** BRAZIL. 11780, July 16 at 0021, RNA is S9+10/20 and again suptorted with enthusiastic futebol? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, July 15 at 1350: None heard in the WOOB 13s, 12s, 11s or 10s; depressed propagation today with K index of 2 at 1500, Solar Flux 69 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13650, July 15 at 2321, suptorted Chinese music fill instead of scheduled CRI Portuguese relay. On July 13, Rick Barton in AZ caught this transmission carrying CRI English instead; July 14 back to the usual. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13740, July 16 at 0020, RHC Spanish at S9+10/20 but JBM, better than 11800 dead air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, UT Wed July 15 at 0626, RHC `DXers Unlimited` final repeat is just starting as I tune by, Arnie says for next 10 minutes but really lasts only until 0633; reminiscing about his first ham call once the Commies were in power, granted in October 1959, CM2DL, altho he had been allowed to operate a friend`s ham station before then, Elmer? I believe that CM- prefices were/are for novices; eventually became CO2KK, which should not be pronounced in Spanish unless with `kilo` fonetix. His slurred speech is not too disturbing today. Also on 6145 but not much on 12200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, 9690-, 11770-, 15120, July 15 at 0620, VON cannot be found on any of its known frequencies, at least three of which have been employed recently for this Hausa hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, July 15 at 2158, VOT already on with IS and English ID, S7-S9 but undermodulated, 2200 timesignal two seconds late, so what good is it? Don`t you believe; sign on delayed or lacking modulation at first. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A.
