** OKLAHOMA. 89.3, May 15 at 1629 UT, ``Radio 74, The Answer`` non-ID still from KIEL Loyal OK. This 3.8 kW station at 47 meters is not very far, but not always audible here without a little help from the troposphere. Gospel huxter. OK has six other lower-powered stations on 89.3.
92.1, May 15 at 1631 UT, Spanish and praise music, presumed KAMG-LP Enid back on after several weeks` absence (and before that, dead air). Much weaker than other LPs in Enid, 94.3 and 99.9, and still there circa 1900 UT check May 16; driving around Enid, not solid signal at all, and modulation somewhat over- (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1877 monitoring: confirmed Monday May 15 at 2355 the 2330 airing on WBCQ 9330.20v-CUSB, good S9. Also confirmed UT Tue May 16 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, very good S9+45.

This hour most days is blank on the WRMI skedgrid, and formerly filled with `World Music`. I am afraid the WM music loop has been retired, as we no longer hear any of the familiar tunes (except sometimes as filler for a minute or three between programs on various frequencies). Altho ``Up2 & Away`` was done to death, we miss most of the others. Same applies to the 14-15 UT hour on 11580, following Ukraine weekdays until 1400 and before BS starts at 1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 12105, May 16 at 0042, WTWW-3 yet again in dead air at S7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 1480, May 16 at 1232 UT, yes, KBXD Dallas has a new ``renter`` --- Spanish monolog preaching, Jesucristo-this & that, and plugging newly on 14-80; mostly below KQAM which I can`t null completely, making a 72/minute SAH = 1.2 Hz. It`s a pain to have to listen to the latter, with a Wichita local host Trumpster, still partisan to the corrupt, treasonous, incompetent, mis-elected Trumpence regime. The preacher mentions another AM frequency before 14-80, which I have trouble copying; at 1239 UT brief CCI from a third station with praise music. KBXD fading down as hourtop approaches, but 1258 UT canned English ID as heard befoe, ``KBXD, 1480, Dallas``, a bit of music, and then Spanish ID mentioning Wylie-Dallas-Fort Worth, studio address, fade; 1301 UT a 972 AC phone number, YL now; 1302 UT Spanish song and repeated requests by a different OM for reception reports, how far are they reaching now that they have 50,000 watts on 1480, Waco? I finally copy the first frequency definitely as 700, and apparently going to do this until next program at 8:15 am CT. So 1480 is duplicating 700 KHSE, CoL Wylie, which counts upon only 1500/920 watts U4. Too late this morning to get it, altho under best conditions is barely audible on groundwave and at night skywave with plenty WLW QRM.
