** U S A. 9330, July 17 at 2314, WBCQ-6 is still off but there is that curious JBA carrier on 9333; no signals on 5130 or 6160v, only noisy 7490v, as I am assessing the situation in hour prior to AAAWWW.

Area 51 webcast at 2357 mentions ``slack`` several times, as in `Hour of` ? And about anal-retentiveness.

7490 webcast I switch to at 0000 UT Sat July 18 just as WTO theme is starting; by 0003 A&A opening as he always helps his sweetheart to adjust her microphonium; and right into politix which I don`t need to hear.

At 0004 recheck the A51 webcast and find it also running AAAWWW but several seconds delayed. Spotchex follow: at 0015 A51 is playing a song, so no longer with AAAWWW, where the lovebirds are still talking on 7490 webcast. At 0018 annoying Freddie has called; altho he has several Black friends, he doesn`t like this BLM stuff.

0023 back on A51, music, what is this? DJ talking about formerly on WZAK in Canton OH, after a bunch of country/drinking songs.

0048 on 7490 webcast, AW mentions ``9330 is down, with *another* transmitter problem``, but no further details, not now anyway.

At 0051, while AW is trying to read e-mail, Freddie is still on the phone interrupting with signal reports, including 5130 as 20 over S9, and as if AAAWWW is axually on it, so I check SW frequencies here:

At 0054, 5130 is buried in noise but I can tell it is AAAWWW, not the music on the A51 webcast. 6160- is also audible, weaker than 7490.

0100, 7490 webcast, AAAWWW wraps up just in time for Hal Turner theme.

0217, A51 webcast is still running with music so I listen again for a while. DJ says this show is all-beer songs and back-announces a number of titles; in a six-week theme series, last week wine, next week marijuana, so put in your requests now to Zombo`s Record Party on FB, but this show is pre-recorded not live.

IIRC, Zombo has appeared on WBCQ before, and he does mention WBCQ among other stations, but his name is not to be found on the WBCQ website schedule, nor even the Archive. Was on WZAK Canton at 4 am; also had been on WAPS; and did one --- only one --- show for KAOS on the west coast; finally ``This is WRCT 88.3, Zombo In Your Brain``. That`s a free-form station in Pittsburgh PA, and such a show is scheduled Fridays 10 am-1 pm EDT = 14-17 UT: http://www.wrct.org/show/897/ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15810, July 17 at 2244, open carrier S9-S7. Presumably WTWW-3 rarely turned on, test? Anyone hear programming earlier today? Too bad it`s too late to compare with neighbor 15825 WWCR which has already QSYed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
