** BRAZIL. Immediately after posting last log, Chris Mackerell, NZ
explains why RNA DRM is no longer making it to Bonaire: ``Change of
antenna beam. Good decoding here in New Zealand from 0400 UTC onwards.
Not 100% but some nice audio at times, and the Journaline news service
decodes. 73 Chris, Marahau, New Zealand`` --- Viz.:
``22 Feb --- In Brazil DRM on SW Being Redirected to the Populous
South-Central Part --- The Brazilian DRM shortwave transmission at
11910 kHz is now using an antenna that provides coverage for the
south-central part of the country.`` Plus the usual DRM hype:
https://www.drm.org/in-brazil-drm-on-sw-being-redirected-to-the-populous-south-central-part/
So now maybe some of the Brazilian SDRs are getting it sufficiently.
But, but, what about the dear Amazon, where DRM is so very much
needed? O wait, where were the receivers among the tribes? Is it still
carrying the Brasília 96.1 music FM channel? Ivo Ivanov replies: ``Very good signal with decoding February 24 at
0550 UT on 11910 kHz via SDR São Bernardo do Campo, Brasil``. So Feb 24 at 2356 I also check the SBC SDR and find an S8 signal but
solid decode of MPB and ID, 18+ dB SNR and 12.52 kbps, also headlines.
Distance 892 km = 554 stmi to SSE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) *** CUBA. 13765 approx., S9 FMish RHC spurblob with F# tone, Feb 24 at
1517, also circa 13836, 13634, 13566, first- and second-orders out of
13700-AM at about 65 kHz intervals. Something`s always wrong at RHC. I
continue to be amazed that everyone else seems to ignore these. RHC
does not deserve a pass for constantly messing up our spectrum (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, Feb 24 at 1852, RHC mentioning that today is 60th
anniversary of first ``Onda Corta Experimental Cubana``, leading up to
RHC inauguration officially on Mayday. I`ve read some dispute that it
axually started a few weeks earlier. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
Must be the most self-congratulatory of SW stations. It`s always
something (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GERMANY [non]. Re 15215, Feb 21 at 1600-1658: ``On Sun, Feb 21,

already, prior to 1900-2000 French; do they really need to waste so
many kWh warming up? Taxpayers want to know. Hey, why not warm up with
a least a fragment of VOA English modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2074 monitoring: confirmed
