** CUBA. 13650, May 11 at 2332, RadioCuba fails to broadcast CRI failing to Portuguize, rather musickize. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760, May 11 at 2333, S9+20/30 of huge windhowl and other noise; and 11880 merely deadair at S9+10/20. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, May 12 at 0630, S9+25 of deadair from RHC except for windhowl; and 9710, May 12 at 0633, S8 of dead air. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1300 kHz, May 12 at 0700 UT, ``the latest news from The Patriot``, i.e. KAKC Tulsa U4 5/1 kW. Day pattern oval N/S but with Enid right on the ``distant`` contour per radio-locator. I can`t really hear it in daytime vs noise level on the E/W longwire, weak but sufficient on caradio. Night pattern with a *very* deep notch toward Enid; protecting ND KCSF Colorado? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, Mon May 11 at 2030, accurate timesignal and Chinese S9 from REE - to North America?! Wow, how lucky can we be? I see their sked shows it once a week at 2030-2100. Trouble is, Noblejas has no antenna aiming at China; and I see it`s on all frequencies, four if they ever manage to emit and modulate them all. I suppose the best chance would be the S American beam at 230 degrees on 17715: directly off the back would be 50 degrees. Maybe worx with midnight sun, but 2030 UT is 4:30 am in Beijing and also in East Turkistan where it`s really 2:30 am pretending to be 4:30 - or long path off the front? I feel so sorry for the ChiCom (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. Re: ``11640, May 11 at 0433, S9+20/30 in Arabish. It`s R.

That is U4 2300/90 watts in Beloit KS. Last logged July 12, 2019 at 1215 UT, and part of a ``SAH survey`` at midday Sept 3, 2019, q.v. Same day & night patterns skewed westward but plenty southward.

HFCC registers this as AM 24 hours from Vatican, 100 kW, to ALL CIRAF target zones, by RDR = International Radio for Disaster Relief, i.e. a placeholder for something rarely if everly activated.
