So please confirm whether it's really RUI in English again at 0000-0100 on
7440 kHz instead of VOR. Reception here too poor to tell at 0015 UT July 2
check.

Yes, it was. 2300-2400 UT and now again from 0100 RUI in Ukrainian was
carried on 7440 kHz, too. The transmission appeared to be pretty
undermodulated, but this could have been a deception, caused by the signal
being rather backscatter than direct reception here, just a bit more than
600 km from the transmitter location.
Earlier 6145 kHz carried the scheduled programming until 2400. It is
supposed to be followed by 7420 kHz, beamed to western Siberia, after 0000
UT, but no trace of such a signal here. Until 2400* UT 6145 kHz was pretty
strong, so at least a faint trace of a transmission on 7420 kHz should
have been audible here.
Now the interesting question is whether the new 11655 kHz relay of VOR
German 0900-1000 UT still exists or has again been bumped as well. It
could be that I will still be asleep at this time, so if someone else
could check it out...
Poor reception? I find the other way round WBCQ on 7415 amazingly strong
here, relaying the big sponsor of North American shortwave broadcasting,
only interrupted by a canned WBCQ ID at 0100 hourtop. Also pretty good are
Greenville with Radio Marti on 7365, Bonaire on 6165 and 6190, Cuba on 60
and 49 metres. Also WWCR on 4840 and 5935 kHz comes in. Sackville is
remarkable for a just barely readable CBC North on 9625 kHz, something I
never heard before.
