Title: Cuba Hit With Nationwide Power Outage
Post by: Ct Yankee on September 10, 2025, 1507 UTC

Perhaps it would be simpler to announce when the lights are on.  I have been hearing RHC in the 1500 utc hour recently but nothing on 11760, nor 15140, at the moment.

Oh... On the drive home, last night, 0200 UTC, I thought that I still heard Cuba on 1620kHz, battling it out with Pensa Cola, FL's 1620AM. Being Medium Wave, they may have been on emergency generators. My Espanol totally sucks, so if they were announcing the power outage, then damned if I was able to understand that.
