** CHINA. 9360, S6-S8 and 9970, S6-S7, April 30 at 1753 past 1800
without ID or any break, past 1818, both Firedragon jamming against
nothing else audible but listed RFA in Mandarin via Kuwait and Saipan
respectively. Rather surprised to be getting this around noon here. No
sign of any others above or below this band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD
OF RADIO 2032)
** CUBA [and non]. 7350, April 30 at 1309, RHC Spanish is S4-S6 and
undermodulated, ex-7340. Evidently moved because of someAsian on 7340;
seems like Chinese, but Aoki shows the only at this hour is National
Unity Radio, clandestine toward North Korea from Tajikistan site; as
long as AIR Mumbai be inactive. 9535 RHC is also on at 1314 check
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2032)
** CUBA. 13740 // 13700, April 30 at 1315, RHC on these two today but
no spurblobs; rather very weak leapfrogs on 13660 & 13780. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11790 & 11810, May 1 at 0019, RHC JBA parasitic carriers to
new 11800, so that proves they are the ex-11850 transmitter, ex-11840
always with the plus/minus 10 kHz sputnix. Something continues wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9340, May 1 at 0020, RHC is gone again after appearing on
this new frequency yesterday. Now 9535 and 9640 are still on.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.
11700 and 13740, onetime/sometime RHC frequencies are also off, May 1
at 0021. Wolfgang Bueschel notes new 15230 carries some Portuguese, so
that makes it ex-11700.
So a full survey of active Cuban SW frequencies, including CRI relays,
circa 0025 May 1, finds: 15730, 15230, 15120, 11760, 11670, 9640,
9535, 6145, 6060, 6000, 5990, 5040, 5025 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 4765, May 1 at *0030 sharp, carrier on from Radio Progreso,
but like last night, another fiasco, no modulation and keeps cutting
off and on after nominal sign-on time: 0033* off, *0036:35 back on and
off, *0040:35 on and off again; 0050 still off, so enough of that, but
by 0155 recheck it`s staying on with musical modulation. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** HONG KONG [non]. 9400, April 30 at 1313, heavy collision, at least
one in Chinese, fast SAH, another in classical music, and maybe a
third station. I figured it must be SOH or Taiwan or RFA piled upon by
ChiCom jammers, but Aoki and EiBi show the only station is Radio
Liangyou 1, via FEBC Iba site, PHILIPPINES at 1030-1400. It doesn`t
rate an entry in WRTH, just another Chinese broadcast of FEBC. But
originating in Hong Kong, does it have a political agenda beyond mere
evangelism, to merit jamming? The only other 9400 partially listed at
this hour is Brother Hystairical via Bulgaria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA SOUTH. 9095, April 18 at 1818, Korean at S7-S9, i.e. this
week`s jumparound frequency of Echo of Hope, clandestine for the
north. I often detect a carrier at many times on 9095, 9100 or 9105,
but rarely this good. 9 MHz must be in a sweet spot for reception from
E Asia, cf. Firedragon jammers from China. EiBi shows VOH not on the
air at this hour, but Aoki does (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA. 7254.9, April 30 at 0614, S9-S6 of dead air from VON.
Well, that`s something --- but not really better than nothing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Austria, Benin, China, Cuba and non, France, Germany, India and non,

** U S A. 6159.917V, May 1 at 0158, this WBCQ is on with Hal Turner
