** CUBA [and non]. 9790, Jan 24 at 0352, CRI relay is back to VG level unlike last night, while 9710 RHC is merely good. Strange propagation tonight; nearest other SW site, WRMI, is JBA on 9955, but Global 24 from there on 9395 is good with jazz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 760, Jan 24 at 0348, amid music, announcement as ``ABC`` and PSA for Tribunal Electoral del Estado de México, both of which clinch the inhabitant of the WJR null from here as XEABC. Elexions are coming up in México, so expect a lot more of these, national and state-specific (G lenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 980, Jan 24 at 0403, amid the QRM, make out ID as ``9-80, a través de Nueva Rosita, 11 grados``, norteña music, which per WRTH is 5/0.5 kW from Nueva Rosita, Coahuila, slogan ``La que gusta más`` which I am yet to hear. IRCA makes it ``La que le gusta más``, and says frequency varies -2 kHz --- certainly no such variation noticed here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH AFRICA. 3320, Jan 24 at 0348, Sonder Grense good with pop music, Afrikaans announcements, but nothing on 3345 --- because Channel Africa is M-F only, and as we all know, nothing ever happens on weekends (Glenn Hauser, oK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1757 monitoring: confirmed Fri Jan 23 at 2130.5 on WRMI 7570, quite stronger than // 15770. Next:

** U S A. 3185 & 5050, Jan 24 at 0347, both WWRBs are on tonite, with other huxtering and BS respectively (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, Jan 24 at 0347, WTWW-2 is off, and seems to have been off for a few days now, nor on 9930 in daytime. Same old story. Might be more active weekend with Ted shows, should it be operational.
Here`s a look at the WTWW site from a quadcopter, via Rob Wagner, MEDXR blog:http://youtu.be/yckBR9i6V_w
BTW, if you hear BS on 9930 again, Ivo Ivanov thinx it`s T8WH, which means he also might be back on WHRI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1510, Jan 24 at 0354 UT, I`m after a definite ID from the CBS Sports station I have heard a couple of times, presumed to be 5 kW daytimer KBED Nederland (Beaumont) TX. Not a word of Dutch, but 0356 ad or PSA for some ``Southeast Texas Coalition``, so that`s it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1520, Jan 24 at 0354 UT, local sports talk, post-game show? Not // 1510 with CBS Sports. KOKC OKC is OFF again!! So this is obviously the cheatin` Minnesotan again with the frequency all to itself. 0358 PSA for Rosacea; 0359 PSA for adopting cats, and ``powered by CBS Sports Radio, Sports Radio 15-20, The Ticket``, weather by YL, and finally legal ID as ``KOLM-AM Rochester``. (Note: it`s not legal; there is no -AM suffix!), and joins CBS Sports Radio for news now // a word apart from 1510 KBED. News on hour from CBSSR is all about sports too; can`t be bothered with the real world which CBS otherwise covers competently. Unfortunately, silly ballgames intrude there too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
