slightly stronger, even when tuning USB. Same problem they`ve had for
years in A-seasons, but stubbornly stick to it. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler. S9+10/25 at 2250 into UTwente when measured,
with multi-lingual ID filler reel, Brasil not a problem there, JBA
with splash from Turkey. 2252 s/off claiming to be on 17620 at 1230,

** U S A. 1290, March 31 at 0635 UT, without really trying, as I tune
across, WIRL Peoria IL, announcing they are going to close down at
*noon* March 31 - so they did not mean midnight by ``12 PM``.
Permanent signoff, but conservative talk continues on so-called
``Freedom 95.9``. Then repeated. So that`s 1700* UT Tuesday March 31.
Less than one sesquihour to go as I [first] post this.

At 1655 UT March 31, I tune in via the ``Will it play in Peoria``
KiwiSDR, joining 5 others listening there. Same about-to-sign-off
announcement repeats over and over, then at 1658 a final final
announcement by a station official whose name I do not catch or
record, ``...for the final time, this is WIRL, Peoria, Illinois,
signing off``, and plug pulled right at 1700* UT. Nothing but noise in
the daytime. The closest surviving 1290s can be found in WI, MI, KY.
We may take some comfort in one less far-right talker infesting the AM
band. Here`s the remaining website:

day, who is also chief engineer, Wayne Miller, would be the one doing
the sign off and shut down.``

``I had read that too, but in fact it was Mike Wild who did the final
sign off. 73,
Nigel Pimblett, Dunmore, AB`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1680, March 31 at 0630, ``Super-tunes[?], 99.7 The Legend``
= KRJO Monroe LA, mere translator K259CU wagging this dog. Enid pirate
on 1680 carrying stream of Virtual DJ Radio is easily overcome a few
miles from it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1700 kHz, UT March 31, KKLF Richardson TX now dominant at
night with Mexmx, and English IDs at tops of hours, IIRC not
mentioning any Spanish slogan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5910, March 31 circa 06? UT, JBA carrier I did not even
log, but Wolfgang Bueschel reports this date: ``COLOMBIA 5909.981 kHz
Alcaraván Radio poor S=6-7 at 0457 UT``. Sibling LV de tu Conciencia
has been reliably on 6010+, but not the 5910. Per EiBi & Aoki A26, the
only other 5910 is Romania between 1430 and 2000, so should not be a
problem. However, HFCC adds that 5910 is a 24h standby/placeholder by
Vatican Radio for IRDR - the rarely if ever activated International
Radio for Disaster Relief (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
