A thief takes shortwave broadcasts off the
air
HAVANA, Cuba - August 12 (Richard Roselló
/ www.cubanet.org) - Shortwave radio broadcasts
to Venezuela and Central America were interrupted
for two days this week when someone stole
aluminum insulators from transmission towers.
A source at the towers, located in San
Felipe, south of Havana, said the thief
slipped through state security and obviously
stole the insulators to sell them for the
aluminum content.
The towers also carry a signal which interrupts
reception of the U.S. government's Radio
Martí and TV Martí signals
from Florida.
"The interruption occurred on Monday
and Tuesday," said the source.
