It seems this is their `normal` closing routine, maybe involuntarily. The repeats at 1800 Saturdays are supposed to start in June. But just in case, I recheck today at 1852: No. BTW, a May 7 article on https://www.facebook.com/Radiosdumonde/ about LRA36 claims, ``C'?tait la premi?re et unique station officielle au monde situ?e en Antarctique``. Presumably written by the FB site`s owner, tho never signed, Michel Fr?my in Belgium. Nor does he attribute his sources, but that info is a BIG LIE, probably propagated by LRA36 and/or R Nacional in Argentina themselves. If it began in 1979 as claimed, another ``official`` Antarctic SW station had been going already for five years, from 1974, American Forces Antarctic Network, which many of us DXed on 6012 kHz --- and even before that on MW. And another contradixion about the FM frequency at Esperanza: 97.6, while WRTH shows 96.7. More likely correct is whichever the Antarcticans axually announce. That item also linx to a 3-minute 2021y audiovideo from Argentina about LRA36; all the garble caused by accents: good luck. https://www.facebook.com/Radiosdumonde/videos/la-radio-%C3%A0-40-sous-z%C3%A9ro-lra-36/722874645696585/ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [and non]. 7290, Sat May 14 at *1800.9, IRRS cut on via Bulgaria as always almost a minute late with `Feature Story News` JIP. Good into UTwente but must tune LSB to avoid RTTY warble. At 1831 during country music also on // 1323 AM Italia into Noale, but not on 918 or 207. Checking, since yesterday when WORLD OF RADIO should have aired Friday at 1815, 7290 was off and 1323 was fill music. BTW, next week, the latest possible third-Friday, May 20, is a scheduled pre?mption of WOR from the 1815 slot only.

Immediately followed by a gospel huxter so this must be Bott, KQCV ``Shawnee`` which vies with KICT Wichita for control of 95.1. PH must have said something with religious over- or under-tones.
