** CUBA. 6140, Oct 6 at 0642, JBA carrier, presumed leapfrog mixing
product of RHC 6060 over 6100 another 40 kHz beyond, as possible when
both those be on, even tho 6100 be S9/+10 of dead air, and 6060
S9+10/20 of undermodulated English, none others. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. The Other Side:
``Opinion - Editorial: As Cubans take to the streets to protest, where
are Díaz-Canel and Raúl Castro? To crack down on the population now,
when international aid is being sought to solve their problems, would
be an inexcusable contradiction in the public's eyes.
DDC Madrid 03 Oct 2022 - 15:04 CEST
Cubans are once again taking to the streets to protest and make
demands of the Government, as their living conditions have
deteriorated significantly in recent days, and this is not because of
the hurricane that recently affected the western provinces.
All of Cuba is languishing without electricity and, therefore, in a
dire state in terms of access to food and hospital care, to cite just
two of the main deficiencies being suffered. Meanwhile, where is
Miguel Díaz-Canel? Where is Raúl Castro?`` ...

** CUBA. 5025, Oct 6 at 0648, S9+10/20, Spanish about weather and
power outages, presumed R. Rebelde reactivated rather than RHC, which
briefly occupied 5025 in a mixup with 5040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2159)
** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Oct 6 at 0632, JBA carrier presumed
R. Kiribati; only other 9/kHz carriers in bottom half are 774 and 684,
likely Spain remnants. Distance between Sevilla and Xmas I is 14736 km
= 9157 stmi = 7957 nmi, tho we are hardly at the midpoint which would
be circa Churchill, Manitoba. Simultaneous TA/TP demonstrates what
great DX range MW can have; if only obstructive AM would be abolished
in N America. Gary Pence was getting 846 weakly into Hawaii SDR at
0503 today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2159)
** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Oct 6 at 1501, V of Martyrs/Korea, already
YL in presumed Dhivehi instead of English, S9+10/20, the SSOB except
for Cuba and non on 11760, 11860, 11930, and of course blasting 12160
WWCR which just came up from 7490. However, 11825 is only S6/S8, the
admittedly Kununurra site for VOMK`s simulBurmese, belying my theory
that so is 11620. More about Maldives:

** U S A. 9955, 9455, 9395, 5950, Oct 6 at 0650, WRMI active on these
four only; and once again 9455 is splattering downward at least to
9415. At 1456, 9955 is S7/S8 quite undermodulated, and 9395, 9455 are
not sufficiently mod either. Next up: 5800, from Jeff White at 1442:
``Dear Friends, Colleagues and Clients of WRMI: I am happy to report
that our frequency of 5800 kHz is operational once again. It will come
back on the air at its regular airtime today [22-04 UT], and possibly
earlier. So now we have five frequencies operating again: 5800, 5950,
9395, 9455 and 9955 kHz. We continue to work on getting the other
frequencies back up. Thank you for all of your messages of support as
we make repairs from the damage caused by Hurricane Ian. Jeff White,
General Manager`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2159)
** U S A. 9330v, Oct 6 at 0651, WBCQ with country song, strange for
WLCR until listening to the repeating lyrix: ``There`s a dome over us;
There was no Big Bang; Space is a farce; No astronauts in space``,
i.e. the wacko dogma of World`s Last Chance Radio. 0655 cut to
menacing theme and British accent, that the End Is Near (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5890, Thu Oct 6 at 0640, WWCR-4 is off again unlike last
night, a mistake then? Also deprives us of leapfrog over 5935 to 5980
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 6 at 0645, no RV, nor any carrier on former
harmonix 7890, 7932, 8620, 11835. Barely awake at 0701, still no
11835. There they go again. Gary Pence agrees nothing from them this
date (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2159)
