** CUBA. 890, UT Sun Aug 18 at 0147, show of Venezuelan music, but it`s only ``La Onda de la Alegría``. So I seek the spurs on 889 & 891, and do detect them but still JBA like when I am only hearing WLS on 890 itself, none of it now. WRTH and mwlist show only 2 Cubans on 890, the 200 kW R. Progreso in Chambas, Ciego de Ávila; and unknown power R. Revolución in Stgo., so is the latter the spursource?
I thought Ciego meant blind man, and so does Google translate, but: ``People also ask, ¿Por qué se llama Ciego de Ávila? La más aceptada hoy explica que es fruto de la combinación de dos términos: uno geográfico: ciego, nombre que recibe el claro dentro de un área boscosa, y el otro el apellido del primer conquistador español que recibió la merced del hato en 1538, nombrado este Jácome de Ávila.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 17570, Aug 18 at 1427, algo the SSOB, much stronger than JBA 17600 Algeria, off by 1429 recheck.
