BRAZIL 4885 kHz March 10 at 2348 UT, no signal from R. Clube do Para
into three remotes, Pardinho, Brasilia, Goiania, nor a couple hours later.
Checking because of this item in NASWA Flashsheet:
"4885 kHz BRAZIL Radio Clube do Para, Belem, March 6; weak but in the
clear here at 1010 UT well before the Korean fades in to take over the fqy
a little later on. OM with extended talks in PP. Nice to hear again.
Checked their website stream just to make sure and indeed //
(Ralphus W Perry - IL-USA)
{Hasn't been heard in some time. - Ed. Mark Taylor}"
Still nothing direct at 0638 UT March 11 on 4885 kHz. But happened to
awaken March 11 at 1011 UT and found a signal on 4885 kHz, S=9+5dB, mostly
talk with some music bits, too weak to be certain of language but seemed
more like Portuguese than Korean.
Para used to be all-night and should be on prime-time if serious. I've
brought this to attn of Rudolf Grimm {SP-Brazil}, who recently ran a list
of active ZYs, not including this one. His reply:
"Hi Glenn, I'll take a look. I checked on the Radio Clube do Para website
and found that the only frequency currently in use is FM (106.9 MHz).
I remember reading a while ago about the deactivation of RCP for both me-
dium waves (690 kHz) and the tropical band (4885 kHz).
It was made official. But the website doesn't mention use of MW and tro-
pical bands. There is no current positive reference on the Tudo Radio web-
site, nor on radios.com.br. It only mentions FM transmission.
Based on your information, the recent listening time of RCP in tropical
waves coincides with the usual time of football matches in Brazil.
{?? No, that was around 7 am local gh}
However, there is one fact to consider in this aspect that you report: for
some time now, we have had the occasional resurgence of Radio Cultura de
Araraquara, 3365 kHz (remember this station?), even after the deactivation
of this frequency,on the days/nights of the broadcast of soccer matches of
Ferroviaria FC, the city's main sports team, only during the game times.
At the end of the match, the 90 m transmitter was put back to sleep until
the next match of this team.
Today, March 11, the main team of Belem, Remo FC, plays tonight against
the team Criciuma FC, in a match for the 2025 Brazilian Championship -
Series C.
It is possible that the frequency of 4885kHz will be used extraordinarily.
There is no reliable information. It is worth observing from 2040 UTC to
0200 UTC today, according to the portal:
<https://radioclube.dol.com.br/>
73, Rudolf" 4885, March 11 at 2242 UT, nothing on 4885 kHz into Brasilia
SDR.

CHINA Present BIG NATIONAL FOLK CONGRESS BEIJING transmission ? ed.
CNR / CRI special transmissions on shortwave during anual March
'National Peoples Congress'
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_People%27s_Congress> ed.
I am hearing China radio inter on 9790 kHz at 0341 UT English sounds like
from Cuba. Audio horrible. En/Cantonese scheduled.

UNID Chinese on 15210 kHz at 0400 UT on March 7. I need some help id-ing
a station I logged between 0330 and 0415 UT last nite (7 Mar).
Here's the clip from 0400 UT
<http://popshopradio.ca/20250307_0400_UT_15210_khz_China_Unid.mp4>
While translation software couldn't pull a ToH id out of it, the feature
at ToH mentioned Sohu News China and a report on two government sessions
dealing with consumer spending and consumer confidence. Sohu is a major
Chinese internet and media outlet. Any ideas?
The audio rely from CCTV 4 (international Chinese channel) by CRI
Chinese. They sometimes do that. They don't mention CCTV4 in the program,
but we chinese BCLs know. Best wishes Wang Zidong brdxc groups.io March 7.
Re: UNID Chinese on 15210 kHz at 0400 UT March 7. Thank you! I wonder if
this was a one time occurrence ?
Caught another similar one this evening
<http://www.popshopradio.ca/20250308_0200_UT_13835_khz_China_Unid.mp4>
This time on 13835 kHz at 0200UT on March 8. Similar format to the one the
previous night on 15210 kHz.
(Tony Pavick-BC-CAN, brdxc.uk groups.io March 7 - 8)
Re: UNID Chinese on 15210 kHz at 0400 UT.
This is supposed to be the special live broadcast of 14-3 CPPCC (Chinese
People's Political Consultative Conference), which was held in Beijing on
March 5 - 10, 2025. Several CRI frequencies were reported to be used at
0030-0330 UT. Probably for Chinese in overseas.
(Takahito Akabayashi-Tokyo-JP, direct via wwdxc BC-DX TopNews March 15)
CUBA 6000 [and non] Febr 17 at 0315 UT, RHC English S=9+40/50dB but
extremely suptorted; something's always wrong at RHC. Occasional beepy
QRM. Others had been complaining earlier about that.
6001 kHz Febr 18 at 0213 UT, there it is again, intermittent OOK on this
frequency into Maryland SDR, whilst Cuba is off, but Turkey is weakly on.
Stronger into UTwente on 6000.998 kHz. We hear beeping only if allowed to
beat against 6000 kHz. Maybe from 4XZ, which has shown up before inside
the 49m SWBCband. EiBi database list has it only on four other frequencies
in ute bands. [At 0515UT, nothing on 6000 kHz but at UTWente 6000 USB tun-
ing still audiblizes the beepery only].
(Glenn Hauser-OK-USA, via NASWA Electronic Flashsheet #1192 Feb 23)
6030 kHz CUBA. Pulse jammer heard briefly along with possible UNID at
1226 UT while USAGM R Marti-USA off. RM back at 1227 UT. Fair.
(David Potter-Gainesville-FL-USA, via
NASWA Electronic Flashsheet #1192 Feb 23)
CUBA 9790 kHz CRI LatinAM relay txion via Quivican San Felipe Titan
site, 0359 UT on, 13 Febr. English and YUE Cantonese Chinese. Conclusion
of show "The Bridge" into ToH fanfare and start of Chinese service. Poorly
modulated but strong signal.
(Tony Pavick-BC-CAN, via NASWA Electronic Flashsheet #1192 Febr 23)
CUBA 15230even kHz in NoAM / CAN-USA only a poor S=4 signal string seen
on screen at 15.30 UT on Fri March 7, but NOTHING seen / heard in Spanish
South AM target BRA/ARG etc., nor on Perseus SDR installation worldwide on
this time slot. 14-16 UT requested on various amateurish KIWI SDR units.
(wb df5sx March 7)
15230 kHz Febr 18 at 1506UT, RHC music S9 but JBM. Is anyone ever hearing
any active RHC frequency besides this and 6000 kHz ? Spanish evenings on
9710 kHz is not RHC as someone guessed, { but CRI East Turkistan - Kashi
Kashgar Xinjiang relay, or SZG later the day at 11.00 - 23.30 UT wb ed.}.
9710 kHz still shows on RHC website of grossly outdated info
- 15230 kHz on Febr 21 at 1548UT, RHC S8/S9 but JBM music. Something's al-
ways wrong at RHC. It's mystifying why this and some other stations keep
turning on a transmitter, yet unable to modulate; is this a matter of en-
gineers "just following orders" while management is clueless about the re-
sult, not even turning on a receiver ?

DX Guides
Just following up on what Dave mentioned earlier, the Africa on Mediumwave
guide has been updated with a revised VOA Djibouti schedule (and will be
updated again later based on further information received).
There are also other MW and SW guides for Winter B24 available on the BDXC
website at
<https://www.bdxc.org.uk/articles.html>
but with only a few weeks left of this season, attention now turns to
Summer A25 (commencing on 30 March 2025).
With that being the case, please can I remind BDXC members that anyone can
participate in the upkeep of the guides, the more people involved the bet-
ter. If you have any information concerning latest schedules or you see
something in the guides that doesn't look right then I would be delighted
to hear from you. Whilst there may be errors and omissions, the strong
point of the guides is the ability to correct and upload new versions
quickly. Dave and myself work as a team in that respect and it works well.
Please feel free to email me at dxguides@gmail.com with any comments or
suggestions.
And remember, these guides are free,no payment is required to access them.
They are simply compiled as a hobby.
I look forward to hearing from you if you can help. Thanks! 73's Tony

ETHIOPIA A mediumwave station on 630 kHz heard on the KiwiSDR in Addis
Ababa may be associated with the Oromia Education Bureau and broadcasts
pre-recorded lessons for students in Oromo and Amharic (I have not noticed
what might be considered as live programmes).
A lot of typical Horn of Africa type music is played, as well as a repeti-
tive xylophone-style tune between some lessons. I have translated snippets
and come up with various introductions, such as
"This is a 7th grade Amharic language course prepared by the Oromia Educa-
tion Bureau",
"This is a 5th grade environmental science lesson","This is a 7th grade
lesson in the field of physical education",
"This program is designed for those who are learning Amharic as a second
language" etc, but no clear indication as to the actual station name.
As would be expected for student lessons, it is heard during what would be
the daytime in Ethiopia.Judging from the strength of reception, the trans-
mitter appears to be located in Addis Ababa.

Re: Ethiopia (MW 630 kHz) educational programming.
<https://zliangaslogs.wordpress.com/2025/02/11/ksdr-addis-ababa-11-2-25/>
THERE IS SOME INFO ON THE STATION IN 630 kHz WITH SOME TRANSCRIPTION HELP
I've been following the station on 630 kHz since Friday (7 March), of
course using the Addis Ababa webSDR. At 0500 UT on that day they played
their interval signal and identified in Oromo, a strong and clear ID but
only 'clear' if one understands the lingo - the only word I recognized was
'barnootaa' [education].
Recording here:
<https://www.intervalsignals.net/sounds/unid-eth_oromo_630kHz_070325.mp3>
7 seconds into the recording under the main audio you can hear the speak-
ing clock with a time check in English, which happens at the top of every
hour. The IS & ID is followed by a 15-second burst of HoA music then what
appears to be a station jingle.
The signal was loud and clear, equally as strong as the RadioEthiopia out-
let on 873 kHz. On Friday I monitored the station on and off between 0445-
1400 UT then found it was off air when I checked again around 1900 UT.
Yesterday it was either off air completely or I tuned in too late (0900UT)
- today I found it on air at 0745 UT however it was off air when I tuned
back at 0830 UT.
(David Kernick-UK, Interval Signals Online, wor March 7)
Thanks very much to Tony for his informative observations. Have conducted
an online search to learn more about 630 kHz and the broadcasting of this
educational programming. Have been successful in finding a very detailed
explanation.
"Basic design study report on the project for consolidation of educational
television and radio recording studios in the Federal Democratic Republic
of Ethiopia (January 2002)"
Chapter One - <https://openjicareport.jica.go.jp/pdf/11678646_01.pdf>
Chapter Two - <https://openjicareport.jica.go.jp/pdf/11678646_02.pdf>
A few basic facts:
This was a joint project,with Japan supplying the radio program production
equipment and Ethiopia doing the preparation of radio studio building for
8 sites (EMA, Gambella, Harar, Addis Ababa, Mizan Teferi, Semera, Alemaya
and Dire Dawa).
Please see Chapter Two, page 12; table showing "Status of transmitting
stations" (12 sites listed):
site #2: Gondar (Amhara region) MW 630 kHz. 1 kW operating MW 972 kHz.
10kW operating [believe this has been established as being Radio Ethiopia

ETHIOPIA Ethiopia on medium waves. Observations of the last 4 months via
SDR in Addis Ababa remotedly, based on information from DX-sites
<www.bdxc.org.uk> and <www.mwlist.org>
- Radio Ethiopia National Service. All transmitters 684, 828, 855, 873,
891, 972, 1044 kHz are listened to, except 1485kHz (10 kW) possibly due to
low power and distance from SDR.
- Fana National Radio.
Both transmitters -1080 and//6110 kHz are listened to. On HF there are
sometimes problems with modulation and the transmitter switches off.
- Amhara Radio.
The 801 kHz (100 kW) transmitter is never heard, apparently not active. On
6090 kHz there are sometimes problems with modulation and the transmitter
switches off. The correct link to the stream is
<https://link.zeno.fm/uyca0sqa2d0uv>
from the site <https://www.ameco.et/
The <mwlist.org> site gives an erroneous link to Farm International Radio
in Amharic (as it announces itself).
- Oromia Radio. 837 and 1035 kHz are heard, 1053 kHz (50/100 kW) is never
heard, obviously not active. On 6030 kHz there are sometimes problems with
modulation and the transmitter switches off.
- DW-Dimtsi Weyane Radio, Tigray. It is heard on 1359 kHz with a good sig-
nal, but sometimes it is not on the air.
- Tigrai Radio. (not available on the DX resources listed above). Listened
to regularly on 918 kHz (100 kW). Website <https://tigraitv.com/radio/>
Note: Since 2024, Tigrai regional state broadcasts on the Menasat platform
of the Russian Express AM6 satellite
(these are DW TV channels - Dimtsi Weyane TV, Tigrai TV, TBS and Tigrai
Radio). Coverage area - East Africa, Middle East, Europe, partially -
Russia. However, on websites, YouTube pages and on TV channel tickers, the
parameters of the previous satellite Al Yah 1 are still indicated. Ear-
lier, before the war with Tigray, the central authorities of Ethiopia on
July 6, 2020, turned off all its broadcasting on the Ethiosat platform of
the NSS12 satellite, and on Sept 13, 2022, the DW TV satellite antenna was
blown up by a government drone.
<https://tigraitv.com/en/dimtsi-weyane-stopped-televising-after-drone-

- Gimbi Educational Radio. Was heard on 1215 kHz regularly until the end
of December,then was absent and appeared in February with a retransmission
of UNID broadcasts - an unidentified educational station broadcasting in
Ethiopia in the Oromo language in // on different frequencies. Currently,
the station is on the air irregularly, starting transmissions at 5.00 UTC.
- UNID - Unidentified educational station in the Oromo language. Listened
to mainly on two frequencies (except Gimbi Radio) - 630kHz (transmitter in
Addis Ababa) from 5.00 to 13.45 UT and 1260 (transmitter remote from SDR)
from 3.00 or 4.00 to 15.00 UT. Broadcast time may vary, broadcasting is
irregular. Once in February this broadcast was well heard at 13.15 UT on
the frequency 927 kHz, which, like 1260 kHz, is absent from the specified
DX resources.
- Sidama Radio. It is heard regularly on 954 kHz (2.5 kW).

KOREA REP OF {South} KBS World Radio in A-25 season. Russian "Mail of

From March 30, we will switch to the summer broadcast schedule, and our
hour-long program will be broadcast daily from 12 to 13 hours on 1170 kHz,
from 13 to 14 hours on 9645 kHz and from 18 to 19 hours on 15265 kHz.
Greenwich Mean Time. You can also receive our programs from our home page
and in the mobile application on channel Ch 1 from 18 to 19 and from 5 to
6 hours, on channel Ch 2 - around the clock, as well as via satellite and
on the World Radio Network website at: <http://www.wrn.ru>
All times are Greenwich Mean Time.
We kindly ask our listeners, and monitors first of all, to receive our
broadcasts more often in the first days after the transition to the summer
broadcasting schedule and promptly inform us about the quality of recep-
tion. Some changes will be made to our weekly program from March 31.
On Mondays, at the end of the Seoul Today program, instead of a repeat of
the "Speaking Like TV Series Heroes" section, a new Korean language lesson
will be aired - "Korean Language for Dessert".This section will be repeat-
ed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Then a new program awaits you. It is called
"Documentary Audio Series "Republic of Korea: 80 Years of Independence".
On Tuesdays, instead of the Seoul Today program, a new program "K-Sport
Today" will be aired with the same "Living and Studying in Korea" section,
but in an updated format - in the form of interviews with Korean students.
And finally, our "Mailbox" program will not feature the "Browsing through
Koreana" section for the simple reason that the magazine is not published
this year. It's a pity, of course, but we will have extra time to answer
your questions, as well as the opportunity to fulfill music requests.
We are waiting for your requests. There will be no changes on other days.

Lithuania's 1386 kHz is still on the air, relaying Radio Liberty's stream.
Ukraine's 1278 kHz is on the air as should be. They have just a weekly

MALDIVES Voice of the Maldives.
45 years ago, Radio Maldives became The Voice of The Maldives. The first
radio station in the Maldives had started under the name Male Radio on
29 December 1962. The radio service was quickly taken over by Seneco Radio
which used short-wave transmitters. Radio Maldives officially started on
11 September 1966 as a government organisation and on 19 February 1980
Radio Maldives became "The Voice of The Maldives".
The peculiarity of this radio is that it has studios on the island of
Male, while its transmitter is located on the island of Thilafushi (photo)
Thilafushi is not an island but an atoll whose lagoon became a landfill.
Although the transmitter is not powerful, the station has been heard as
far away as Europe, Africa and Asia. The current installation consists of
a Nautel transmitter of 25 kW on 1449 kHz, coupled to a directional anten-
na consisting of two 53.3 metre tall guyed masts.

MEXICO 6185- kHz March 12 at 0631 UT, XEPPM is OFF ! Still off at 0917
UT. Mexico's last SW station, R. Educacion, hope not gone for good. Had
been reliable late at night, and hardly anything else above 6115kHz; 6160-
WBCQ has been drastically curtailed with the departure of TOMBS. WRTH 2025
shows no callsign for 6185 kHz, but Senal Cultura Mexico, 1.4 kW at
22-12 UT.
EiBi database list agrees on the hours, but Aoki list shows 21-10UT. There
are no longer any DST shifts in most of Mexico. At 2232 UT I try the Kiwi-
SDRs in MexCy XE1AF, and Qro: nothing on 6185 kHz.
At the bottom of this page there is a 6185kHz program schedule dated March
2025, a lot of blanx, but only between 17 and 24 local time 23-06UT. After
06 SW must have been relaying one of their other stations:

So anything to hear after 2300 UT March 12? At 2301, 2307, 2325 UT, still
nothing on 6185 kHz to either XE remote. At 2344 UT, nothing to Qro tho a

OMAN/PHILIPPINES/USA Might keep an ear on some of the scheduled trans-
missions from other broadcasters that use the USAGM transmitters. For in-
stance BBCWS uses USAGM Tinang relay installations for its morning and
evening beams to Southeast Asia, as well as for broadcasts to Myanmar and
North Korea. Are these still on the air? Moved elsewhere? Or gone?
BBCWS was still going via USAGM Tinang relay between 2200 and 0000 UT on
March 16 for its Monday morning beam to SoEaASIA. Did not get to check the
later 1000-1200 UT transmission.
The BBCWS broadcasts to SoEaASIA could probably be moved to A'Dheela Oman
relay site, or perhaps to MGLOB Madagascar. A new site for the programs to
Korea is anyone's guess. Still awaiting the release of the A-25 schedule,
might it already show some moves?

RUSSIA/USSR Sowjet radio history The Fifth Program of the All-Union Radio
In the 60s-80s of the last century, the Fifth Program existed on the All-
Union Radio. The Fifth Program of the All-Union Radio is a 24-hour infor-
mational,socio-political and artistic program addressed to Soviet citizens
outside the country (sailors, fishermen, polar explorers, etc.), broadcast
on short and medium waves.
Broadcast from August 1, 1960, in 1989 it was transferred to the Central
Radio Broadcasting to foreign countries. It included several autonomous
editorial boards that prepared issues for the corresponding groups of
listeners:
- Radio "For Those at Sea" from Moscow for fishing and scientific expedi-
tions, from Odessa for sailors and fishermen of the Black Sea-Mediterra-
nean basin,
- Radio "Atlantic" from Murmansk for sailors and fishermen of the Northern
basin, from Riga for the Western basin of the Atlantic.
- Radio "Pacific Ocean" from Vladivostok for sailors and fishermen of the
Pacific and Indian basins,
- Radio "For Soviet specialists working abroad"from Moscow (several issues
at different times for countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America).
- Radio for polar explorers;
- Radio station "Rodina", for those who live abroad and have nostalgia for
Russia in their souls.

SAUDI ARABIA 11934.893+ kHz, March 11 at 2037 UT, Rep. of Yemen Radio,
Arabic, still with heavy buzz. Ed Sylvester explains on the WOR iog:
"I live in Riyadh and have had meetings with SBA. At that time (early
2024), they were on the fence as to whether to continue.
The transmitters / antennas are currently in a sector of Riyadh that has
been designated for future housing projects. Hence, the government will
either fund a move or have them shut down permanently.
Because there has not been funding to date, they are cannibalizing older
transmitters for replacement parts to at least keep Yemen radio on the air
Saudi Arabia is in the midst of full bore modernization in all sectors and
DAB+ has been touted as the new medium for widespread broadcasting. They
also rely on high-powered MW broadcasters that can be heard throughout the
region.
The future of SW b'casting seems bleak in KSA as surveys of listenership
have been spotty and unconvincing. Will know more in the coming months.
Fingers crossed. 73, Ed 7Z1ES"

Re: Republic of Yemen Radio - 11935 kHz.
Curious, because WRTH says the power in Saudi Arabia and Yemen is 50 Hz.
So we should expect the faulty transmitter to show "fence pickets" every
100 Hertz, not every 120 Hertz.
Makes me wonder if these transmissions might be coming from a U.S. mili-
tary base in Saudi Arabia.

TURKEY 448 new radio frequencies have been added in Istanbul. Transport
and Infrastructure Minister Abdulkadir Uraloglu announced that Turkey has
made the transition to Digital Audio Broadcasting(DAB+) technology for the
first time. Minister Uraloglu said that DAB+ is a technology that provides
clear, interference-free sound and increases frequency efficiency by
allowing more than one radio channel to be placed on a single frequency.
Stating that there are currently no free frequencies in Istanbul, Uraloglu
said: "We have eliminated this situation by starting DAB+ broadcasts. With
this new technology,we will be able to provide 448 new frequencies accord-
ing to the needs," he said.

USA Drumbbb und VOA 2025 Freez. Trump freezes US-funded media outlets
including Voice of America.
President Donald Trump's administration on Saturday put journalists at
Voice ofAmerica and other US-funded broadcasters on leave, abruptly freez-
ing decades-old outlets long seen as critical to countering Russian and
Chinese information offensives.
Hundreds of staffers at VOA, Radio Free Asia, Radio Free Europe and other
outlets received a weekend email saying they will be barred from their of-
fices and should surrender press passes and office-issued equipment.
Trump, who has already eviscerated the US global aid agency and the Educa-
tion Department, on Friday issued an executive order listing the US Agency
for Global Media as among "elements of the federal bureaucracy that the
president has determined are unnecessary."
Kari Lake, a firebrand Trump supporter put in charge of the media agency
after she lost a US Senate bid, said in an email to the outlets that fede-
ral grant money "no longer effectuates agency priorities."
The White House said the cuts would ensure "taxpayers are no longer on the
hook for radical propaganda," marking a dramatic tone shift towards the
networks established to extend US influence overseas.
White House press official Harrison Fields wrote "goodbye" on X in
20 languages, a jab at the outlets' multilingual coverage.
VOA director Michael Abramowitz said he was among 1,300 staffers placed on
leave Saturday.
"VOA needs thoughtful reform, and we have made progress in that regard.But
today's action will leave Voice of America unable to carry out its vital
mission," he said on Facebook,noting that its coverage — in 48 languages —
reaches 360 million people each week.
The head of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, which started broadcasting
into the Soviet bloc during the Cold War, called the cancellation of fund-
ing "a massive gift to America's enemies."
"The Iranian ayatollahs, Chinese communist leaders,and autocrats in Moscow
and Minsk would celebrate the demise of RFE/RL after 75 years," its presi-
dent, Stephen Capus, said in a statement.
US-funded media have reoriented themselves since the end of the Cold War,
dropping much of the programming geared toward newly democratic Central
and Eastern European countries and focusing on Russia and China.
Chinese state-funded media have expanded their reach sharply over the past
decade, including by offering free services to outlets in the developing
world that would otherwise pay for Western news agencies.
Radio Free Asia, established in 1996, sees its mission as providing uncen-
sored reporting into countries without free media including China,Myanmar,
North Korea and Vietnam.
The outlets have an editorial firewall, with a stated guarantee of inde-
pendence despite government funding.
The policy has angered some around Trump,who has long railed against media
and suggested that government-funded outlets should promote his policies.
The move to end US-funded media is likely to meet challenges, much like
Trump's other sweeping cuts. Congress, not the president, has the consti-
tutional power of the purse and Radio Free Asia in particular has enjoyed
bipartisan support in the past.
Advocacy group Reporters Without Borders condemned the decision, saying it
"threatens press freedom worldwide and negates 80years of American history
in supporting the free flow of information."
Gregory Meeks, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee,and
senior Democratic congresswoman Lois Frankel said in a joint statement
that Trump's move would "cause lasting damage to US efforts to counter
propaganda around the world."
One VOA employee, who requested anonymity, described Saturday's message
as another "perfect example of the chaos and unprepared nature of the pro-
cess," with VOA staffers presuming that scheduled programming is off but
not told so directly.
A Radio Free Asia employee said: "It's not just about losing your income.
We have staff and contractors who fear for their safety. We have reporters
who work under the radar in authoritarian countries in Asia. We have staff
in the US who fear deportation if their work visa is no longer valid."
"Wiping us out with the strike of a pen is just terrible."

at-voice-of-america-and-usagm-networks/>
Journalists at Voice o.America and the Office for Cuba Broadcasting arriv-
ed for work today only to find themselves locked out, following an order
from President Trump's administration. Over 1,000 employees were placed on
indefinite paid leave, and contracts with international broadcasters like
R. Free Europe / R. Liberty and R. Free Asia were abruptly terminated.
According to NPR, the cuts, pushed by Trump's senior adviser Kari Lake,are
raising serious legal and ethical questions — with former USAGM officials
calling it "Bloody Saturday" for global media.
These networks,which reach 420million people across 63 languages, are cru-
cial for delivering uncensored news to regions where press freedom is sup-
pressed. The full article at NPR dives deeper into the shutdowns, politi-
cal motivations, and what this could mean for global journalism and Ameri-
can soft diplomacy {...}

USA [and non] VOA situation: Not all the staff at USAGM Greenville
[Grimesland]-NC-USA are full-time employees; seven technicians are perso-
nal service contractors (PSC) and are to be put on administrative leave
until further notice, but not locked out, unlike some personnel in
Washington-DC.
Five Government Service Employees remaining are: three supervisors, the
chief engineer and a secretary. One person already accepted a buy-out. A
former manager has returned. It's unclear if there will be enough staff to
keep running the site 24/7 hrs/d.
Perhaps they will at least keep Radio Marti broadcasting as long as the
program feed remains. It seems there has been a lot of repetition already
in music and talk features to fill the 24-hour schedule.
Already planned: GB-8, a 500 kW AEG transmitter is to be retired, as no
high voltage transformer can be obtained for it. One of the Kuwait sen-
ders, a Continental 417 will be moved in to replace it.
Now in doubt is a major expansion of the Kuwait site, three x 250 kW
Ampegons, to replace Sao Tome, and others. Other relay sites? So far it
appears that USAGM Tinang, Philippines relay site is still operating.
(Glenn Hauser-OK-USA, wor 0451 UT March 16)
USA [and non] Monitoring by gh: 13820 kHz, March 16 at 1457 UT, open
carrier S6/S7, 1500 UT JIP Radio Marti with ID. 11860 kHz was not on at
1457 UT but is on after 1500 UT. 11930 kHz already running at 1457 UT,
S7/9+5dB, all Grimesland NC site. Presumably about to be abolished.
Greenville manager Willford Cooper could not find anything out at 1604 UT
March 16. The computer network was down and Greenville getting its Marti
programs from satellite. Staff could not put in their time cards, get the
daily activity report of operational memos from DC. So if they had been
told to shut down they would never know.
But by 1654UT The order has been passed to Macon Dail, the Chief Engineer,
to shut Greenville site down. All employees have been told not to show up
for work.
Alan Furst, Kansas City, reports: "Radio Marti went off at 16:30 today
March 16. All transmitters appear to be off in 22 and 25 meters. It hap-
pened abruptly, although I wasn't listening closely to know what they said
at the end. Was a surprise."
Many USAGM services are missing frequencies, dead air, filling with music
or repeating old programming as the axe is falling; much monitoring of de-
tails in the WOR indian ocean group. The White House has quoted Dan Robin-
son's critique of VOA as one justification. And Kim Elliott says,
"The zombification of VOA has begun. Listening at 0400 UTC 15 March on
4930kHz, Botswana relay via an SDR in South Africa: It was the VOA "World-
wide in Five" newscast from March 9 at 0200 UTC." - he probably meant 0400
UT 16 March as this was posted a few minutes after that.
VOA's broadcasting of week-olds eclipses Voice of Turkey, where their olds
would be no more than 14.5 hours stale.
At 1900 UT on March 16, via UTwente checking all VOA scheduled frequencies
per EiBi database list:
Tigrigna: 9485 BOT & 12040 CVA dead air; 13765 KWT music.
English: 13590 D-Lampertheim Germany music.
French: 17700 GB Woofferton OFF.
Korean: 7465 & 9800 PHT, 9575 THA all with music
(Glenn Hauser-OK-USA, wor March 16)
USA [and non] 4930 kHz on March 17 at 0444UT, JBA carrier, no doubt VOA
BOTSWANA relay still on air, but others report no new programming, and
site expected to be closed down later this date.
9775 kHz March 17 at 0455 UT, S7/S9 of music with long pause between
tunes, presumably fill music, off by 0459UT: VOA English BOTSWANA schedul-
ed 0300-0500 UT, still running while HQ in Washington is locked up.
Various other relay sites are affected, MW and SW, disappearing from air,
replacing with other programming, etc., everyone trying to keep up with
this fast-breaking situation, reporting to the WOR iog. Of course this al-
so threatens innocent bystations using USAGM facilities such as Radio
Thailand, Pilipinas.
Greenville guys were told to shut the power off to the building.That means
no A/C and no heat. In NC the equipment will be ruined in a month. It's
over for shortwave.

USA 9275 kHz March 3 at 2302 UT, WMLK is S=9+30dB, surprisingly playing
"God Save The Queen" - I mean, "King". Couldn't make out the lyrix, "from
every mountainside"? I heard them in morning on 15150kHz but not lately in
afternoon on 17525 kHz - is that one active?
Re my WMLK 9275 log, Mike Barraclough-UK, replies: "WMLK would have been
playing My Country Tis of Thee, the United States first national anthem,
think it was adopted unofficially, before Star Stangled Banner,see lyrics,
including from every mountainside, here. Was written to more or less the
same tune as God Save the Queen.
<https://mistressofmusic.wordpress.com/2014/02/11/my-country-tis-of-
thee-vs-god-save-the-queen-did-we-rip-off-the-uk/>
As a long time Neil Young fan I bought his 2012 Americana album, covers of
well known folk songs. His version of God Save the Queen has a rarely sung
verse; there have been many versions during the years and ends with the 16
strong Americana choir singing the verse from My Country Tis of Thee with
From Every Mountainside in it. Video here with appropriate footage for
both. I didn't know of My Country Tis of Thee before I bought the album.
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-nPsrX05Rk>
In his notes on the album Neil says how he remembers singing God Save the
Queen regularly at school in Canada. Mike"
Axually I knew about the US/UK duplitune,but was hoping to prompt an inte-
resting reply such as this; tnx, Mike!
