WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST UPDATE JANUARY 1
Hi Glenn, Happy New Year! My latest Hitlist update. https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm
1) Guam - KTWR, TWR-Asia: Added entry, including blogspot page containing programme & frequency updates (Thanks to Mike Sabin, Asia Broadcast Technical Operations Director)
2) Romania - R Romania Int: Added link to RRM domestic service 2-week schedule. Play list for the Sunday Radio Concert Season programme on RRI can be found by checking the previous Friday entry at 1900 on the RRM webpage)
Unless there's a major change anywhere, the next update will be late January. Best wishes and 73 (Alan Roe, UK)
** COLOMBIA. Re: [WOR] 4940 kHz. - La Montana --- ``Happy New Year, Glenn! Believe the 2021 WRTH has 4940 as La Montana Colombia, 1 KW. Ron Howard``
So it has, page 166 - somehow I assumed it would not be in WRTH yet. [As only SW station in frequency list, location Maicao but:] Station DC26) as if it were in Bogotá. Info apparently from Rafael Rodríguez, who really is in Bogotá, as QSL manager just as he was for the 5910 & 6010 stations really in Puerto Lleras; but did not bother to inform us. The WRTH entry also shows an oficina address as Red 4-72 Unicentro, Bogotá. Does anyone ever really hear an ID as ``La Montana Colombia`` - or Montaña? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [non]. Rechecking for the ND beacons missing last night: still absent at 0253 UT Jan 2 are: 255 SW Stillwater; 341 EI Enid; 350 RG OKC. Enid got about 6 inches of snow overnight early UT January 1; somewhat melting during the day but plenty remains on ground. Fortunately not enough freezing rain icing here to cause problems before snowing.
On 341-MCW kHz I am hearing only OIN OberlIN, Kansas; on 350-USB, only dash and YKQ, which is really on 351-MCW from Fort Rupert - Waskaganish, Quebec; also on 351-MCW itself a mixture of YKQ and IN, which is really on 353 from International Falls, Minnesota (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7490v), UT Sat Jan 2 at 0100, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW``, turns out to be 99% political this week. ``Wake up; the Republic is at Stake``; Angela has been injured, sticking herself on a spine of a huge century plant by the Fla studio; but she still looks ``delicious``. Both of them have fallen for the conspiracy narrative that Trump had to have won, Biden is a joke but if inofficed will lead to takeover of America by socialist/communism headed by the CCP --- what`s that? Allan has a `brain fart`, then remembers it`s the Chinese Communist Party, which is trying to conquer the world, especially the US, including not least via its bio-weapon the COVID virus. [Not addressed, Occamly, why would the ChiCom capitalists want to kill off so many of their customers?? Not to mention the negative image.] After datestamp at 0121 that it is January 1, YOOL 2021, plays a 20-minute podcast? thru a phone-patch which tries to convince that there was massive elexion fraud, and since this thing has been banned from FB, YT and TW, it must be true! On and on; finally 0153 some e-mail, prayer and off. Simultaneously I was getting the new episode of Dr Who, which made a lot more sense (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Re `Escape From 2020` special on WBCQ:
``Hello Glenn, Glad you enjoyed the show. Listeners were duly warned that the first three minutes would be as ugly as the year, like the old man / new baby thing in images of yore. We did get beautiful soon after. I wish more entertainment programs would get into the act (pun intended) with specials. Long-term, time sharing might even be a way for two programs who can't pay their own way in isolation to get together and get on the air. Who knows. An eQSL is attached.

** U S A. 4980, Jan 2 at 0231, WRMI seems powered up to S9, axually readable with SMTV-sounding talk; ACI from 4985 RTTY and 4980 soon fades way down so maybe just a fluke. Again it`s barely too late to compare to next WRMI on 5010 which must have just closed, leaving 5010- Madagascar without a het.
5800, UT Sat Jan 2 at 0354, WRMI with pop music in Spanish, ID in Spanish, 0356 to Zorba fill music. I was going to check what occupy the 03-04 UT Sat hour this week; evidently neither `TRSW` nor `Encore` but should have got there earlier. Maybe more Freedom Synergy Radio? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9975, Jan 2 at 0249, KVOH is only S4-S5, insufficient; at 0303 I check it via TWR Bonaire SDR to find its longer skip reaching at S7-S8, sufficient with music and preaching. First wanted to check Key West Kiwi but it was offline (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
