Re: [HCDX] Cuban Radio celebrates its 85th Anniversary

[Henrik Klemetz <hklemetz@xxxxxxxx>]

As happens with history books written by the victors, some features are magnifed and others neglected. In this online survey, 37 years of Cuban radio is summed up in two or three sentences.  Also, as everyone can see, the local Cuban AM stations are listed without mention of frequency.
I recently asked Arnie Coro of Radio Habana Cuba to supply some frequency info for domestic Cubans on AM on his show. The answer was negative. Such info would not be of interest to his audience, he said. 
He referred me to the list which appears on this site. It had been produced by one of his students, he added. 
Should I be surprised? I guess not. For almost 50 years, the only frequency info readily offered by the Cubans to the World Radio TV Handbook has been that of Radio Habana Cuba.  For AM /medium wave/ frequency listings the WRTH has had to rely on DXers.
Anyone believe the upcoming 2008 edition will be an exception?
