** CUBA. 9600, Oct 19 at 0654, RHC Spanish, VG S9+10, starting
deportes report. Quite a while since I`ve found RHC on any overtime
frequency. Missing from Aoki but EiBi shows Spanish to S America at
00-05 only. Also absent from ITU latest A23 sked as of July 18, nor
B23. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2213)
** KOREA NORTH. 11735, Oct 19 at 0710, very distorted talk at S6/S8,
presumed VOK. Aoki shows nothing else on 11735 at any time, this hour
in Russian; EiBi adds Zanzibar with poor audio at 1459-2100, but have
seen no reports of it for many month (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 6200, Oct 19 at 0633, JBA carrier, presumed pirate Hikari
FM, S7/S8 about equal to noise level. Nothing now from other NAm
pirates on 7300v, 7320 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2213)

** U S A. 9955, Oct 19 at 0641, TOMBS via WRMI-3 with crackly
modulation as often here, but no such problem on // 5850 WRMI-12. So
is it a WRMI-3 transmitter problem? Nor noted on 9955 elsewhen (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5890, Oct 19 at 0631, WWCR-4 is off again as scheduled
overweeknights; a fluke being on last night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, Oct 19 at 0635, WRNO is OFF. We never know whether
they may run all-night, and have not checked for it earlier from 0100,
but Ron Howard says, ``USA[non-log]. 7505, WRNO, on Oct 18, believe
this has been off the air for three days now! Ron California`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2213)
