15795, Chinese talk in the clear at 1236 April 29, so AIR's Chinese
service is unjammed? No! 15795 quickly confirmed as the CNR1 jammer since
// 12040 where there's also a CNR1 echo against VOA. Not a trace of India
itself audible on 15795.

15255, CNR1 echo jammer also here, April 29 at 1238, vs VOA Chinese via
Tinang, Philippines at 11-13.
Lots of CNR1s all over the dial as jammers or non-, but at 1240 UT April
29 I start looking for Firedrakes. Only these found in the 8-19 MHz range:
12970, good at 1240
10300, good at 1241 vs ute bursts
9150, very good at 1242; unusual frequency
8400, good at 1243 UT.

CUBA Alo, Presidente, on the air this Sunday as declamations of El
Hugazo audible at quick check April 25 at 1750 UT, best on 13680, also
13750, 12010, 17750 kHz via CUBA. So what's become of RNV's own SW site
supposed to be on air by end of last year from Calabozo?? Not a word since
last October or so about progress in constructing it.

This is Radio Havana Cuba, the name of the show is Dxers Unlimited, and
today's program is on the air when our station is about to celebrate its
49th year on the air amigos.
On the 16th of April of 1961 Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz addressed
our nation on the occasion of the burial of the victims of the air attack
by B-26 bombers to the Ciudad Libertad airport in Havana.
During that speech Fidel told the world that Cuba had a new short wave
radio station that was, in fact, broadcasting his speech to the world. A
few days later on May first, we began to use the name "Radio Havana Cuba"
to identify our station.
And talking a bit more about those early days of our station, we were
running the first two transmitters while others were still been installed,
and our antennas were up using electricity company wooden poles because
the steel lattice towers had not arrived from Switzerland yet.
