** CUBA. 6100, Aug 16 at 0613 survey of RHC English frequencies: this one
is S9+30 of dead air. 6145 & 6000 are equally undermodulated, at S9+10 and
S9+20/10 respectively. 6060 is also S9+20/10 but with good modulation; and 5040
is off after 0600. Somethings are always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUATEMALA. 4055, Aug 16 at 0619, R. Verdad carrier is still on after sign-off, S9 to S9+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7255-, Aug 16 at 0611 check, VON is back on in Hausa, after AWOL 24 hours earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 15430, Aug 16 at 1342, M&W talk in Farsi? at S8-S4 with flutter as if transpolar: yes, Aoki shows Deutsche Welle, 250 kW, 335 degrees via Trincomalee, 1330-1400 in Dari (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TIBET [non]. 15523, Aug 16 at 1340, JBA carrier no doubt from Voice of Tibet via TAJIKISTAN, and a weaker fluttery JBAC on 15520 which would be the ChiCom jammer. HFCC rather on 15520 shows Iran in Urdu until 1420 from Kamalabad, but we know that site and its schedule are OFF. Aoki as of Aug 11 agrees there is no Iran on 15520 but unlists 15523 either. At 1357 recheck, now the split frequency is 15557 instead, but no sidejam (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 10000, Aug 16 at 0615, WWV is loud and clear while other 31m North American signals, i.e. WRMI are JBA. Must be some midnight Es enhancing. 5000, Aug 16 at 0616, I find WWV is still running an announcement this minute about their 25 MHz antenna in effect thru the eclipse. Aug 16 at 0618, propagation minute says SF 74, Ap 4, K 1 at 06, no storms in past 24 hours, minor G1 coming up (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
