** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, July 26 at 1545, LRA36 has supposedly
stayed on all night until 1500 but it`s still on, as activity
publicity never seems accurately fulfilled; sufficient via Brasil SDR,
almost nothing but music; `Ave Maria` nice harmony hymn playing at
tune-in, then lots more secular? songs. 1606 mentions Santiago del
Estero; 1633 song about Provincia de Santa Fe; 1802 brief talk about
the music; 1816 at last canned LRA36 ID and plug `Corazón Antártico`
program. Finally cut off about 1833*. I had been listening with half
an ear all this time, mainly to WYSU`s pipe organ music. Let`s face
it, hardly any of the program content on LRA36 is about *ANTARCTICA*,
rather Argentina and lots of music which is hardly Antarctican either

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, July 26 at 1355-1400: NONE found WOOB in
the 13s, 12s, 11s, or 10s, but in the 9s: 9215, 9230 VP in Chinese; I
suppose due to depressed propagation rather than operation (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6100, July 26 at 0558, RHC English is S9+10/20 but suptorted,
and no signal on 2 x = 12200. 6000 is only S9 and also suptorted; 6145
S9 not distorted but undermodulated. 5040 off already. Something`s
always wrong at RHC.
Feliz 26; Patria o Suerte, ¡Pensaremos! I am still awaiting
photographic evidence that anyone has scrawled this, my contrarian
motto on a surface anywhere inside Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760 >> // 15140, Sunday July 26 at 1501, weekly RHC Spanish
opening; YL mispronounces Ameriko as Amériko; despite seeming fluency
cannot escape her native Spanish accentuation for Espo`s invariable
penultimate accent, so I don`t even stay tuned to hear her give the
wrong schedule. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

28276-CW, July 26 at 1423, VVV DE K - M/B, full call not copiable, but
this is the only one that fits frequency, letters, area:

on the min)``
``K4FUM USA flag, JERE T SANDIDGE, LOGANVILLE, GA 30052``
28264.3-CW, July 26 at 1446, VVV KD4AOZ/B, fast WPM and QRM from a
slightly different pitch/frequency. Copied as AOG but one of us must
have missed a dit:

``KD4AOZ USA flag, JEFFREY E CROWELL, WATKINSVILLE, GA 30677``

** U S A. 9330, Sunday July 26 at 1351, WLCR via WBCQ-6 is in Spanish
as scheduled before switch to English, S9+10/20. Maybe not off for
maintenance today? 1917 JBA carrier vs local noise blob (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9605, July 26 at 1353, gospel huxter in English, S9+10/20.
Aside from KBS relays at 01-02, WHRI on 9605 only this one hour per
week, per EiBi, to Central America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
