Something else is wrong at RadioCuba. 15140 RHC of course was still missing Jan 11 at 2005 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9440.000, Jan 12 at 2118, S9+20/30 of dead air into UTwente? No, with volume at max, otherwise risking blastout, I can tell that R. Cairo is JBM, suptorted, in English? Not usual 9439.995. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NETHERLANDS. 5954.96 approx., Jan 12 at 0735, JBA M talk, vs storm noise. Nothing listed except, in Aoki & EiBi: 5955 0400-1830 HOL ICON BV.Sunlite Radio Dut Overslag 1-7 5955 0457-1457 HOL Radio VeronicaNL HOL ov IIRC, Sunlite was reported changed to Veronica programming recently. WRTH 2024 page 556 shows Sunlite with 500 watts at 0500-1930, SW site (ICN) Westdorpe. When stations are typically off-frequency, it would be helpful if references show such rather than rounding off. Can anyone confirm this offness, perhaps with even more precision? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, Jan 12 at 2322, soft rock, YL song, S9/+10; 2325 announcement about ``voices in my head``, maybe ID but missed.

Anybeacon audible on this ISM band is of note (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15730, Jan 11 at 2010, VOA French inbooming from Grimesland, much Africanish music sufficient for my pre-WOR nap, rapid announcer interrupted in midshow for mandatory 2030* chopoff, why?

Standout signal, except domestix on 13820, 13845, this is the SSOB, the only others weakies on 13830, 13865. Aoki says VOA Swahili daily via KUWAIT. EiBi same except site STP! HFCC says SAO in Swahili, 100 kW at 114 degrees: that would be toward Tanzania, rather than Kenya & Uganda due east, in any event, far from thisaway unless 294 off the back.
