I don't know what happened tonight Oct 15 to the RRI Galbeni English
transmission outlet from Romania on
9760 kHz at 310degr requested.
Checked in NJ, NY-USA states, on remote SDR units in Belgium and Italy...
Signal was much weaker (!),
than S=9+30dB powerhouses of Voice of Greece Avlis 9420.004 kHz,
and 9830.021 kHz out of TRT Emirler Turkey at 2200 to 2220 UT.
Even the Ascension relays of BBC 12095, 9410 kHz, 9530 kHz Akhbar Mufrika,
BSKSA Riyadh diverse on 11820.045, 11914.990, 9555even, and 9870.010 kHz,
and some CRI Kashgar outlets from western China in Portuguese, Spanish,
as well as Kashgar jamming against TWN on 9900 kHz also,
were much, much louder in power.

they repaired some gear in Tiganesti and Galbeni shortwave sites.

{CUBA. 13630 & 13770 kHz approx., on Oct 15 at 1348 UT, FM spurs out
of RHC 13700-AM, barely detectable with tell-tale F# tone but
no readable modulation; even less so around 13773, 13763, 13637,
13623, 13555 kHz, so the main peaks are plus and minus 70 kHz,
but now also elsewhere in between. Need to tighten them up!
Something's always wrong at RHC ...
