** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, UT Sun Feb 19 at 0002, LRA36 test
first heard after 2000 Feb 18, and publicized as 2000-2300, is still
running, S7/S9 into Argentine SDR with music; 0012 it`s hard rock;
0015 plugs Panorama Nacional news originating at Esperanza during
entire month of January: how helpful; keep in mind for 2024y? 0027
``Comunicad`` promo. Unknown for how much longer, but Mick Delmage was
still hearing it at 0035; he and the other Albertan, Don Moman, were
getting it direct. But no way here with my HNL and inferior antenna

** BRAZIL. 7399.924, Feb 19 at 0754, JBA carrier from presumed Pará
pirate, R. Antares (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11670, Feb 19 at 0750, RHC Spanish still on here, S9+10/20
long-after-hours when nowhere on 5, 6, or 10 MHz bands - slanted news
about Yemen, etc. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side:
``Public Health --- Is Cuba planning on a Russian-style privatization
of its health system? A sector of the Cuban population, especially
those over 50, has for years accepted the lack of freedom entailed by
Communism in exchange for 'guaranteed health and education.' But what
about now?

A pharmacy without medicines in Havana. Diario de Cuba [caption]
Strange things are happening in Cuba. They have just granted
authorization to a MIPYME (TaTamanía) for doctors, nurses and
therapists to set up a private business taking care of the elderly.
And Havana has not reacted hostilely to the announcement of a private
business (Horus Intellicare Solutions) to provide telemedicine
services in Cuban territory from the United States, where the
community of exiles will pay for the medical attention for their
family members and friends on the island.
What is the reason for the regime's silence and tolerance of these
developments while new and stricter measures are being devised against
the exodus of doctors and nurses from the public health system?``...

** MEXICO. Quick check of the 10m ham beacon sub-band first hits two
regular XEs; quite a few others uncopied but not chock-full as often
happens now. These would be sporadic E rather than F2, with WI5V and

** NORTH AMERICA. 11950 USB, Feb 19 at 0045, poor S3/S4 into Maryland
SDR with music reported as classical. With ACI but clear here; CNR1
jamming and RFA Tibetan via Kuwait should start at 0100 when I do hear
a timesignal. First reported to WOR iog:
``11950 Feb 18 0025 UNID in USB mode. Classical music in sequence
without narration. Excellent signal on Atlanta SDR. Here in my QTH
good signal. None of the other broadcasts from Cuba feature classical
music at this time. Announcer with ID in English at 0030, but I
couldn't identify. Can someone help me? Still streaming. 73 Jorge
Freitas, Feira de Santana, Bahia 12°14´S 38°58´W - Brasil, Tecsun
PL-660, XHDATA, Antenna Delta Loop and LW 20 meters`` - Cuba not on
11950 weekends.
At 0158, a reply: ``Hi, Jorge - This is pirate station Mix Radio
International on 11950, according to the HF Underground board. By the
way, here near Seattle, it's a very good signal on 11950. It's even
very audible here without USB on. Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens,
Washington``. And later at 0310 from him:
``I'm not sure when the station switched frequencies, but after hours
on 11950, pirate MRI is now on 11935 USB with classical. Sounds good
here on the U.S. West Coast! Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens,
Washington``
11935 USB, so I try that and 0418, S8/S9 into northern Utah SDR, with
more familiar classical music than before but no IDs of the music.
0433 YL IDs like ``Finest Sounds: You are listening to MRI, Mix Radio
International, Worldwide`` and at 0444 inviting reports to
mix.radio.international@protonmail.com

2300 English for NAm, S9+25/35 into UTwente, music, 2351 multi-lingual
ID filler reel - you never know when or where this or other regular
features will appear during the hour, but this just in time before
2354 s/off with schedule atop CCCCCCI; 2355 IS, 2356 German IDs
inserted but cut off 2358* before bonus German hour, ceding to the
XJPBS ChiCom, std denunciation. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
