[HCDX] New CRI test via Cuba(?)

["Glenn Hauser" <wghauser@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tuning around 16m on Jan 25 at 1525 I came upon CRI in English on 17720. 
Program about the so-called Spring Festival, which relates to Chinese New 
Year, how it is celebrated in different regions. Signal was quite strong and 
steady, and broad, but somewhat undermodulated, lo-fi, with occasional 
breaks, and continuous backgroud noise. All symptoms typical of Cuban relays 
on lower frequencies, but never heard here before. So I strongly suspect 
this is another test via Cuba. Naturally, nothing was said about his or any 
other specific frequency at closing 1558* Reception here was much better 
than on the direct 7405, which was fading out by then. Did not check the 
following day. RHC certainly has spare transmitter capacity at this hour.
