** CUBA. 9700, July 26 at 0318, RHC English not off the air, S9+30, erratic service instead of 6000. Something`s always wrong at RHC. However, this is an improvement, if they would stick to it.
9700, they did stick to it, also July 27 at 0243, S9+30/10 and good modulation. 6000 with JBA carrier, maybe what remains of Cuba as nothing else is scheduled after Iran until 0220 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9580, July 27 at 0247, S9+5 of Chinese in CRI relay but just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 5800, July 26 at 0325, jamming audible underneath WRMI Spanish mentioning communist/dictatorial regimes. Scheduled this hour is `Freedom Synergy Radio`, that pro-Taiwan in Latin America service. Yet another contradixion in WRMI skedgrid: 5800 is transmitter 10, shown this hour only atop as FSR on blue/green System B, which most of the time feeds into 9955. Yet the SysB sked shows this hour it be on 9955 with something else, R. Prague International[e] in English & French! And F.S.R. appears nowhere in the program blox! Nor is 5800 shown with anything during this hour on any System. Furthermore, F.S.R. is not to be found anywhere on the Programming page. AFAIK, this makes 5800 the only frequency Cuba bothers to jam besides 9955. And it may well erupt outside the FSR hour.
