** 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)

KS especially at midday minimum. The opening must have been underway

stock radio with nothing but its vertical antenna from the right front
hood, facing northward inside the warming garage. It`s already tuned
