** CUBA. 15370, Nov 16 at 2054, RHC S9+25 in suptorted French, while
English on 15140 is not so bad. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

Time for another episode of The Other Side, lest we be swayed by RHC
propaganda, even if we could understand it:

``The Success of #15NCuba --- For those who dreamed of a sudden end to
the dictatorship, not much happened…but for those who understand that
outcome as the result of an already- irreversible process, the
November 15 demonstrations were a triumph...``

And as I write this on the PBS Newshour:

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Nov 16 at 1610, routine check for weekly
Tuesday clandestine Kashmir Civitas via IRRS via Romania: NO signal
into UTwente. Is it all over? I garbled it again last time as
``Citivas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PUERTO RICO. Re my lament that DDP beacon on 391 is not being
heard, this reply: ``Hi Glenn! Yes, I was the listener who last
reported hearing beacon DDP-391 on Nov 7 with complete details, which
is why my logging shows up in the RNA Signal List. On the NDB
Groups.io list, several listeners reported it off starting around Nov
10, but it has since been reported on the same list as being back on
around Nov 15. None of these listeners reported their reception
details, so their reports do not show up on the RNA Signal List. One
of the listeners who keeps careful track of NOTAMs reporting that
there was none issued for DDP during this period. Steve Howe, Saint
Albans, VT``

Guess what, in the meantime I did log DDP for the first time this
season: 391 MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0735, DDP; also audible tuned to 389
USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 359 MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0737, SDR, 25-watt ND beacon at
Snyder TX, not far from OK but seldom herd; tuned to 358 USB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7240 LSB, Tue Nov 16 at 2105, ``No Name Net`` taking 15
check-ins, some talkovers, including from KS and OK. First QSO seemed
about random topix as to be expected. This appeared in final edition
of John Norfolk`s ``Nets to You`` schedule of April 2007 when it was
at 2200 M/W/F on 7230-LSB in Central US (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2112 monitoring: despite my best plans,
missed checking Tue Nov 16 at 2330 on WRMI 9955, which Richard Lemke
caught last week. But Jeff White now confirms it has started at that
new time and his schedule has been updated. Next:
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 5010 to S

** U S A. 9275, Nov 16 at 2059, still no sign of a signal from the new
WMLK transmitter, which had been projected for end of October. So?
Nothing later than this at:

Greetings and welcome to the WMLK Radio website. It has been the
purpose of WMLK to fulfill the prop {sic, cut off, --hecy etc.?}

** U S A. RF 14, Nov 16 at 1658 UT, KERA-HD breaks thru with ``KERA
KIDS`` full-screen ID on 13-1. I get 13-2 to PSIP as kids -- lower
case, as another PBS station overdoes it with *two* channels for them
during daytime. Rabbitears.info shows KERA also with 13-3 Create and
13-4 World Channel; did not get to those before fadeout. KETA OKC has
its 2, 3 and 4 in different order: -2 World, -3 Create, -4 Kids.

I was sitting on RF 14 as it looked liable to decode: would it be KOCY
OKC LP? From 1630 I was getting lots of tropo-enhanced BAD signals,
such as 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 21, 26; while some `local` OKC channels
were not decoding, no doubt because of DX QRM, even really local Enid
powerhouse K17JN-D. Two Tulsa marketers did come thru, RF 20 and RF
28.

I was expecting KS instead of TX, since KHCC 90.1 was completely
overriding KUCO when trying to hear `Stardate` at 1558: only barely by
nulling R Kansas as much as possible by pointing the PL-880 rod toward
KS. KERA and DFW Metroplex happen to be almost same direxion from here
as OKC where the TV antenna is aimed. Rabbitears shows KERA`s 975 kW
ERP direxional for the northern hemisphere from Cedar Hill antenna
farm at SE corner of Dallas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
