** CUBA. Sunday June 28 at 1307, big open carrier on 12010, presumably RHC warming up for the 1400 Sunday-only Aló Presidente broadcast; regular RHC same time on 12000, this time atop Russia. Next check at 1318, 12010 was off.
But at 1418 recheck, none of the A,P frequencies were on the air; however, 13760 had separate programming from much stronger 13780 et al. This is abnormal. A,P normally shows up on 13750 Sunday mornings only. Nothing heard either on 11690, 13680 or 17750, the other three regular A,P channels. 13760 was discussing the coup in Honduras, arrest of Pres. Zelaya. Still going with that at 1446.
Did not check again until 1600, and now instead of 13760, 13750 is on with very strong signal, but not Aló, Presidente. Announcer was giving e-mail tmpides@rhc.cu asking for Hondurans to confirm they are hearing the broadcast. I am not sure of the correct spelling of that address!
Then resumed special Mesa Redonda Informativa in progress about Honduras, so now I check the other frequencies normally used for Aló, Presidente: 13750 is // 17750; an echo apart // also on 12010 and 13680. Maybe also on 11690 but buried in noise level.
Radio Habana Cuba con emisión especial para Honduras, el domingo 28 de junio alrededor de las 1600 TU, mejor en 13750, también en 17750, 13680, 12010, frecuencias habituales de Aló, Presidente cuando funciona Chávez (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. YFR test via Bonaire, 15580, June 28 at 0152 check, Harold Camping droning, only fair compared to other frequency earlier 15315 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17585 with open carrier, June 28 at 1316, then tone tests fading in and out, off at 1317* No doubt VOA Greenville warming up for the 1400-1430 broadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
