CUBA. 6060, March 19 at 0239, RHC Spanish S9/+10 but big humbuzz.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. Had been starting circa 0300, but DST
probably earlied it to 0200? Iran finishes Arabic at 0230 but then
there`s the Algeria/France hour at 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)CUBA. 13630 and weaker 13770 distorted spurblobs, March 19 at 1432,
plus & minus ~70 kHz from RHC 13700, with F-natural tone. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 15426 approx., March 19 at 1441, extremely distorted spurblob
with music of the RHC ilk, but something NEW here. Yes, can // it to
15140 and 15230. Separation is plus 286 kHz from 15140, and nothing
between them, but also a trace at minus 286 = 14854. Still there at
1501, after 15230 has closed. 15140 itself is slightly distorted.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
