** CUBA. 13771 & 13629 approx., March 13 at 1503, extremely distorted spurblobs from RHC 13700-AM. At first there is no recognizable program audio. By 1523 there is a bit in FM or AM tuning, the F# tone more evident in AM. Also then found second-order blobs circa 13558 & 13842, i.e. plus and minus 71 and 142 kHz. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But not this, when checked March 10, 11 or 12 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Fri March 12 at 2300, REE S9+15/40, not off the air, with timesignal only about 0.5 second later than WWV, Spanish ID and opening token English. This time Alison Hughes presents a show about the Teatro Real producing, despite the pandemic, `Siegfried`, part of Wagner`s Ring cycle. Bits of music and interviews with several people involved in the opera from singer to conductor, producer, some in Spanish only. At 2310 one of them could not resist comparing the concept of the Ring, quest for Godlike power at the ruination of mankind and the planet, to Trump (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. 6135, March 13 at 0628, French mentioning ``Afrique`` just before 0629*; HFCC shows 0600- BBC via VATICAN to CIRAF 37, which is Iberia, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia. Also with a LAH, probably from always off-frequency Aparecida, Brasil (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2077 monitoring: almost confirmed Saturday March 13 from 1325 until music start at 1329, JBA 15770 WRMI; nothing readable but sounds like my intonation for the 1300 broadcast. Also confirmed Sat Mar 13 at 1700 on WRN North America webcast, after FSN headlines. I think this will stay at UT 1700 for the rest of March despite the imminent imposition of DST over here.

A bit came thru at 0159 when it seemed to run overtime past 0200. So this week only John Carver`s summary: ``AAWWW --- Tonight's show started on time on 7490 and a few seconds later on 6160. Allan and Angela still in Maine. Immediately after the theme music stopped, a rant about cancel culture started. Topics covered included children's cartoons, Uncle Ben, children's books, Aunt Jemima, the Land O'Lakes Indian, etc., and then morphed into the gender wars. Discussion was interrupted at 0122 by a phone call from Kracker but he continued the discussion and the discussion ran until 0150 when Allan started reading emails. First off was the new Free Radio Weekly. Quick closing prayer at 0200. Program was off the air at 0202. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1930 UT March 13
