Since many people believe the Cuban high power operation is in retaliation for
the US' support of Radio and TV Marti, they should write their congressmen and
suggest the interference might go away if Radio/TV Marti went away.


Lessee ...

Cuba was a signatory of NARBA (but later abrogated that treaty).

NARBA gave the United States 25 (count 'em) Class I-A clears, Mexco and Canada
each 6 Class I-A clears, the Bahamas one Class I-A clear (and a U.S. Class I-B
priority on that frequency), and Cuba one Class I-A clear (and a U.S. Class I-B
priority on that frequency).

All of this with no permissible foreign operations on any U.S. Class I-A clear
with the exception of 830 and 1030 to Mexico (limited to 5 kW ND, and limited
to Mexico, DF), for which the U.S. got 800 and 900 (limited to 5 kW ND, and
limited to Alaska) plus 1050 and 1220 (limited to 50 kW DA-1, protecting the
entire U.S.-Mexican border, and limited to New York City and Cleveland,
respectively).

The U.S. got many additional Class I-B clears, while Canada and Mexico got a
few Class I-B clears, whereas neither the Bahamas nor Cuba got any Class I-B
clears at all.

In view of this apparent disparity, what do you think the reaction of Castro
would, or should be?

And, all of this goes way back to 1939 ... long before Radio Marti.
