** CUBA. 17730, Jan 20 at 2235, RHC is open carrier/dead air, still at 2253.
Supposed to be in French at this time.

Spanish with correct 5:37 TC, apologizing for ``dificuldades`` preventing
`Informativo Nuestra América` but instead a bit of Moncada group music, and
ordinary noticias titulares. Rare to hear them apologizing for SNAFUs, but in
the studio they don`t know how mixed up the transmitters can be, lest they be
apologizing all the time! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
**
NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Jan 20 at 2246, S8 pirate music, vamping two notes
alternating with a lot of percussion, then more melody. By 2256 much louder now
hitting S9; 2301 insert ID ``X-L-R-8``, more music. Larry Will in Maryland was
also hearing this at 2312, S5 rock/punk music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9455, Jan 20 at 2255, ``Jesus Saves`` IS and unID
language announcements alternating, poor S6 on an abandoned WRMI frequency, so
this is FEBC, 100 kW, 280 degrees from Bocaue, 2300-2330 in Iu Mien per Aoki.
Time to learn about another tongue only the missionaries care about
broadcasting: per EiBi readme.txt, spoken by 400 kilopersons each in Vietnam and
S China, a.k.a. merely Mien, abbr`d MIE or [ium] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** U S A. 9330v-CUSB, Jan 20 at 1850, WBCQ is
still BSing, i.e. The Overcomer, nothing special from the inauguration, as Allan
Weiner allegedly had planned; and 7490 is off, altho something was barely
audible there a couple hours earlier. At 1945, 9330 is still BS. After 2100,
7490 is on with usual Financial Survival show.
At 2232, I time 9330 BS
running 9 or 10 seconds behind himself on 7780 WRMI; while 7490 is amid usual
Friday show, `Behavior Night` of early recorded music, S9+30; and 5130 is not on
yet. At 2301, 5129.8-AM is now on with BS, and during this hour, Brother
HyStairical is on all three `BCQ transmitters, plus 7490, 9330.06. He is talking
about Bush and Blair as if they were still in office, and gives the date as
Wednesday October 10. What year would that be? It could have been 2001y or
2007y. Railing against the imminent imposition of a New World Order to be
controlled from Germany; yeah, right.
Meanwhile I`ve heard from webmaster
Larry Will about added BS hours:
``Hello Glenn, Brother Stair has once
again bought up all the available time on WBCQ. Robert at the station shared
with us the revised transmitter schedule for each of the WBCQ services. You can
infer from this that Brother Stair will be on these frequencies if that service
is not already dedicated to other programming. I'm assuming that the WOR
broadcasts on 9330 will continue, though I will follow up with Robert to be
sure. I'll get the online schedule updated shortly. Regards, Lw``
And
Robert had sent this:

7490, UT Sat Jan 21 at 0106 tune-in to WBCQ for `Allan Weiner
Worldwide` and hear acting president Thump`s inaugural address, contracted, as
the applause has been edited out (except where it overlaps). Finished at 0117,
it`s not AW, but Brad and Valerie filling in this week from the echoey GRITS
studio, inviting calls to 1-508-316-3975. They go on to critique the Leader,
certainly not what AW himself would have done; no calls yet, so 0123 to a song
parodying Trump.
GRITS` own time is UT Mon 00-01 on 5130v, i.e. vs 60
Minutes on CBS, so we should listen to their podcasts linked via:
Stands
for Ghost Riders In The Sky. Now, 5130 is off, and 9330 is Blalocking (Glenn
