Notes: Going to try something different next scan of 31 meters with
the antenna at this time period. BBC was coming in several freqs
although none of them strong, but listenable. Zambia is a must listen,
you would think this is a first world country by just listening to the
broadcast, a lot of quality. Also just googled "cuban five", as I
figured, it was Cubans imprisoned in the US http://www.freethefive.org
Wikipedia gives a different look http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuban_Five
