Marti to Cuban mercenaries for Russia in Ukraine. Was also missing and found nowhere else on April 30. Again May 1 at 1720-1725 UT I do a quick but thorough bandscan and find it nowhere else on the 21, 17, 15, 13 or 11 MHz bands. Propagation is degraded but VOA still manages a good signal in English from Grimesland on 17530 kHz, and Marti to Cuba on 13605 kHz, while 11930 & 11860 kHz are JBA absorbed. It's done for now but unconfirmed whether permanently canceled. Could it be they got zero listener response? I'm on a Martinoticias mailing list and never saw any reference to this secret? service. Now I search the website on Ucrania and get loads of hits on stories men- tioning it but nothing about the broadcasts; however this brief about the mercenaries: <https:\\www.martinoticias.com/a/mercenarios-cubanos-en-la-invasi%C3%B3n- rusa-en-ucrania-7-meses-de-silencio/387853.html> Then no significant hits searching on the 4 frequencies used: 17680, 17690, 17865, 17870 kHz, but no hits on 13605 or 13.605 kHz either as if SW were irrelevant.

I vaguely recall it once ended at 11970 but now per ITU it`s 11600-12100 --- that still leaves broadcasters below 11600 and above 12100 as intruders into utility bands. Klingenfuss 2022 has no ute between 11760.8 and 12109. Can anyone ID this, should it recur?
