Kunming. And isn't it quite likely that it is either one or both model of
the modern Chinese shortwave transmitters what is in use by Cuba now?

Re: "As far as I know, only three rotable antennas have been spotted, two
at Zhejiang and one at Qiqihar."
Thales Multimedia&Broadcast had an article about the Kashi project in
their newsletter, and it featured also a photo of an ALLISS unit. Or has
this been revealed as kind of a "symbolic picture" meanwhile?
"Before the big expansion of the jamming networks, the Chinese used some
highpowered transmitters modulated with CNR-1 in narrow band FM and
sometimes with a low frequency growl added."
Audio examples of this old technology used to be available at the IBB
monitoring website, but I see that
has been updated a few months ago now.

As far as I know, only three rotable antennas have been spotted, two at
Zhejiang and one at Qiqihar. All others seen in GE images are fixed
curtains. I wonder if the "Xinjiang" site at 113 degs east in TDP is a
typo for Xingyang or is the Xinjiang-Kashi site with the Xingyang
coordiates incorrectly added? So far no HF antennas have been found by
Alan around Xingyang.
Before the big expansion of the jamming networks, the Chinese used some
highpowered transmitters modulated with CNR-1 in narrow band FM and
sometimes with a low frequency growl added. These were then converted to
normal AM. At times ordinary BC transmitters were taken off their normal
frequencies and used as jammers. This included to some extent the
Continental 100 kW transmitters.
