R. Havana Cuba missing on 6mhz
« on: August 14, 2024, 0226 UTC »
I've noticed for the last few weeks now that RHC hasn't been on 6mhz. Their audio has long been barely readable but they almost always had a great signal.

For the first time in several weeks I have them right now on 6 MHz, but only a carrier. No real modulation tonight.

Gone as of 0615 UTC.

Songs are identified with Shazam if needed. I usually use KiwiSDR receivers. Reception from my QTH is using a Hermes Lite 2 with a 40 meter band Inverted V at 40 feet.
