** CUBA. Esperanto got lost from RHC, Sunday Dec 13 at 1503 when 11760 was in regular RHC Spanish instead, // 11690, 11730, 11800 about an award-winning woman artist (writer?) of some sort, Lucia María ---, and playing an archival interview with her from the early 90s. Might have started later, but could not keep listening.
Rechecked at 0020 UT Monday Dec 14 when Esperanto is also on one version of RHC schedule, altho ambiguous whether UT Sunday or Monday, on 13790, and could hear it weakly and on fadeups verify it was indeed in Esperanto, with its peculiar intonation. see also VENEZUELA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 4750, RRI Makassar, Dec 13 at 1351 with excited talk, thought maybe sports play-by-play tho a little late in evening for that; but 1352 changed to vocal music, 1353 mentioned Radio Republik Indonesia, Jakarta, so apparently a network program. Besides the co-channel QRM under, presumably China but maybe Bangladesh, there was also some hum on the carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 11785, BuzzSKSA, 1459 Dec 13 immediately audible once WHRI Hmong Lao Radio cut carrier, while WHRI was so strong before that not a trace of buzz. At 1505, 15435 with even bigger buzz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also USA [non] AWR
** TUNISIA. Dec 13 I sat on RTT, 7275 from 0620 or so with its usual good Arab music, to see exactly when it would go off the air: 0627:30* after fading down the music, so at least there is a little finesse involved; continued on // 7335 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15550-USB, another day with no WJHR heard, Dec 13 at 1505 and 1720 chex. Perhaps we`ll leave it at that until it be heard again (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. Shortly after WHRI cut carrier on 11785 at 1459 Dec 13, audiblizing Saudi buzz, another carrier came on with AWR IS, ID opening in English with Turkish to follow. Except this was on 11780; I must have been tuned slightly low from 11785 when it did not matter on WHRI`s super-signal. It`s 1500-1530 via AUSTRIA, I expect the Saudi Buzz was no help in the target area; where strong it probably spread way beyond 10 kHz bandwidth as 15435 does (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. El Hugazo must have been taking the day off; no sign of ``Alo, Presidente`` via CUBA, Sunday Dec 13 when main frequency 13750 was checked at 1545, 1715; nor on 12010, tho 11690 was running as usual with regular RHC at 1715 // 11730, 11760, 11800. Hmmm, why do they need so many // frequencies in a single band? There are also four at once much of the time on 6 and 13 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
