** CANADA. Checked RCI 9515 again 24 hours later, May 20 at 2145 and no spurs in the 9.3 or 9.7 MHz area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1461, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake May 20 at 1319: best on 13970, next best 9000, and just barely audible on 8400, all // synchronized (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. DentroCuban Jamming Command pulses interfering with WORLD OF RADIO on WRMI, 9955, May 20 at 0503. Excuse me if I continue to be upset about Cuban jamming, especially against non-Spanish, non-exile broadcasts. How many of you can say that you are jammed by the pals of ``your friend in Habana``, Arnie Coro, whose own DX program is immune from jamming? This was a repeat of WOR edition 1460, as 1461 starts this week on UT Thursday May 21.
9560 with hash against weakest R. Australia signal at 1300 May 20, from the Cuban relay of CRI on 9570, and also traces of same audible under strongest RA signal 9580. These must be what ruin RA reception in Ontario, as Andy Reid reminds us.
After missing a few days, RHC`s 12000 was back May 20 at 1318, despite V of Russia Chinese service co-channel. The two were about equal levels here, despite Cuba`s extreme proximity advantage, taking turns dominating. Still same at 1345, when Russian song being played, but announcements in Chinese. At least the VOR transmission has been cleaned up to lack all the dirty splash above and below. I suppose the clash is less of a problem in RHC`s 12000 target area of ``Nueva York``, while there are plenty of clear //s, 11760, 13680, 13760, 13780, 13880, 15120, 15360 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WWCR, 15825, May 20 at 1324, tnx sporadic E inbooming so much that the squeal was audible beneath the jailed Tony Alámo, whose child sexual abuse trial has been postponed again until July, presumably another playback of an old program, ``if you serve yourself, you are serving Satan``. Judging from occasional murmurs, prompted reaxion from his small audience, he was preaching to children, which could explain his extremely condescending tone, turning off an adult audience except for those ripe for condescension (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN [and non]. VR, 9645 in Scandinavian language, UT Wednesday May 20 at 0505, along with Brazilian het from 9645.3 or so. Wonder if this was in Danish, or is ever in Danish, as it would be the only SWBC left in that language besides Greenland 3815. VR is not helpful in breaking down which days of the week carry which Scand language; only native speakers can tell (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
