** BRAZIL. 11815, May 11 at 0507, R. Brasil Central barely audible, no chance vs
the scratchy spur from 11780 RNB, matched as usual by another one around 11745

** BURUNDI [non]. VOA has just
added broadcasts to Burundi, as in a press release sent at 1548 UT May 11, and
also here:
It
even gives SW times and frequencies! But no sites:
0400-0530 & 1930-2000
on 7350, 9815, 11905
1600-1630 on 13630, 15460, 17530
13630 is already
scheduled from 1630 in Portuguese via Botswana
15460 & 17530 already
scheduled 1600-1630 Sats only as `Kin` language via São Tomé. I didn`t get to
checking these three until 1629 May 11, none heard, as propagation is certainly
subnormal, and all supposed to continue past 1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, May 11 at 1524 UT, KETU/KEOR carrier
is on, from the direxion of Sperry but very weak and can`t make out any
modulation. This is one of its characteristic modes, which could last for
months: transmitter on at much reduced power, accomplishing nothing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1640, May 11 at 1200 UT,
KZLS Enid-Hennessey-OKC, yet again open carrier/dead air with some hum. Not
checked again until 1538 UT when it is remodulating. Storm/power outage could be
no excuse this time. Amazing how cavalierly some stations are managed around
here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [and non].
11670, Sunday May 10 at 2258, collision between Brother Scare via WHRI, and
Radio Habana Cuba, making SAH of about 3.8 Hz, but WHRI goes off a minute later.
Latest HFCC regs for WHRI show 250 kW, 173 degrees in SpaEng, daily at 20-21,
and Sat/Sun at 22-23. No RHC in HFCC, of course, but own sked shows 11670 at
23-04, so only a brief overlap as long as it doesn`t come on earlier. BTW, if
you reach an RHC frequency schedule via the /eo Esperanto page, it`s still the
old expired B-14 one. Go back to the main Spanish homepage and find A-15 in pdf
on a drop-down under Interesantes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** SUDAN [and non]. After finding R. Dabanga on 11645 ex-11650,
May 10, I check again May 11 at 0506, but can`t hear it on either --- just tone
jamming on 11650. Meanwhile, Ivo issued a schedule with 11645 as a new frequency
as if it were a permanent change, which remains to be heard.
13800, the
other R. Dabanga frequency, checked May 11 at 0508: hi-pitched tone jamming but
here too cannot hear any Dabanga. Could it be off or totally
moved/rescheduled?
I haven`t checked lately for their evening broadcast,
but do so May 11 at 1523, and can`t hear it on any of: 15150, 15550 (just WJHR)
or 17600. Propagation however, has been degraded with K-indices of 4 at 06 and 3
at 15 UT May 11. Madagascar site should still be getting thru if not Vatican

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1772
monitoring: not confirmed Sunday May 10 at 2100 on WRMI 15770; nor on JBA 7570.
Recheck of WRMI schedule for 21-22 still shows on 15770, Sundays at 2100-2130,
WORLD OF RADIO; and on 7570, End Times Coming, which is apparently what we were
hearing on both. System D and System F programming for reasons unknown often
gets mixed up, or only one or the other on both frequencies.
WOR 1772 is
confirmed on the much more reliable Sunday 2300 transmission via WRMI 11580. WOR
1772 also confirmed on Area 51 webcast, starting UT Monday May 11 at 0300, but
WBCQ 5110v unchecked, which I should have, considering what happened last week.
Next:
Tue 1100 WRMI 9955
Wed 0630 HLR 7265-CUSB
Wed
1315 WRMI 9955
Wed 1430 HLR 7265-CUSB
Wed 2100 WBCQ 7490v

** U S A. 1280, May 11 at 1200 UT, CBS
News Update ending in less than a minute, a far cry from an extended World News
Roundup but mentioned some storm damage at ``Corsica``, Texas --- meaning
Corsicana?? [10 inches of rain, a drowning per Corsicana Daily Sun]. Then ``More
country than you can shake a stick at --- stick not included, [sung:],
K-S-O-K``, ha ha, from my nearby Ark. City KS station (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
