** CUBA. 13740, Sunday May 12 at 1336, RHC `En Contacto`, Arnie opens
saying that bitrate has been improved on RHC webcasts; also archive of
programs by podcast, i.e. at
http://www.radiohc.cu/es/audios
including the latest EC already. I see that another show link has
unnecessary accent, ``El mundo de la FilatÃlia`` --- Âis that to make
clear it is not to be pronounced FilatelÃa?

English are here:

** IRAN. 7410, re my unID open carrier, May 12 at 0028, Wolfgang
BÃschel replies:

``IRIB Ramadan special of Azeri language noted on 7410.005, only S=6

I had searched for 7410 before but unfound; another version, from Ivo:

``IRAN Additional frequencies of PARS TODAY VIRI IRIB

So was my dead air in Azeri or Turkish?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Ray Robinson replies on the WOR iog about why I had no
signal from KVOH 17775, Sat May 11 at 1514:

``Sadly, another minor tube failure, awaiting replacement parts.
Should be back on by Tue/Wed [May 14/15]. Ray Robinson, Voice of Hope
World Radio Network, Americas/Africa/Middle East,
www.voiceofhope.com``

Now I am still wondering if this is about the old transmitter or the
``new`` one; unclear on what date new started, if yet. Apparently,
only one is operable now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

he is in Pleasant Hill, Missouri, in the Ozarx. Really? That town is a
suburb just SE of Kansas City. Boundaries of Ozarx are certainly
indistinct, but most maps show nowhere near this place, beyond
south/central Missouri. Maybe it`s just his Ozarx ``state of mind``.
And runs 35 minutes until 2415, back to hamstuff starting with
hardsell ad by Ted, tune out/turn off.
