** CUBA. 11880, Nov 4 at 1939, Kriyol S5/S6, // 15140 equal, i.e. RHC
on new, rather reactivated after years frequency. For B-15, WRTH 2016
had Creole at 1930 on 11670, but 11880 later, English to Africa at
2200. Surely also the 11880 open carrier I had yesterday at 2148

UNIDENTIFIED. 257 MCW kHz, Nov 4 at 0717 UT, NDB JBA, seems like FLO,
but no matches close enough listed; usually heard is JYR York NE
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15846-15902 approx., Nov 4 at 1936, multi-carrier,
multi-tones beating against each other, S9, again about 55 kHz wide,
like yesterday at 0613 covering 6860-6915, 0729 at 6895-6950, and
often around 17450. What are these? They could really QRM broadcasters
but seem to avoid doing so, e.g. nothing much in 15 MHz span than SOH
and ChiCom jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
