``READ TODAY THE CUBA OF TOMORROW September 25, 2023 RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR -- Havana is involved in Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and this is the evidence 'Cuba is not part of the war in Ukraine,' claims the MINREX, but events over the last year and a half show otherwise.

Likely current radio war channel between Recep`s Turkey jammer and Dengê Gel, presumably via Uzbekistan. However, EiBi shows Sound of Hope, Taiwan, long hours on 11535.2 but no jammer; did not seem to be off-frequency. But SOH also in Aoki as *jammed on 11535 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2210) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sept 28 at 2158, VOT English not off the air today, ex-11785.003, so different transmitters?

From Dr Hj Biener: ```Dear Glenn, I just copied your weekly Digest and found this item of interest: ``230921 [and non]. WRMI 9955 schedule: since I was not hearing any jamming vs WORLD OF RADIO at 0100 UT Thu Sept 21, I took a look at the System B skedgrid to see just when jamming would now be ``necessary`` --- and see NO obviously Cuban exile programs on it any more. There used to be a weeknightly strip at 6 or 7 pm ET, Radio Libertad, was it? Gone. Maybe for a while, as not included on the outdated Aoki entries for 9955. [...] What about the Programming page? No exile programs there either. What happened to them? At least there is still Radio República on RMI via France 9490 and jammed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2209)`` Looking at WRMI schedules that I downloaded 230103 and 230218: 230103 Radio Libertad is listed at the System B schedule at Mo-Fr 1900-2000 h ET 230218 Radio Libertad is not listed at the System B schedule any more. Instead we find religious and DX related programmes at Mo-Fr 1900-2000 h ET. Interestingly, both System B schedules are listed as „Effective October 31, 2022“ Thus for the record we can conclude that this exile customer left the station in early 2023. According to my files Radio Libertad has been the only Cuban exile broadcaster using broker services of Radio Miami International (beside Radio República) since about 2017/18. The website https://www.radio-libertad.org/ is still there and provides a distorted stream. Kind regards, Hj.

Or forgot to turn off after 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2210) UNIDENTIFIED. 17790, Sept 28 at 0212, gospel huxter in English about anti-Christ, S9/+10 into Utah SDR; 0230 switch to another with no ID; off at 0303 check, so closing ID if any missed. Following this thread on the WOR iog: Andy Reid, Ont. at 0104: ``I am hearing something on 17790 that was on well before 0100. Singing or chanting. Some vocal. No trace of the BBC.`` Walt Salmaniw, BC, at 0131: ``Call To Worship by the Zion Chapel is the name of the program. Very strong into Masset. Then into Welcome to Bible Adventures with an Australian accented announcer at 0130. Transmitter hum is noted (not loud, but there) Walt`` Walt at 0201: ``At 0200 an ID: "You are listening to Radio PanAm". Huhh? Walt`` I, gh, reply at 0205: ``That would be Pan American Broadcasting, a.k.a. Radio Africa (toward S America) as on WRMI 17790 at 15-21, so WRMI extended, or another site? Not on WRMI grid. Glenn`` Wolfgang Bueschel: ``test of B23 season request channel?`` Kenneth Vito Zichi, MI: ``I've noted WRMI on 'early' and playing their typical 'pop/rock' oldies BEFORE Pan America programming comes on. 15770 is also nominally 24 hours but obviously propagation doesn't allow it to be heard such in any one place even if they are on the air. I think Jeff W likes to experiment and although I'm sure it isn't 'cheap', apparently the power bills to run a SW transmitter either aren't as bad as so many would like to imply or it is 'worth it' for him? I'm still amazed that so many people who identify as 'broadcasters' seem to have nothing nice to say about the medium and appear to only wish it a speedy death. That makes little sense to me. 73. //Ken Z`` 17790 I check again next day Sept 28 at 2230 into Utah SDR and UTwente: no signal, nor circa 0030 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2210) ** VANUATU. 7260, Sept 28 circa 0650, RV is JBA but can perceive some modulation.
