According to http://www.dxinfocentre.com/mb.htm this was VCN in Rivière-au-Renard [Fox River], QC, with a weather broadcast which started at 0437 in English and French. Frequency is shared with three Nova Scotia stations at other hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1775, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 780, May 23 at 0122 UT, no signal from KSPI, 250 watt daytimer in Stillwater, which doesn`t have to go off until 0130 UT in May; 0145 UT in June and July. Yet another anomaly from this station. And no WBBM has faded in yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1210, May 22 at 0530 UT, weather from ``Today`s Country, 1210 KGYN``, then as if to reëmphasise it for us, multiple IDs with same slogan but different coverage segments, such as NE New Mexico, Canadian (TX NE panhandle town), etc. So now it`s pretty certain KGYN has abandoned the ``US Country`` branding, along with a switch of satellite music sources. Personally, I thought ``US Country`` had more class and a bit more individuality (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1430, May 24 at 0356 UT as I tune by, NWS robot is issuing flash flood warning for Tulsa County and naming many other towns around; so KTBZ has managed to break away from stupid sports talk. Tulsa is quite flood-prone with hills & dales. Suspect it`s on emergency day power & pattern, 25/5 kW, as I normally don`t hear it at night, when everything is pushed southwards, and 1430 occupied by KZQZ St Louis (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1550, May 24 at 0546 UT, multi-station ID too rapid to copy fully, for ``The Sports Animal``, including 1470 & 1490 (KVIN Vinita & KBIX Muskogee, resp.), some FMs and an FM translator, and 1550 which is KYAL Sapulpa, 2500/40 watts. Well, this is no 40 watts. Same pattern day & nite, major lobe SE, minor lobe west. Apparently regular stupid sports talk rather than weather emergency coverage here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1640, May 28 at 1316 UT, open carrier, dead air except for hum, from KZLS Enid/Hennessey/OKC. Ho, hum, not at all unusual for them; what a sorry excuse for a radio station (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1650, May 22 at 0517 UT, KYHN Sallisaw (a.k.a. Fort Smith AR market), I`m accustomed to hearing `Red Eye Radio` and then the same thing a few seconds later on 1640 KZLS --- but not any more. KZLS is still with RER, but 1650 with something else, some even further far-right wacko; soon refers to Alex Jones, so I guess it`s his show with a substitute, and not // WWCR 4840. Since these are replays of earlier in the day anyway, not expected to match now. BTW, KYHN night signal is nowhere as strong as it was months ago, when I now suspect they were running 10 kW day power instead of 1 kW night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1650, May 24 at 0542 UT, KYHN good signal now with `Red Eye Radio` and two seconds ahead of same on 1640 KZLS Enid/OKC; 1650 is almost synchronized with 1520 KOKC, as RER remains inexplicably on two stations in same market, more or less. Contrary to my last log after local midnite [CDT], when 1650 was with Alex Jones or something else. Per this sked: http://kyhnradio.com/schedule `Red Eye` is 7-nightly at 12-5 am; but home page http://kyhnradio.com/ claims Alex Jones is M-F at 9 am-12 pm (=noon), contrary to the schedule as 9 pm-midnite! Scowling Jones promo rotates with smiling Herman Cain, also as 9 am-12 pm = noon. All four far-right wackos are equally to be shunned (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 2899.75, May 22 at 0451 UT, JBA carrier as I continue to check for the KWHW Altus second harmonic.

Rx: mostly DX-398 or PL-880 with internal antenna only; Nissan stock caradio as specified; FRG-7 with E-W longwire as specified ** MEXICO. Unusual update to the AM and FM http://www.ift.org.mx/sites/default/files/contenidogeneral/industria/infraestructurafm28-04-15_1.pdf station tables in which the only changes seem to have been concession information on a couple AM-FM conversions no longer without AMs. (XEMU Piedras Negras, for instance, seems to be gone and all that's left is XHEMU.) Note the odd format, the old date with a _1 near it. TV has not been changed (Raymie Humbert, May 18, WTFDA Forum via DXLD) XEMU is 580, 5/2.5 kW, La Rancherita and can be a big QRM problem for WIBW at SRS/SSS, and any time at night, as it`s almost opposite direction thru Enid and unnullable. So now I`m looking for it, really gone for good? May 25 at 0540 some Mexican music is way under WIBW, but there are 7 or 8 other XEs on 580, all with lower listed night power. Further chex needed. If XEMU is off as a result of Mexican government policy to migrate AMs to FMs, that should open up the frequency in SW to Central TX in case any US station would like it (yet far enough from adjacents in Dallas and Austin, co-channel in Lubbock). Mexico could hardly insist on FCC honoring such a deleted listing, tho ex-Canadians who have voluntarily quit AM for FM still must be protected, as it`s conceivable a new station could erupt on an open frequency there such as 580 or 700 in Alberta (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1775, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 1300, May 27 at 0642 UT, romantic music in Spanish, loops WSW, fast SAH against others. Presumed XEP Juárez, Chihua2, but since it`s dominating the frequency, I can`t believe it`s on 200 watt night power instead of 38 kW day. BTW, Fred Cantú`s http://www.mexicoradiotv.com site is still ``temporarily unavailable``. I fear it is permanently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO [and non]. 1570, May 26 at 0647 UT, XERF with IMER call-in about the tornado that hit Ciudad Acuña; strangely, by 0652 they are playing a Spanish song to the tune of ``Fascination``, while fighting QRM from KBCV Missouri (see USA log). XERF should have been more interesting listening earlier. And you should have heard how Laura Whatshername butchered ``Ciudad Acuña`` on BBC World News America, May 25 after 22 UT via OETA. How do you get to be anchorette of a major network newscast without knowing the first thing about pronouncing Spanish? Or not even knowing that she needed to look it up, practice? At least the other anchorette, Katty Kay {is that her real name?}, was distancing herself from uttering ``Los Angeleeez`` when recently originating from there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) --- End Message --- ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
