Default Weird BBC Propagation in North America

BBC on 5975/11835 has not reached me (in Oakland, CA) at a comfortable
listening level since the Florida hurricanes. (I think they moved
transmitters further SE to Antigua) I was hoping for better winter
reception on 9525 (FL) and 6135 (Delano) but the first two days have
not been encouraging. Any idea whether the transmissions are still
coming from Antigua?

OTOH, 9740 from Singapore has been fantastic here,very strong signal
1400-1600 UT many mornings.

No change in 5975 or 11835 reception at 52-16N 102W. Never hear 6135 or
9740. If the Florida one is the rebroadcast by the religious station, I
can hear it but don't generally tune in.

6135 is good here (Seattle), but only after 04:00 UTC.
9525 is disappointing. 5975 is usually the best.
12095 is sometimes there, too.

Also try 15280, 15310 and 15360 in the afternoon and evening.
These are on the Asian schedule(s), like 9740. It may be just the
recent good propagation, but they've been coming in with listen-able
strength.
