Radio Havana Cuba 15140AM 1915 UTC 4 OCTOBER 2016 - Hurricane Coverage
« on: October 04, 2016, 2113 UTC »
Excellent reception, while at work so this is a delayed post.  Next transmission to North America is 2300z on 5040am.

1915z Arnie Corvo and another OM reporting on Hurricane and emergency preparedness.  Five hundred hams stationed in eastern Cuba by government with necessary provisions to report of storm/ensuing damage.  Magnificent report and use of the air waves.  Convo details accounts of red "Reverse Lightning" in hurricane, from mid-level clouds heading higher up in atmosphere.

2300z Hmmmmm....5040 seems not to be English anymore/tonight?  Switched to English at 2308z.

I just want to add that RHC also transmits their 2300 English language service on 11880 kHz.
