** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring: confirmed Saturday August 28 from 1800:33 on IRRS SW via Italia AM, 918 kHz, VG S9+22 into nearby Noale SDR. As usual, playing `Aïda` march theme from before 1759, quick ID and then WOR --- BUT simulmonitoring 7290 via UTwente, NO IRRS SIGNAL from Bulgaria at start nor past 1830, just that weak Chinese before 1800, its ToH timesignal, and a few more minutes, vs RTTY warbling on the plus side. I let 7290 run the entire semihour in case it cut on; there were one or two blips which might have been attempts, or more likely, QRM.

Also confirmed Sat Aug 28 from 1950 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, VG S9+8 into nearby SDR. Next:

** U S A. 12160, Sat Aug 28 at 1728, the last minutes of scratchy lo-fi ancient record or cylinder music, no closing announcement, just quick WWCR ID and intro a Nashville gospel huxter. `The Talking Machine Show`, misnamed as most of the old recordings are music, not talk! scheduled 1700 UT Saturdays. I search the latest, Aug 1, WWCR skedgrids and do not find *any* other time for it now! Used to fill several slots, and I do mean fill, subject to time being sold off. Perhaps the only WWCR program worth listening to, certainly the only one itself produces, i.e. by engineer Phil Patton. 12160 at midday here one megameter away usually provides a VG signal, like today S9+10/20.

There also used to be another similar show but can`t remember the name and don`t see any sign of it on sked either, tsk2. O, maybe this be it, from Alan Roe`s latest, July, Music Programmes on Shortwave --- `Last Radio Playing`, Wed 23-24 UT on 6115, only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1110 kHz, Aug 28 at 0646 UT, `C2CAM` has been discussing SW numbers stations on KFAB Omaha, which is normally a loud & clear affiliate to here, but now I am also hearing a weak pre-echo. C2CAM affiliate list shows three others: KBND in Oregon, but it`s direxional west into Pacific at night; KAOI in Hawaii, ND but doesn`t start until 0800; and WBT Charlotte NC, of course the latter despite its two major 50 kW night lobes to the NE and south, very little thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
