** CUBA. 15230, Dec 26 at 2325, RHC is S9 but just barely modulated in Brazuguese. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY [and non]. P.P.S. to the Gruss an Bord saga, in the WOR iog: ``WRMI initially went to music after an ID at 2100 UT but they joined the Gruss an Bord church service some minutes later. WRMI carried the whole last hour and at least the beginning of the news bulletin/program starting at 2200. Could only listen for a minute past 22:00 as the Christmas Eve dinner was on the table. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. -- Richard Langley``
``No such shortwave relay between 2100 and 2200 was booked at all. I they did it for the reasons I suspect: I doubt that it saved anything.
Anyway, I meanwhile got it confirmed that indeed in the old format until last year the last round of recorded greetings went out via NDR Info Spezial only. And the accidental shortwave relay of the children`s programming is particularly ironic: Until last year it was part of the FM program schedule and then thrown out there as part of the reformatting.
Their farewell from FM was a masterpiece of the genre to spice children`s programming with satire and sarcasm for adults. Those who understand German should not miss it, it's a miracle that no one did prevent it from being broadcast.

** ITALY. 207 kHz, Dec 26 at 2103.7 tune-in via Noale SDR, immediately hear S S S, 3 Morse dots repeated several times, then long talk in Italian, unreadable. It`s S6 with fast SAH, Iceland? Carrier offset up to 1 Hz minus. So AM Italia is still commemorating the Marconi anniversary, a biweek after the original date December 12 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PERU [and non]. 4808.81V, Dec 27 at 0025, Santiago, Chile SDR lox onto a JBA carrier here, after Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, Brasil tipped the WOR iog: ``Hi all. R. Logos is on at 0005 UT on 4808 (to avoid noise on 4810). Religious music. 73 Lucio Brasil``
My recheck via same SDR at 0148 finds it on 4808.83V. Meanwhile, direct at 0127, the only carrier I can detect is very close to 4810.00. There is no longer any other known broadcaster, like India, around 4810. The noise is this per EiBi: ``4810.1 0000-2400 Martinique FUF French Navy STANAG F Car u`` but the bulk of it is above 4811. At 0155 I check another SDR, Brasília #1, and hear S3/S5 the religious music past 0202, no ID break, but displays only ~5 Hz below 4810.000. Must listen in LSB to avoid the STANAG (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2118 monitoring: as usual I zzz thru the Sun Dec 26 airing at 1330 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292, Germany. Did anyone hear it?

Also confirmed UT Monday December 27 at 0230 on WRN N America webcast
Also confirmed UT Monday December 27 at 0400 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, minus 55 Hz offset at Maryland SDR = 6159.945, S5-S6. Just before 0429, my final words after ``concluding ----`` chopped off for HRI to start. What`s the big hurry??? At least no RHC ACI tonight since it`s on 9700 instead of 6165, but from *0430 HRI gets ACI from NHK Russian via Nauen, Germany. NHK is scheduled on 6165 until 0500* and again *0600-0630 in Arabic via France. Next WORs:
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?]
