HOME presents... SELECTED ENGLISH LANGUAGE DX\SWL\MEDIA PROGRAMS ON SHORTWAVE Plus a few selected Mailbags and other goodies! November 19, 2009 Compiled by Glenn Hauser For latest updates on WORLD OF RADIO times and other gh projects, see the WORLD OF RADIO Anomaly Alert page. Or the WOR schedule. DXing with Cumbre listings have mostly been eliminated due to imaginary WHR website schedules; any confirmed will be added later. We are still waiting! If you see some strange Havana frequencies here: we include confirmed and pervasive mixing products: reality. From early July, many English transmissions have been replaced by Spanish, temporarily due to Honduran situation? The 2030 and 2300 broadcasts often missing partially or completely. But English often appears after 0700 on 6060 or elsewhere on 49m.
