Some long pregnant pause at 1658 but still going at 1753; scheduled 1457-1757 via Riyadh, but really chopped off abruptly at 1758* during Qur`an with no announcement; Allah`ll get `em for that? There had been a het before, and now am hearing a tone at same pitch locked onto 13710.314+, what?

Qur`an incident in Sweden, Erdogan uses it to diminish NATO chances; and a few other brief items, over at 2315 already, to song break. 2318 Weekly Commentary: on Turkey`s r?le in western security considerations, by Duke Coffee?, of a DC think-tank, axually about Black Sea region and the Russia/Ukraine war; cooperation in drone produxion between Tuerkiye and Ukraine. Bottom line: Turkey is important! 2325 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2328 song. 2332 VOT: ``always by your side``, a rather meaningless claim, and more music. 2336 a recipe. 2339 violin music. And more music until 2352 sign-off announcement starts --- but chopped off the air after only a few words, uncovering XJPBS on 5960.000+.
