** CUBA. 890, UT Sun Aug 18 at 0147, show of Venezuelan music, but
it`s only ``La Onda de la Alegría``. So I seek the spurs on 889 & 891,
and do detect them but still JBA like when I am only hearing WLS on
890 itself, none of it now. WRTH and mwlist show only 2 Cubans on 890,
the 200 kW R. Progreso in Chambas, Ciego de Ávila; and unknown power
R. Revolución in Stgo., so is the latter the spursource?
I thought Ciego meant blind man, and so does Google translate, but:
``People also ask, ¿Por qué se llama Ciego de Ávila? La más aceptada
hoy explica que es fruto de la combinación de dos términos: uno
geográfico: ciego, nombre que recibe el claro dentro de un área
boscosa, y el otro el apellido del primer conquistador español que
recibió la merced del hato en 1538, nombrado este Jácome de Ávila.``

** MADAGASCAR. 17570, Aug 18 at 1427, algo the SSOB, much stronger
than JBA 17600 Algeria, off by 1429 recheck. It`s AWR in Sinhala - not
Sindhi! for Sri Lanka at 1400-1430 per Aoki & EiBi. Trans-equatorial
advantage, but way offbeam (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, UT Sun Aug 18 at 0143, jabbering loop from
a pirate, S9+10/20. These say it`s Sycko Radio:

** U S A. 7505, Aug 18 at 0159, ``Begin the Beguine`` by a jazzy
orchestra, nice and alarmingly secular - from WRNO?! S9+40/50. 0202
WRNO IDs, by Caleb Owens, e- and p-mail addresses, but 0203 back to
preachery (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1700 kHz, Aug 18 at 0150 UT, S9+20 open carrier and
steady S9+20, a local device? JBA English under, probably Iowa. Most
likely KKLF Richardson [The Metroplex] TX, where official sunset for 5
to 1 kW powerdown in August was 0115 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9229-9246 & 9416-9432 approxes., Aug 18 at 0204, same
OTH radar clickery, not very strong and not hitting any broadcasters
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15743-15749 approx., Aug 18 at 1429, DRMish noise, but
not 10-kHz bandwidth nor centred on a multiple of 5. Not found in DRM
skeds, nor EiBi nor Aoki which have nothing at all on 15745 - anyway a
good spot to insert something. Would you believe Aoki still shows WINB
in DRM on 15735 at 1400-1500 M-F, despite canceled months ago? Anyhow,
that`s close (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
