** CHINA [non]. Re my unlisted 9300 log, from a huge exhaustive all-band dekaday survey by Wolfgang Bueschel of ChiCom jamming: ``9299.959 0000-2359 TWN SOH Xi Wang Zhi Shen. Chinese Miaoli, S=9 at 00.40 UT on June 10.`` so it was SOH without jamming when he heard it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. Re my previous report about RHC, James Branum, OK, replies: ``Glenn, I think you are speaking about Elena Valverde. With regards to English fluency, I have met Irma (from the Mailbag show) on my two visits to RHC and can say she is extremely fluent in English. I hope to someday meet the other on-air staff, but so far have only met her. As to the issue of censorship... That is not how it works in Cuban state media today. It is much more understated with an emphasis on staying on message, presenting Cuba in a positive light, etc. This approach is not far removed from what most state and corporate broadcasters do. James Branum, KG5JST and RHC fan`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11670, June 11 at 0052, RHC S9+5 in Spanish and extremely distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC. 5040, June 11 at 0056, RHC in French is also extremely distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND [non]. 9955, UT Thu June 11 at 0100, new WRMI relay of RNZ as per updated sked at 0100-0130, with `Korero Pacifica`, as on WRN to North America at this hour, about topic-V of course; but it`s only 15 minutes followed by Vatican on WRN sked. So presumably not live // 13840 RNZI direct, unchecked, with different Pacifican programming scheduled for full hour. Heavy jamming before 0100 vs Alameda Bible Fellowship in English now slowly abates. But what is the point of onsending this to South America one day a week? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2037 monitoring: confirmed Wed June 10 from 2100:20 on WBCQ 7490v, JBA, unfortunately much worse than 24 hours ago.

Local wandering scratch-noise blobs, June 11 0038-0048 include: approx. 6900-6935, 9020-9080, 9360-9430, 9720-9800; and surely more splotches between 7 and 9 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0219 UT June 11
