in the band. At 1400, went to open carrier, and I assumed would resume at
1405, but when rechecked at 1413 it was off.
However, the next day, June 6 at 1301 onwards, no FD on 14010. But on
14410 there was open carrier and FD resumed at 1304:40, still audible at
1335, // 15285 but not synchronized, 14410 running a split second behind
15285. So one wonders if 14010 was a miskeying by SOH and/or FD. However,
DARC Intruder Watch recently caught FD on several frequencies inside the
20m band, 14000, 14005, 14010, 14030, 14050, 14090, up to three at once.

I have monitored this Hainan high QRM on 14010 kHz at 0115 UT and going
beyond 0130 UT. Again noticed it on 14030 at 0218 and beyond. Both the
times, it had the parallel on 18180 kHz.

CHINA/TAIWAN Firedrake again invades the 20m hamband! June 5 at 1320
found a good signal from it on 14010, presumably against Sound of Hope,
but nothing of that audible underneath, even during the slow segment with
conch shell-sounding instrument at 1325. Firedrake was not to be found on
13970, 14410, usual spots, nor 12260 or anywhere in the low 13's, but it
was // 12040 and several others. Did not hear any ham CW near 14010, only
higher in the band. At 1400, went to open carrier, and I assumed would
resume at 1405, but when rechecked at 1413 it was off.

CUBA Cuban music test on 15460 kHz is on at 1559 UT already June 6; I
missed exactly when it came on. Anyone with DF to help locate it? Til 1859
UT, on 17660 kHz at 1910 UT too on June 6th.

15460 Lucky listeners in Europe can enjoy this wonderful music without
Dentro-Cuban jamming from 1600 to at least 1820 UT. Signal 44444. Oh how
it reminds me of my fabulous holiday in that wonderful country.
