I'm at the point now where I list the program heard, show it as CM??
and Cuba and that's about it unless it's one which has been
historically stable as to program, call or location or is somehow
unique, or as happens once in a while, one actually ID's.

The combination of the Cuban government's secrecy and paranoia makes it
virtually impossible to maintain any meaningful information, whether
you're WRTH or anyone else.
