** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Wednesday June 8 at 1454, LRA36 is
already on with music prélude, S3/S7 into Argentine SDR. 1500 canned
sign-on in languages, Antártida song. 1508 YL with live-sounding
opening, mentioning staff names, for this program #6 of the season.
Usual mix of historical info, conversation, contact info, etc. But I`m
too busy to detail or follow past 1532 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11850, June 8 at 0614, RHC English! S9+10/20 and suptorted;
also JBA & JBM parasite carrier spurs on 11840 & 11860, encountered
whilst checking for missing 11835 Vanuatu. 11850 at this hour is
totally bonkers. Aoki shows it at 22-06 in Spanish but not heard as
late as 0600; EiBi shows 21-05. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
Otherwise in English 0615+: 6000 S9+10/20 weather, suptorted but
better than 11850; 6060 S9+10/20 with hum; while 6100, 6165 and 5040
are all off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9790, June 8 at 0623, huge open carrier S9+20/30. Got to be
