I also heard Radio Havana last night in the wee hours of the UTC

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? Their
website doesn't seem to have been updated since August 2006. Did WRNO
get a new antenna or what? I didn't stick around long enough to hear
an ID because by this time I was finding it hard to stay awake.

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.

Really? Where was this station located? How could this persist for
any length of time on top of CHU in view of international agreements
and treaties?

The frequency is wrong, RFPI was somewhat higher in freqency (actually
I seem to recall there may have been a number of frequencies somewhat
above the 40metre ham band, since I think they used different
frequencies for SSB and AM).

The transmitter was down in Costa Rica.

Of course, there was talk earlier this year that CHU would have
to move or even shut down (if the cost of a frequency move was
too prohibitive) since it uses a frequency allocated to shortwave
broadcast, while time stations are classified as something else.
I can't remember how that was resolved.

Other stations have used 7335 over the years, so it's nothing new. As for Radio
for Peace International (Costa Rica), I don't recall them using 7335, however
they did use 7385. WRNO made use of 7355 many years ago.

You're right, it WAS 7385. Duh! But it's been so LONG since RFPI was
on air, at least 7 or 8 years, and my memory has always been terrible.
I never paid a whole lot of attention to RFPI, anyway. But apparently
they had a small but loyal band of listeners, as they discovered when
the standoff with the university came about and they were locked in
the studio for several months. People showed up to pass cans of food
through the fence.

Didn't they go on-line after that whole debacle was over? Maybe they're still on.
Like you, I never paid a lot of attention to them.

TV 'type' 300 Ohm to 75 Ohm Matching Transformer
RG6 Coax Cable Feed-in-Line about 25 Feet Long

? Why ? Two End-to-End "Linear" Horizontal Wires ?
MT:============------------------------------o
24 Feet Twin Lead and 39 Feet Litz Wire
.
* The 24 Feet of 300 Ohm Twin Lead is connected
across the 300 Ohm Side of the Matching Transformer.
* The 39 Feet of Litz Wire [ 50-Strands of # 41 AWG ]
is connected to one side of the Twin Lead. - Note the
other side of the Twin Lead is not connected at the
Far-End it Floats in Parallel.
* The Total Length is 63 Feet for the Longer
* Note the Shorter Wire is 24 Feet and it's Far-End
is not 'connected; and this "other' Side of the Twin
Lead Floats in Parallel to the Longer Side.
.
Sort of : Acts like One Wire -and- Acts like Three Wires :
* 63 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 75m Shortwave Band ~ 3.9 Mhz
* 39 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 49m Shortwave Band ~ 5.9 Mhz
* 24 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 31m Shortwave Band ~ 9.4 Mhz

Radio High Frequency's Standard "QSL" Information

My Radio/Receiver : Icom IC-R75 (R-75) with Kiwa Mods
Using an external RCA 4" Full Range Mini-Speaker [5" Cube]
.
This Week's 'new' Shortwave Listening (SWL) Antenna :
Linear Two-Element Horizontal Wire Antenna 63 Feet Long
Laid-Out : South-East to North-West (Far End) from the
Back of he Roof of the House to the Backyard
TV 'type' 300 Ohm to 75 Ohm Matching Transformer
RG6 Coax Cable Feed-in-Line about 25 Feet Long
- - - a la John Doty
.
? Why ? Two End-to-End "Linear" Horizontal Wires ?
MT:============------------------------------o
24 Feet Twin Lead and 39 Feet Litz Wire
.
* The 24 Feet of 300 Ohm Twin Lead is connected
across the 300 Ohm Side of the Matching Transformer.
* The 39 Feet of Litz Wire [ 50-Strands of # 41 AWG ]
is connected to one side of the Twin Lead. - Note the
other side of the Twin Lead is not connected at the
Far-End it Floats in Parallel.
* The Total Length is 63 Feet for the Longer
* Note the Shorter Wire is 24 Feet and it's Far-End
is not 'connected; and this "other' Side of the Twin
Lead Floats in Parallel to the Longer Side.
.
Sort of : Acts like One Wire -and- Acts like Three Wires :
* 63 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 75m Shortwave Band ~ 3.9 Mhz
* 39 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 49m Shortwave Band ~ 5.9 Mhz
* 24 Feet ~ 1/4 WL for 31m Shortwave Band ~ 9.4 Mhz
Might call it an End-Fed-Windom Antenna . . . . .

Remember 55.5% of Shortwave Radio Listening (SWL)
is the Shortwave Antenna =http://tinyurl.com/ogvcf
