[HCDX] Re CRI using Brazil.

["Sean \(G4UCJ\)" <g4ucj@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well according to the HFCC, for what it's worth, CRI do indeed use Brazil as
a relay:

CRI  0100 0200 1234567 14,16 9665 250 BRA B 300303 261003 D RTC
CRI  0300 0400 1234567 10-12 9665 250 BRA B 300303 261003 D RTC

As you can see this information is supposed to be 'in date' and supposedly
correct. Getting detailed information from CRI regarding sites and relays is
not that easy. According to HFCC, CRI uses transmitting facilities in the
following countries:

China, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Spain (1 transmission from 0200-0400 on 9690),
France (ISS), French Guiana, Mali and Russia.

I hope this clears up where the confusion is coming from.

Sorry for the apparent problem I have caused in asking this question. The
basis
of my question is from a confusing comment on page 481 of the 2003 WRTH and
I
quote:
 in reference to China Radio International, "Relayed via: CRI Exchanges
transmitting facilities with R. Canada Int, R. France Int, R. Exterior de
Espana
and V.O.Russia, also relay facilities in Brazil, Cuba and Mali."

I can only assume the RFI facilities means France and/or French Guiana.
Cuba, OK
there are a good number of transmissions from there to the US. Mali is to
Asia.
So that leaves the "Brazil" relay.

Maybe I should direct a query to CRI themselves and see if this is a WRTH
typo
or if they really have something down there.
