** CUBA. 6060, March 21 at 0619, RHC English with huge humbuzz and
spreading out plus/minus 15 blocking 6070 CFRX; 6100 still on but
S9+10/20 of dead air. 6000 is off, but by 0632, 9700 is still on VG
S9+30. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13376 trace, 13491 S2, 13506 S3 vs CODAR, 13571 S8, 13635 S8;

after 1418, FMish spurblob panoply out of fundamental 13700-AM S9+20.
All approx., at ~65 kHz intervals with F-natural tones, on the fringes
the only reveal. Not in the order tuned. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GUATEMALA. Reply received March 20 from Dr Madrid at Radio Verdad,
not including a QSL per se:
``Thank you, Glenn, for your concern about Radio Truth. We are on the
air already with only 250 watts. We plan to fix another module very
soon, in order to increase power. May God bless you and keep you on a
good health.

The 5 attachments are:
1) one-sheet 2021 calendar with portraits of station people
2) Same calendar expanded to 8 pages pdf, enlarged month by month with
events, slogans; not including start of spring --- too pagan? Or
negligible in the tropix?
3) Pennant; I have several real ones
4) Bumper sticker, ditto

** IRAN. Iran quitting SW as of today - Happy New Year
From new foroDX iog: ``LV De la República Islámica de Irán deja la OC
--- AER, 14 marzo 2021 22:22 22:22,
https://aer.org.es/archivos/26437
Según este audio difundido por el Whatsapp de La Voz de la República
Islámica de Irán y mandado por Dario Gabrielli, la emisora dejaría la
onda corta el próximo día 21 de marzo, pasando a solo emisión por
Internet. Debemos recordar que ya hubo un supuesto comunicado por
correo electrónico hace unos meses que decía que también dejaría la
onda corta, y no fue así.``
And from March 20: ``Hola, Al final del programa de hoy 20/03/2021 de
LV de la Rep. Islámica de Irán en español, Pars Today, han anunciado
que dejan de emitir en onda corta desde el día 21. Curiosamente, hoy
dia 20 de marzo es el último día del año persa. Un saludo -- Pedro
Sedano, Madrid, España``
``Juan Ignacio Gutiérrez Marí 11:34am #18 --- Bueno, otra emisora que
desaparece de la Onda Corta. Veremos si aumenta sus oyentes, a través
de Internet. Habrá que comprobar la calidad del streaming.``
``Hola, En teoría continuan en la web de Hispan TV, no en la de Pars
Today, es decir, https://www.hispantv.com/ aunque si haces clic en el
enlace superior de Radio, no pasa nada. Debes situar el ratón sobre TV
en Directo y entonces sale lo de la Radio en Directo; vaya chapuza. la
web es https://www.hispantv.com/directo-radio
Un saludo, Pedro Sedano, Madrid, España``
``Juan Ignacio Gutiérrez Marí 11:42am #20 --- Lo lógico es que
emitieran desde la web de Pars Today. Si hay que ir a otro sitio y
está escondido el acceso, les auguro poco éxito. Un saludo a todos.
Asociación Española de Radioescucha``
From Célio Romais, Brasil, March 20: ``El viernes fue la última
edición del programa Conversando con Nuestros Oyentes y la despedida
de los locutores de Voz de Irán en la onda corta! Este domingo es la
última transmisión. Sigue el audio que grabé.``
To the WOR iog: ``Spanish still on the air this Sunday, as scheduled
(0723 on 15200 and 17630). Jean-Michel Aubier, France``
I post at 1518 March 21: `Célio Romais heard IRIB in Spanish announce
that their last SW broadcast would be today Sunday. Maybe that also
applies to English. Check it right now: English has been scheduled
only: 7300 at 1520-1620; 6040, 11880 at 1920-2020. Glenn``
``At 1520 into UTwente, China/Taiwan radio war is raging on 7300. Iran
is aimed 105 degrees for this English. New Delhi SDR gets nothing on
7300. Maybe better luck at 1920 when 6040 is 313, 11880 at 198
degrees. Glenn``
Jean-Michel AUBIER, Framce: ``Tehran heard on English at 1545 on 7300
with a feature about spring in Afghanistan mention on parstoday.com``
Wolfgang Bueschel, Germany, at 1732 UT:
``A LOT OF SERVICES ARE STILL on air TODAY MARCH 21 !

gh: Here`s the full registered B20 schedule to keep checking:
http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbyfmo.php?seas=B20&fmor=IRB
By Monday, presumably all will be silent, not yet today Sunday.
Roberto Scaglione, Sicily at 1757: ``Italian is on air today....``
That would be 5930. At 1840 into UTwente, still Albanian on 7305,
5925; presumed Hausa on weaker 9475.
6040 last? 1918:10 carrier cut on briefly and off again. English is
just starting, cut on air to stay at *1920:45. Good into UTwente. But
JIP some program is closing?? Says 1920-2020 on 6040, 11880, FM 91.5,
satellites, internet, phone; music not IS. Program feed may have
really started an hour earlier due to DST confusion? We`ll see what
follows. No, 1929 ``This is IRIB English radio; coming up is the
news``. 1930 chimes and news starting with nuclear deal, Yemen vs
Saudi Arabia, anti-coronavirus restrixions. Music keeps playing during
headlines. Hmm, American accents but a bit of an anti-American slant
