** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 23 at 2232, RNA/RNB again not off the air, jazz,
S9+20/30 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9790, AUg 24 at 0703, S9+30 of open carrier/dead air. Bigsig
has got to be transmitter relaying CRI scheduled 0300-0500 only in
English, Cantonese, but missing a lot lately. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Aug 23 at 2233, RHC #1 legacy frequency finally back
on air after long absence -- but with JBM Chinese music! Instrumental
only but not Firedrake. RadioCuba didn`t used to relay CRI at this
hour. This is so strong, S9+20/30, that it`s got to be Cuba rather
than China itself, also scheduled on 11760 this hour in ``Portuguese``
to Europe via Xi`an. At 2257, 11760 goes to dead air but still on air
past 2301; while:

13650, Aug 23 at 2259, RadioCuba on with open carrier, 2300 CRI theme,
Chinese & Portuguese IDs, for the traditional hour of fill music. 

13780, Aug 23 at 2233, RHC in Spanish, S9+20 with good modulation,
running about 2 seconds behind // 15230 which is S9+10/20 and
suptorted. 15230 is off by 2259: maybe moved to 13650 but not with
same defect. Anyhow it appears RHC is now capable of running 3
transmitters at once!

All those as monitored direct; into Georgia SDR at 2313, 11760
deadair, 13650 CC music, 13780 SS & music, 15230 off (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1390, Aug 24 at 0312, KCRC Enid dead air pinning the
needle S9+70? still dead past 0455+. I`ve left a radio on with volume
up to hear if and when it resume. Which it does, finally, blasting on
at 0500 sharp. Substation 1640 KZLS was also DA only S9+45 atop CCI.
But by 0639 next check, 1390 & 1640 are deadair again, and *0700 they
blast back on with baseball info; 1640 as usual is about 2 seconds
behind 1390 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15500, Sat Aug 23 at 2248, REE to NAm is still OFF, but the
other three are on in Spanish about Panamá: 17715 S9+20/30 > 15520 >
15390 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785+, Aug 23 at 2232, VOT not off the air and furthermore
in correct language, English, S9+20/30, best signal direct in a while.
At 2250 music has increased to S9+30/40. 2252 s/off as if it`s 17620
at 1230, awry at Ankara, and IS to 2253.7* chop (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 9750.008-, Sun Aug 24 at 1900, S9+40/50 into UTwente, VOT

Sweden, hard to understand names, passed on his comments on Turkish
politix. 2) Lela? Bell, Mr or Ms?, Netherlands, via UTwente, longtime
