** 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:

** 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)
