Good to know. Thanks for the info.  I surmised the Aussie info was bogus.

Shortwave Broadcast / CUBAN NUMBERS STATION

« on: March 22, 2018, 1722 UTC »

Transmitting on 11,530 KHZ at 16:59 UTC 03.22.18 (11:59 Central Daylight Time Local)  in Spanish.   Standard 5 number groups with heavy QRM between groups spaced spaced about 20 seconds apart. SINPO: 4-3-2-2-3 Transmitter sight unknown but the few indicators I could uncover suggested transmitting from Australia (?!).  Can anyone shed any light on this?   Why would a Cuban Numbers Station XMT from "Down Under"??
Thanks,
Don
