Radio jammers off for one day

PALMA SORIANO, Cuba - January 25 (Virgilio Delat, APLO / www.cubanet.org) - January 20 the residents of Palma Soriano in eastern Cuba were able to tune their radios to foreign broadcasts after the antenna the government uses to jam their signals went out of service for a day.

On that day, a Sunday, word spread from mouth to mouth that foreign broadcasts were coming in clearly and residents say they were able to tune in to Radio Martí, broadcasting from the US, Spanish National Radio, and the BBC.

Residents were able to receive the broadcasts until Monday evening, when the jamming antenna was restored to service. The antenna is located in a military installation on the road to El Cobre.
