Radio Marti vs the Cuban jammer on 6030, Marti seems to be winning, slightly. I'm camped out here waiting for both of them to go QRT at 1200, hoping to catch CFVP Calgary Canada.

Yesterday the jammer never went off the air... I guess Pedro was napping.

This morning it seems to be gone as of 1426z, but too late for CFVP. Maybe tomorrow...

I'd be very interested if that one is still on the air. To my knowledge, only 6070 out of Toronto is still on shortwave.
