** U S A. WWL is on 5835, 250 kW from South Carolina. Heard with good sig here
in Gilbert, AZ (Kevin Redding, AZ, 0306 UT Sept 5, WTFDA via DXLD)

That would be WHRI; checked at 0335 and it is not // 870, but I think it was
running about a minute behind, as I heard a URBONO ID go by. 5835 is
scheduled 0300-0500, then switching to 7315. [Later:] 5835 still going at 0545,
contrary to the posted WHRI schedule, so what else is
new? Timed the delay behind 870 and it is about 70 seconds. Internet feed? 73,

(via Andy Sennitt, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST) gh added UT, kHz

I just heard URBONO switching from 11785 to 15285 at 1400 (without any
announcement so listeners would know!). This is Monday, not Tuesday.
On weekdays 15285 is normally in use instead of 11785, a weekend-only frequency
at 1200-1400. Fortunately today, the usual Chicom jamming on 15285 is not a
factor.

For the first time in its history, LeSea is performing a public service. The
fact that they are able to blow away most or all of their usual programming for
this on at least one transmitter speaks volumes for the value of their usual
programming.

BTW, they are running what are called ``commercials`` now, but they all seem to
be related to the emergency situation, such as insurance companies, etc.

This also puts CBS Radio news on the hour on SW, and WHR must have been pulling
their hair out when the reviled Pres. Clinton was on for a few minutes around
1415.

But who knows about it in the general public? I have heard NO mentions of the
SW relay on the URBONO feed.

WHRI IDs are stuck in abruptly every half hour, interrupting programming.
Fortunately, they have saved us from having to listen to the entire Onward
Christian Soldiers each time, but they are still longer than necessary.

This transmitter is now developing a squeal, but it is slight so far.
73, (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

15285 just went off at 1500 UT after being on only one hour, contrary to its
all-day schedule on the WWL site! Then I checked the WHR site which of course
has not been updated to include this new service, but it does show this for
Angel 1 at 1500 UT weekdays:

1500 Mo-Fr 1100 AM 0200 PM Monday - Friday Off the air until 1800 UTC today - -
15.285 Mhz

So they are following their usual 3-hour break anyway! It looks like most of
the programming replaced is LeSea music and preaching, so that can be done at
no financial loss. Presumably the gaps in the posted URBONO relay schedule are
times when they do have paid programming to keep running.

Now I wonder if this is being done as a sheer public service, or is URBONO
buying the time, even if their anchor doesn`t know about it?

At 1456 a caller from Houston asked if he could hear WWL on SW, but the host
did not know the answer, referred him to online streaming! (Glenn Hauser, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

WWL on shortwave – WHY? Regarding the new WWL relay from "WHRI" --- The real
question is "why?" Anyone who has access to a working radio in SE Louisiana,
coastal Mississippi and Mobile can hear WWL crystal clear on 870, not to
mention the plethora of Clear Channel, Entercom, etc. stations on AM and FM now
simulcasting. I can hear them (WWL) here in Clearwater, daytime. And they are
now streaming beautifully on the Internet, for anyone who might actually have
access in the affected area, and for all of us outside the zone. Who needs (or
would tune, or have the ability to tune) to SW? How foolish to waste kW $$$ on
such, vs. WHRI (WHSB?)'s LeSEA parent donating the wattage-per-hour cost to
where it's needed most (Terry L. Krueger, FL, Sept 5, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This is good information Ace thanks for posting it. I'm not able to
hear WWL due to a local broadcaster on the same frequency and on a
similar heading so even if a had a small loop to null out the local I
still might not be able to hear them. 15,285 MHz is a really excellent
signal today and I'm also listening to KGO on 600 KHz where they are
interviewing the disaster victims.

I'm not interested in the Internet streaming audio but I have been
reading plenty about this disaster on the Internet.

KGO 810 comes in well here evenings. Usually very strong and you can
pick it up on any radio. I'll try them later.

780's killer at night. KDWN and KXNT from Las Vegas. KCBS. KNBR.
1090. I seem to be in everyones null Los Angeles. I get San
Diego an Tijuana really good on FM.

780? You mean KKOH out of Reno? They like to call themselves KOH.

Yes they come in well here most of the time. I used to listen to Art
Bell on KOH in the car evenings in the back country mountains where the
coastal stations would not do as well due to phase distortion causing
the worst selective fading I have come across. Sure wish the car radio
had sync detection.

Night time AMBCB is terrible most of the time on any of the LA or San
Diego coastal stations with out sync detection.

Dale Sommers www.trucknbozo.com in an email to me this evening said
he gets his news from reliable sources that he has depended on for years
and he said I am listening to one of the most liberal radio stations
(WWL 870) in America and although they are still on the air,that doesn't
mean they are on top of things.(hang on a sec,let me read what else he
said,be right back) he said they are on generator power and they are
having to steal from (brb) CNN,MSNBC,Fox, (brb,be right back) and the
other networks that they can still receive via satellite.(brb) He says
they dont get out very far in the daytime because they are AM,he said he
guesses that doesn't have anything to do with the truth (brb) as long as
you think you know what's going on.(brb) He said if WWL is trying to
cover Governor Blanco's ass,they might wind up being called to task by
the FCC at some time in the future.

Hey,I am listening to WWL 870 in New Orleans and he! doesn't think I!
know what's going on in New Orleans.
