Glenn Hauser logs July 13, 2021   
Wednesday, July 14 2021

Hauser
** CUBA. 13761 & 13639 approx., July 13 at 1447, weak spurblobs with
F# tones, no readable modulation even in FM mode; plus/minus ~61 kHz
from 13700-AM which is only S7-S9 and undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 7435 & 7335, July 13 at 0643, R. Martí is again on
late, very strong but now jamming audible under; also 6030 weaker; due
to the unrest in Cuba.

Dan Robinson, a critic of his former employer, suggests that at long
last OCB has fulfilled its mission to stir up trouble inside Cuba;
Radio Free Asia still working on their targets:

``It was no secret that Radio Marti (before TV Marti) was specifically
designed to encourage anti-Castro government feelings in
Cuba. [...] So, what I am saying is that in a way, the purpose, going
back to the earliest days of Radio Marti, has been achieved --
riots/unrest in the street directed at the post-Fidel Castro
government. It's as simple as that...`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, July 13 another Tuesday so time for another
weekly Kashmir Civitas clandestine via apparent ROMANIA. Starts at
1500 with S9/+25 signal into UTwente SDR, in Urdu but English term
``foreign occupation``, strumming underneath, mentions Kashmiri. 1525
checked direct and no signal here. 1528 Salaam Aleikum, and azad,
azad. 1528 very abrupt IRRS-style cut to blues song by woman in
English, ``If you don`t want me, it`s up to you---`` and cut off air
at 1529* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Alberta, reports:

support: thanks this week to Moises Corilloclla, Rego Park NY, for
a check in US funds on a US bank, to:

** U S A. Another sporadic-E FM DX opening July 13, from FL, GA, SC,
including a few of the same stations heard July 11. For more details
about how I go about such DXing and logging, see that report.

All times UT! Circa 1700 I`m listening to KUCO 90.1 Edmond OKC on a
household radio when it`s getting some talk CCI unlike that from KHCC
KS especially at midday minimum. The opening must have been underway
for some time when I get to the car surrounding a 2004 Nissan Sentra
stock radio with nothing but its vertical antenna from the right front
hood, facing northward inside the warming garage. It`s already tuned
to 100.3 so DX immediately when I turn it on:
