At 285 degrees, this is hardly aimed at Japan,' rather Honolulu and Port Moresby, PNG. If RAE were serious about reaching East Asia, they would enlist a closer relay site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, Dec 20 at 0434, this RHC is off, so no English at all. Only other RHC found on is 11760 Spanish. Non-RHCs: 4765, 5910 on; 5025 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side: ``Subsidies in Cuba: grateful fish --- The Castro 'subsidy' is like treble hook chemically sharpened for deep-sea fishing. Rafaela Cruz, La Habana 15 Dic 2023 - 19:53 CET, Treble hooks. Amazon [caption] "Gratitude," a word that shares etymological roots with "gratuitousness," has been one of the moral lines used most often and most effectively to keep Cubans sentimentally tied to Castroism. And, although this emotional blackmail is no longer wielded as effectively as in Fidel's time (a PhD in Demagoguery) the Government continues to articulate paternalistic discourse about its "efforts made to take care of the people." This, implicitly, elicits the citizenry's gratitude and its loyalty towards those supposedly self-sacrificing and disinterested leaders...`` https://diariodecuba.com/cuba/1702666385_51632.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA.

Looks like the same multi-channel lineup as before, without one-by-one checking (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Dec 20 at 2301, S9+30/40 direct, token English from SNR previewing afternews feature to be about Xmas customs, yawn; and so it was at 2314 quickcheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.005, Dec 20 at 2300, VOT not off the air, S9/+20 direct with s/on sked in English. 2346 recheck when measured, S9+20/30 into UTwente, ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, song; 2350 s/off by the badax with partial *A23* not B23 English schedule; all times and frequencies wrong but only one hour early instead of three hours late!
