The short wave reception has been much improved the last few days in contrast to the news group which seems to keep getting worse. With the improved short wave conditions I seem to notice more DRM signals on the bands. What a bunch of noise those signals are with most covering three channels. Had an amusing moment with Havana Cuba complaining about the Bush "propaganda machine." All signals beamed my way are very strong and many weak signals not beamed this way aplenty these last few days. Wish I had more time to listen. I can't recall the name of the announcer on R Havana, but there's guy there with a really smooth voice who should be narrating bedtime stories. One of the nicer voices on radio IMHO. Generally don't listen to this station unless something interesting is going on. I liked the Elian Gonzales (spelling?) thing a few years back for the official Cuban perspective. |

Last time I checked, here in the States we were still free to say what we like...and to think likewise. |

What a bunch of noise those signals are with most covering three channels. I have heard a lot of noise on 49m these last few days. Can you offer an example of a frequency that has specific DRM traffic on it? My little radio is not so good at DXing, and I'm close to the Sackville relay. As a result I tend to listen to these strong signals. They have been booming in the last few nights. Had an amusing moment with Havana Cuba complaining about the Bush "propaganda machine." Propaganda RHC may be, but many other stations I've been listening to are as guilty of stretching the limits of my credulity. Some of these stations are on distant WM and local television too, so draw your own conclusions. Every country has it's own propaganda machine. The U.S. is no different, nor should we expect it to be. The content is often different depending on the audience (i.e., global or domestic.) Even the VOA has (had?) a mandate to broadcast official American propaganda around the world. It's dangerous to listen to anything on RHC _or_ VOA without a critical ear. Anyway, the music is better on RHC. I used to listen to RHC for the music but that has been a while. Sorry, I didn't note the specific frequencies the DRM signals were on but I was getting bugged by them on the 31, 25, 19 and 16 meter bands as I was scanning them. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

Anyway, the music is better on RHC I find that for great Cuban music, R. Rebelde is about tops...but RHC is fine too. I've been trying all sorts of random-wire creativity to pick up Radio Rebelde. So far, no luck. This whole shortwave thing is a bit of a lobster trap! I thought I'd just stick my toe in with a little portatop; now I'm seriously eyeing one of the big tabletop receivers and dreaming up antenna solutions for my little backyard. |

Rebelde. So far, no luck. Clvrmnky - Where are you? Radio Rebelde is quite strong, at least here in the US. The 5025 kHz outlet puts in a spectacular signal here local evenings (California), even audible on a portable radio. With a modest additional random wire on your radio, its new 50 kW transmitter packs a wallop. You should be able to grab it without much trouble. Bruce Jensen |

In all honesty you often contribute to the problem by responding to the OT posts, particularly the political ones.

Well you are entitled to your opinion but you are wrong. I post the reason that I'm Plonking them and that it. I don't argue with them, which is the problem with many people in the group like you. I all the reasonable people would follow my example then the Trolls would leave or at the least have no effect. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
