By warm-up, I mean fully tunable. It seems to be receiving signals without much delay; it`s the audio output to speaker or phones which lags. I fear this may get worse and worse. Now am tempted to leave it on for hours between sessions, but not sure which would be worse: more on-and-off, or protracted on without use. Other annoying problem is tendency of frequency keypad to bring up not only the one I punch, but an adjacent number; or sometimes Enter before I am quite finished. Any advice? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 10080, Nov 29 at 0315, RHC harmonic again, S5/S9, tnx to tip from Jorge Freitas in Brasil, posted to WOR iog at 0310: ``10080 29/Nov 0304 CUBA Radio Habana Cuba.

Propagation must be iffy. Harold Frodge was hearing nothing in the Great Lakes - Michigan, unknown if referring to 10080 only or all three. 10050, Nov 29 at 0727 my next check, 10080 is off but 2 x 5025 Radio Rebelde is on! S9/+10, and 5025 is back after a long absence, at S8/S9. Then Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reported, via SDR Half Moon Bay CA, assuming all these are ``BAUta 100 kW 083&263 to Cuba``: ``Radio Habana Cuba in Spanish/English/Spanish on 5040 khz & 2nd hx 10080 kHz via Bauta, November 29: 0519&0559 on 10080 Spanish/English.
