"Rio" gave Cuba Class As on the following regional channels: 550,  
570, 580, 590, 600, 620, 630, 790 and 910, and additional Class As on  
Canadian, Mexican and United States clear channels.

Most of Cuba's Class As are notified with powers which exceed 50 kW.  
One, not on a regional channel, is notified with 700 kW.

The Cuban Class A on 570 is notified with 70 kW into a 83 degree  
radiator with an efficiency of 311 mV/m/kW at 1 km.
