is supposed to start today Sept 10. I tried to post this some days ago on the WOR
section of hard-core-dx, but it never appeared, and hcdx appears to be stalled for
a few days anyway, but I am sending this before the first scheduled broadcast!

** MEXICO [non?]. EXCLUSIVE: The World Trade Organization is about to meet in Cancún, México, but the opponents to globalization have been there the previous week organizing ``Contra-Cumbre`` protests and Independent Media Center coverage; more at http://cancun.mediosindependientes.org/
We are informed that there will be special shortwave broadcasts Sept 10 thru 14, on this approximate schedule:
Primary: 1700-0500 UT on 15045 Daytime alternate: 1700-2300 on 17552.5 variable Evening alternate: 2300-0500 on 9310 variable Depending on propagation and other factors, the broadcasts may run instead between 1900 and 0700 UT. Band changes will require at least one hour.
Note: We are assured this has NO connexion with RFPI, but a frequency near RFPI`s currently inactive channel was apparently chosen deliberately (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1198, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [non?]. A Special Event Transponder from Radio Free Cascadia email RFCI: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RFCI will broadcast on the world shortwave band to Central and America, September 10th to 14th. We broadcast in solidarity with the thousands of people who are protesting the World Trade Organization in Cancun, Mexico and around the world, indigenous peoples in the Americas and worldwide, and all others who are resisting oppression and global domination by corporations, governments, and trans- governmental capitalist organizations such as the WTO.
RCFI will relay streaming audio sources from Cancun, and will originate programming in Spanish and English, including live reports from Cancun, news, commentary, and music of resistance and revolution, especially from the Americas. Our signal will be directed at Mexico and may also be heard in Cuba, Colombia, Ecuador, Brazil, and other nations of Latin America, and in the U.S.
Radio Free Cascadia International is a direct action of resistance and solidarity. We modulate the air as freely as we breathe it, as a challenge to those who would claim ownership and control of the natural elements, peoples, and creatures of the Earth.
Broadcast Schedule
It is our intention that most of the broadcast be in Spanish, but we are not able to provide a language schedule at this time.
Primary Schedule: 1700-0500 UT (12 Noon-12 Midnight Central [Cancun] Time) on frequency 15045 kilohertz
Daytime alternate schedule: 1700-2300 UT (Noon-6 PM Central) on frequency 17552.5 kilohertz variable
