Again close to but separable from 329 PMV Nebraska (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 334 MCW kHz, Sept 18 at 0645 UT, dash and call starting with Y, too weak, can`t copy, but dxinfocentre.com shows only one is YER, 200 watts at Fort SevERn ON; make that 195 watts per RNA list - that would be a new one for me.

WORLD OF RADIO 2365 monitoring: WRMI skedgrid shows new time of UT Friday 0330 on blue System D 7780. But on September 18 I hear R. Prague International, which is supposed? to be on red System F 5850. So checking 5850, and there I am! the two frequencies reversed. I hope this stix, as will be first SW airing each week and on the best frequency aimed NW right across NAm, rather than to the SW from FL on 7780. Also confirmed Friday September 18 at 1730, new time on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 6160.000+ S9/+15 and 3974.998- S9+15 both into UTwente. Also confirmed Friday September 18 at 2032 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.994, S9 into UTwente. Also confirmed Friday September 18 at 2030 on WRMI webcast only.

Obrecht SW Radio`` in English, German; 2230 Portuguese and German. His music show is monthly? or irregular, showing up on a variety of stations, so I have hope this were an aberration and WOR be back next week at this time. No, he`s already signed up for a week from now per: https://cmobrecht.jimdofree.com/shortwave-radio/ Next broadcasts: Type Date / Time Frequency / mixed music 25.9.2026 UTC 22.00 & 00.00 22.00 UTC: 9955 kHz; 00.00 UTC: 5050 kHz More Info Mod. Target / Zielregion Sender / Leistung / Power AM Southern America WRMI, 100 kW No one at WRMI ever notifies us of any schedule changes, so we are always playing catch-up, and is why I am constantly monitoring to reconfirm WOR airings. WTWW, however, comes on 5085 at *0059 UT Sat Sept 19, somewhat undermodulated, so prospects for Next WOR airing are hopeful: 0300 UT Saturday WTWW 5085 [irregular]; 1530 UT Saturday WRMI web-, phonecast only; 1600 UT Saturday WRN via WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1600 UT Saturday WRN via WRMI 7730 to NE; 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM [1900/2100]; 1930 UT Saturday WRN via WRMI 9395 to NNW; 2231 UT Saturday SW Radio, Germany, 3975 [new time] 0230vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0438]; 0630 UT Sunday WRN via WRMI 5850 to NW [sometimes pre-empted]; 0630 UT Sunday WRN via WRMI 7730 to NE [sometimes pre-empted]; 0630 UT Sunday WRN via WRMI 7780 to SW [sometimes pre-empted]; 0930 UT Sunday IRRS SW 9510 via Romania; 1030 UT Sunday WRN via WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1030 UT Sunday WRN via WRMI 7780 to SW; 1900 UT Sunday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323; 2000 UT Sunday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323; 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 9455 to NW; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 2231 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 2330 UT Monday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 1400 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 1531 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 6160; 2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323; 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1931 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 6160; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1531 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160; 2330 UT Thursday WRMI 5950 to NNW; 0100 UY Friday WRMI 5010 to S.
