** CUBA. 6165 & 6060, May 16 at 0603, RHC English sufficiently good on both and no buzz, while 6100 & 6000 are off, and 5040 in Spanish. Looks like the insomniac Esperantists are going to be out of luck, frequenciless at 0700 on 6100 when I am never awake to check. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13770, May 16 at 1356, the blob is back! Extremely distorted RHC Spanish with F# tone, matched on 13629; also JBA circa 13558 and 13841, i.e. about 70.5 kHz intervals from 13700-AM. Recheck at 1410 the spurs are gone, must have tweaked something as 13700 is still on while 13740, unrelated to these, has departed. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 11910, Sunday May 16 at 1731, JBA carrier direct tnx to Rick Barton tip at 1728 on WOR iog that YHWH is on NOW on 11910. Then I check the Phoenix/Surprise AZ KiwiSDR near him, but also JBA carrier. Then to Corinne, northern Utah, where reception is good! S8-S9 but occasional deep slow fades, carrier offset -10 to -11 Hz, and near 100% readable; at tune-in with `Days of Hard Life` theme so thought he was about to close, but instead opening. ``Josiah Elias`` introduces *tonight`s* lexure, at 1740 ``Christianity - Greatest Hoax Ever``. He`s *so* sure of himself, replacing one source of irrationality with another. 1803 ID again and subtitle, continues about conventional Bible being ``phony`` by the ``Christianity cult``. Pronounced ``yah-ha-VAY``. Still going at 1816 when I break for lunch of gumbo with extra okra; still on at 1836, but off by next check 1859 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
