the Radio Habana Cuba ID followed by Music.
I also heard Radio Havana last night in the wee hours of the UTC
morning, with a YL reading "news" (i.e. yabbering about The Cuban
Five) just like Arnie Coro was doing on Friday night around the same
time. She sounded like someone had an Arnie voice synthesizer and had
switched it to "female" mode. :-)
I primarily chase UTEs so I didn't log the exact time but it was on
6000.0 kHz. Didn't even note S-meter reading, but moderately strong
signal and perfectly readable with no difficulty.
I also heard a station on 7335.0 playing country music for a program
they were billing as "New Music Spotlight" with decent signal levels
but some minor fading. My understanding was that WRNO's antenna had
been destroyed by Katrina, so who's broadcasting on 7335?
Most likely WHRI (World Harvest Radio).

There used to be a SW station out of Kentucky that broadcast country
type gospel music 24/7. I don't remember their callsign. This was in
the early 2000s. I immediately thought of them when I read the above.
It could be WHRI, though. I don't follow American domestic SW all that
closely.
Cuba has occupied 6000 in the local evenings for a very long time. I
can usually get 6000 in very strong in California. Sometimes it's
strong, but very noisy. It can have so much static that understanding
what they're saying can be a challenge.
7335 was occupied 24/7 by RFPI in the late 90s before University For
Peace canned them. I wasn't aware that WRNO was still on the air as
late as 2005. I thought they had disappeared years before that. WRNO-
FM in the New Orleans metro area never went under, just changed owners
(a lot), but I thought that WRNO-SW had gone under in the 90s and the
tx sold then used for a station with another call.
