Exact frequency was 3265.13 kHz at tune in, drifted up to 3265.18 kHz by 0129 UTC. S7 (but lots of static) with the Raleigh, NC KiwiSDR.
0101 UTC-WBCQ ID
0101 UTC-Classical music (familiar but neither I nor Shazam can recall the title)
0102 UTC-Beginning of the "New Years Eve New Years Eve Show", hosted by two OMs, difficult to copy
0133 UTC-Program still going
0340 UTC-GONE
EiBi shows this schedule:
3265 0000-2400 USA Brother Stair E NAm
3265 0100-0200 Sa USA WBCQ The Planet E NAm
The part showing Brother Stair was just added recently and I am doubtful of its accuracy. Since the end of the program listed for Saturday (Friday local time) only I have not heard anything on the frequency.

The late Ralph Stair 24/7, is he a preaching zombie?

He indeed is, but apparently not on 3265 kHz and drifting. I have been checking daily to see if there is anything other than the broadcasts by the WBCQ staff at 0100-0200 UTC on Saturdays on 3265 kHz and I have seen no sign of it. Still nothing listed for the frequency in the schedule section of the (poorly maintained) WBCQ website but it is listed on the main page as one of their frequencies. Nothing about it on the WBCQ Facebook page either, which is updated daily with Radio Angela schedules for the day. I wonder what TX they are using that will drift that much?

A certain station engineer used to blame things like that on Weiner getting in the transmitter room and screwing around. Or so I've heard.

For them that's actually fairly close to being on frequency, their old 5110 transmitter was often closer to 5109.80 most of the time i would tune in. Considering that most of the stuff is cobbled together out of military surplus and converted AM broadcast rigs, its not a surprise.

Nothing by 0101 UTC today.
