```El Madurismo-Castrismo Won't Go Away Quietly --- To restore
democracy, the Venezuelan people must not only square off with Maduro
and his thugs, but also with the repressive, logistical, political and
counterintelligence machinery of the Castroist tyranny

``Totalitarianism vs authoritarianism: the differences between the
regimes of Cuba and Venezuela --- Left-wing dictators never consider
relinquishing their power. History comes to a standstill when they
entrench themselves in government palaces. --- Orlando Freire Santana,
La Habana 12 Ago 2024 - 15:09 CEST

The regimes of Cuba and Venezuela comprise what we could term Latin
America's “extreme left.” Internally, they share several similarities,
such as a disdain for democracy and an excessive attachment to power.
Externally, meanwhile, they share an animosity towards the United
States Government, as well as a willingness to serve as pawns of the
Kremlin's geopolitics. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is possible
to note important differences between the political systems of Havana
and Caracas...``

** OKLAHOMA. RF and virtual 13, Aug 14 at 0358 UT, legal ID break
slide on KETA 13-1 OKC shows calls of the four major OETA stations,
including KOED channel 11, Tulsa -- but there`s a tail on that O ! ---
it`s a Q, I am rather sure tho had only a few sex to view it; they
made a typo in their own ID. I notified them that San Francisco would
not appreciate that, but no reply. In the past when I have pointed out
problems, they tried to weasel out of them. So it`s another Okie
mis-IDing itself, after K17JN-D Enid as ``K17JI-D`` which is really
another California station; Q.E.D. Checking KETA exactly 24 hours
later, the KQED slide did not appear (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. George McClintock tells me the other WTWW
transmitter is now activated effective today Aug 15 with TOMBS at

on new 5920. Times may expand later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO

15390. Preview topic to be the 70th anniversary of some ``gag law``
reforms which are now being reconsidered, interview with someone from
Amnesty International (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This log was mis-dated as Aug 13; corrected:

** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 14 at 2158, and later 2203, 2212 chex direct, NO

** U S A. 5010, Aug 15 at 0636, this WRMI is off, but 9955 is still on
in RFI Spanish; usually the two run late on the same nights but with
different programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Aug 15 at 0633, no signal from WRNO, gone again after
late broadcast last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1100 kHz, Aug 15 at 0642 UT, dead air which must be usual
dominant signal from WTAM Cleveland OH, which normally is // 1110 KFAB
with C2CAM. Yet I still have a much weaker C2CAM under the open
carrier. But new NRC AM Log does not show any other C2C station on
1100, so really WTAM but undermodulated? I am not about to hunt thru
every state in the affil list not by frequency:

UNIDENTIFIED. 891 kHz, Aug 15 at 0648 UT, het against WLS 890, and
none on 889, so presumed ALGERIA again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR0
