(Adrian M. Peterson, AWR DXplorer Feb 12) Hello, according of the link to the pictures of the AWR fellow Gungadoo Google Maps coordinates are different to map attached to the photos, which are 68 kilometers southwesterly.

I've my doubts on the Google Earth image marked as of 12 Aug 2009, compared to the Microsoft Virtual Earth image, which shows the two masts at Saadiyat in excellent sharpness.

(DrAgan Lekic-SRB, woR dxld Feb 1) Tnx to a tip from Dragan Lekic, V. of Croatia heard testing new 7385 kHz via Woofferton UK, Feb 2 at 0309 UT, YL with weather report in English, then something about recipes. This was // only a slight echo behind usual 7375 kHz, which is Wertachtal 100 kW at 300 degrees plus Nauen 100 kW at 325 degrees. But stronger signal from the Germans. Evidently VTC, or whatever it is called this week, is making a bid to take business away from DTK, or whatever it is called this week. Dragan says this test on 7385 kHz is for four nights only, UT Feb 2-5 at 03-05 UT. (Glenn Hauser-OK-USA, dxld Feb 4) Radio Republica 9810 kHz.

Contrary to a report from a Downunderite, that WWCR-3 is using 4775 kHz from 2300 UT due to an interference complaint to the FCC about 5070 kHz. 4775 really starts at 0300. Still on 5070 at 2311 check Feb 5 and after 0000, 0100 and 0200 Feb 6. WWCR has been on 5070 kHz for many years, and just now someone finds it a problem during the next nine hours?
