When we reawoke after sunrise, found Suddenlink cable and internet out, and must have been widespread. Automated reply by phone said they were working on it, but remained out all day and into next night. One cable box retained last frame from a channel with time label converting to 1402 UT. Meanwhile, we also found that main direxional rooftop TV antenna was blown down. Later, surprised to find most of the OKC signals 100 km away were still being received from its random position where it landed on the roof! The main SW/MW longwire survived, but not much time for monitoring with other repairs and cleanup to be done. We were lucky as thousands of other Enidians were without power all day including businesses circa downtown Enid, traffic signals here and there. https://www.enidnews.com/news/updated-storms-knock-out-power-to-thousands-in-enid-area-damage-trees-structures/article_4259d2e4-9c51-11ea-a362-9fb7d45d9ae5.html Here at WOR HQ, cable and internet resumed sometime during the night/early morning of Saturday May 23 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** ALGERIA [non]. 6125, May 22 at 0529, Qur`an from RTA via FRANCE, no self jamming vs storm noise from Kansas, and no signal on 7295, but: 7295, *0530 May 22 cuts on with open carrier at S9/+10, no beepery here either --- presumed, or could have been a hAM. 9620, May 23 at 0604, Qur`an also JBA tonebeeps, Issoudun-imposed on frequency used this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA.

WORLD OF RADIO 2035 monitoring: confirmed first WRMI broadcast, Friday May 22 at 2200 on 9955, very poor weak signal vs pulse jamming. No better at 2226 check. Also confirmed UT Sat May 23 at 0130 on WRMIs: after ABF in Spanish and BB ID, poor in storm noise on 5010; VP altho with noise reads S9 on 7780; VG as usual on 5850 aimed thisaway, S9+20/30. Also barely confirmed Sat May 23 at 1305 & 1325 chex, on WRMI 15770, sounds like my voice but totally unreadable. Slightly better to Bulgaria as Ivo Ivanov reports: ``Weak signal of World of Radio#2035 via WRMI-9, May 23 1300-1330 on 15770 RMI 100 kW / 044 deg to WeEu English Sat https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2020/05/weak-signal-of-world-of-radio2035-via.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj8XFvzCSi8&feature=youtu.be 73! Ivo Ivanov`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5130 & 6160, May 22 at 2356 just before `AAAWWW` on WBCQ, no signals yet on these frequencies, but 7490 is VG with FKB preacher mis-wrapping up as usual with plug for his later broadcasts on wrong WINB frequency, ``9625`` instead of 9265, Saturday at 9 pm ET; and on WWRB Sun 8 pm on 3215 --- tho last week they had finally made the summer shift to 5050, as yet unconfirmed here: [``WWRB, Morrison, Tennessee, 5050, May 17, 0151, EE with religious program from Challenge Ministries International until 0156, ID at 0157 "This is Radio Station WWRB, Manchester, Tennessee", into filler gospel music selection; 44444 (JRC NRD-535D; antenna 45m longwire with 9:1 Unun) (Robert Butterfield, Columbia, MD, USA``), WOR iog] 7490, UT Sat May 23 at 0000, WBCQ starts `AAAWWW` with WTO and interjexions. Good signal on this one direct. Opens about Planet Earth spinning at 1000 mph and hope we don`t fall off. Huh? Isn`t it flat? Discussing the different mikes he and Angela are using. Last Saturday found a puddle of water in the kitchen when a faucet failed in the 54-year-old house. After purchasing various non-standard parts, he fixed it altho hates plumbing. Angela is beautiful tonight, and X-rated briefly, tease tease. Super-station ``crapped out`` a couple days ago (that must have been when I found 9330 AWOL, May 20 at 2218). More below. Says quadri-casting tonight, also on 6160, 5130, 3265, e-mail reception reports wanted. Belch. Discussing benefits of vegan diet especially with meat prices going up. Avoid ``goo-foods``. Fresh chicken eggs are so much better than store-bought. 0018 interrupted by phone call from someone complaining about calling him. Allan says 78% of Americans are overweight, and 40% of those are obese, a bad situation. Angela starts railing against China for COVID-19; Allan warns not to buy into conspiracy theories. After a quick pirate-band tune at 0024, I check the other WBCQs at 0025: 6159.93V is on fairly with Iran 6160.00 het for another day or two; 5130 is VP in noise, and 3265 as usual inaudible. 0028 Allan says they have just now completed their 14 days of self-quarantine; but he`s been busy, such as installing a new 200-pound modulation transformer in the 780 AM station. 0031 Freddy calls in while on ``pump duty`` and that`s enough for me. Larry Will lasted a bit longer: ``Glenn, to augment what I anticipate are John Carver's notes about tonight's broadcast of "Allan and Angela Weiner Worldwide" on WBCQ, here are my notes: 5/23, 0000 UT. 3265 poor, 5130 fair/good, 6160 very good, 7490 excellent. Disappointing show, started okay, but quickly devolved into ridiculous politics and covid conspiracy theories, stereotypical right wing bashing, and trump ass-licking. Content was so distasteful that we tuned out about 40 minutes in. Lw`` --- and here from John Carver: ``Tonight's AAWWW show started on time on 7490, 6160 and 5130. Allan says they are on 3265 also but I can't pull a signal there. Allan and Angela in the studio. Opening talk about a plumbing emergency at the studio and how he dealt with it. He announced early on that the superstation had crapped out this past week and then got sidetracked as usual talking about how beautiful Angela was. Then he got onto diet and Allan commented that hamburger was selling for seven dollars a pound in upper Maine. Phone call at 0019 from a very angry man who accused Allan of blowing up his phone and wanted him to stop. Then back to health and how the virus was affecting it. Then Angela said out of the blue that we should cut China out of everything and Allan, while agreeing with her to a point, tried to soften what she said. Phone call at 0031 from Freddie and then things turned political with lots of Trump talk. Another phone call at 0046 about regulations affecting churches being relaxed. Finally gets back to the superstation at 0049 but goes off on a bit of a tangent again. Eventually back to the superstation; Allan says their quarantine finally ended and they could visit the superstation. He said that the new antenna went down last Wednesday. Allan and Angela climbed up inside the antenna tower and went from level to level checking things out. Didn't notice anything wrong so had someone in the building fire up the transmitter at low power and they listened and watched. Allan could hear something arcing and they started climbing down checking each level again. Finally Allan could see "lightning" below him and decided the problem was on the first level. They shut down the transmitter and moved down. Had them start again at even lower power and could see and hear the problem. A grounding plug has several "fingers" which make contact and something had caused them to arc and they were now all melted off. Allan had all the people working at the superstation come to the antenna tower and the entire crew along with Allan and Angela worked for better than eight hours to clean the area up and fashion new "fingers" from material that they had at the station. He said it didn't cost them anything but time to repair the problem. He stops the tale there to give us the closing prayer at 0058 and the program was off the air at 0100.
