Glenn Hauser logs June 15-16, 2017

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, June 16 starting at 0100:30 as usual, after WRMI ID at hourtop instead of 0059:30, RAE multilingual ID, and opening English, so it`s back after a mixup missing it the past three nights. YL always gives date of current broadcast, but couldn`t copy it in fade. Still RAE after 0130 when I hear some bandoneón. Welcome back! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** CUBA. 15230, June 16 at 0012, RHC music is undermodulated, then Spanish talk with breakup. Weaker signal but better modulation on 15730 with other programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-USB, June 16 at 0008, sitcom, hard to copy vs heavy storm noise approaching at S9; off at 0022 recheck. These logs say it was Unclever Name Radio, and the bit was from Leave It To Beaver before QSY to 6945 (which I did not notice):

** U S A. 11580, Thursday June 15 at 2026, ``Walk On By`` from this WRMI, 2028 ID as `Voice of the Report of the Week` --- contrary to his Newsletter dated May 28 that as of June 1 this broadcast would be dropped due to poor listener response. Perhaps WRMI has not come up with anything yet to replace it (I could think of something). 

However, later that evening, here he is again on four (!) frequencies from two stations, encountered in a bandscan at 0018 UT June 16: 9455 // 9395 WRMI review of his eating a pizza which he found to be ``terrible, disgusting and horrible`` (whew, I had a very good one at Schlotzsky`s today!). Find him again on 7730, but NOT //, or I suppose not synchronized in a separate playout as those three frequencies are not normally duplicative. And AGAIN, on 7490v WBCQ about the pizza but not synchronized with others. He`s on the way to becoming another Brother Scare (hi). This VORW quadruplicate was publicized in his newsletter, plus one more, Sunday 2200 on 7490v, i.e. in between `Marion`s Attic` and `Le Show`; hard to imagine better leads-in & out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105 & 9930 & 9475, June 15 at 2023, all three WTWWs are OFF. 2029 rcheck, now 9475 is back on but only with dead air. Not checked again until 0018 June 16 when it is *still/again* dead air! 12105 still off, and AAMOF, have not heard WTWW-3 at all for several days. Is it off for good? Finally got enough of boring Bible repetition in a few odd languages? But tsk2, no racist white identity disservice on 9475, WTWW`s #1 objective featuring passed Pastor Pete Peters. #2 9930 also prevented Dave Ramsey fans from hearing him, quite irregular. Does he know about that? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1130, June 15 circa 1830 UT check, KLEY Wellington, Kansas, is still off the air: 250 watt daytimer was easy on groundwave here, not at night with (ha, ha) ONE watt.

Wikipedia entry leads to this website:
http://rockingmradio.com/kley-100-31130/

Claims format is A/C, plus sports, plus farm-and-ranch. 100.3, which is really a negligible FM translator, K262CQ, now gets top billing, and the frequencies sort of match. But if the translator is still operational (too far from here to tell under normal conditions), how long can that last without the AM primary being on the air? Is there a loophole? jpg graphic shows kleythewave.com but that website (nor with www.) is imaginary, still for sale by godaddy. KLEY was poorly managed, captured sometimes with long dead air periods, but at least the carrier was on. I should also seek sibling stations on 1550, 92.7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
