Regarding your statement that BBC does not broadcast on shortwave to NA,
I have been listening to them almost every night clear as a bell on
5975, so the next time, i will see if they say world service or specify
another location. sure sounds like it is aimed here.

Go to http://www.bbcworldservice.com and there's a huge chunk of their
web site dedicated to getting you their current schedule.

One mode of operation is to enter in your city, and they'll give you
a menu of the various outlets along with schedules for those outlets.
For cities in the USA, Shortwave comes at the bottom of the list (if
at all) after XM and Sirius Satellite and a list of local (usually NPR)
stations that rebroadcast it. Sometimes there's a note that they don't
target your area on shortwave but it can be received.

You can also get their transmitter schedules for the various target regions.
There's isn't on for North America, but there is one for the Caribbean.
(Which is what you're getting on 5975 and 11835, first from WYFR in Florida
and then (I think dxace said) the VOA site in Delano California.

Apparent sked:

11835 is via Okeechobee (WYFR) from 0000-0300
11835 is via Delano (VOA) from 0300-0500

9825
is also a BBC evening frequency, targeted at South America).

The morning frequencies, (9740, 7160, 6195) are usually (depending on
the space weather) from Singapore aimed at the Philipines and Japan,
which we get on the second or third bounce.
