In this part of my report, I meant to say 5950, not 5850; corrected:

As for why reception here on 5950 is so poor, Dan Elyea of WRMI replied: 
``Glenn, I think Jeff may be in Australia preparing for the upcoming HFCC 
meetings, so I'll step up to the plate. Your surmise is correct: the antenna 
used for the Cuba transmissions on 5950 kHz has a high take-off angle of 45 
degrees and a horizontal beamwidth of 90 degrees. Azimuth is 181 degrees, so 
that the footprint just nicely brackets Cuba. The main function in life for 
that antenna is to service Cuba. 73, (Dan Elyea, WRMI, Aug 19, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)``
