mission?ria, Cambori?, 2049-2104,
04-07, Portuguese, religious comments and songs. 25422."

Wolfgang Bueschel: ``11750.550 kHz on upper side flank of 11750
channel, much stronger than 49mb service. S=8-9 fair BrasPort sermon
at 03.51 UT July 6th.``

"`Hi Glenn. Regarding R?dio Voz Mission?ria, I?m hearing what I
believe to be them now (from about 2350 UT [July 6]) on 11750.55. Weak
sig and lots of lightning QRN, so it?s hard to follow, but seems to be
parallel to 5939.xx ? which is also not very good. Regards, Art
Delibert, Vineyard Haven, Mass"

But still missing from 9665v?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

GUAM. Perhaps we should check whether the typhoon affected KSDA
Guam. A bigger schedule than I expected; was it all really in effect?

https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A26&broadc=SDA

"`The typhoon directly hit Rota, an island between Guam and Tinian.
KSDA is about 65 miles to the southwest, so they may have missed the
strongest winds. Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas"

The two frequencies scheduled to be on at 1500 are on and making it
well into Hyderabad, India, SDR, 15215 in Kan, & 15530 in Tam.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

DXing on caradio with fender antenna only, so no manipulation; into my
own ears in real time, no recording, no RDS, no internet during

Database, as quoted. All times UT! Distances in km/statute miles added
from distancefromto.net, approx. city-to-city, not site-to-site:

that to NC, AL, GA, so where is there a 96.3 close to a J`ville? Let`s
start with NC where we are already; this one fits, quite close:
