destroy by air attack the microwave links on which Castro's
communication system depends. The objective is of course to
create a revolutionary situation, initially perhaps in Oriente
and Las Villas. Provinces, and then spreading to all parts of
the island.
7. Propaganda and Communications: Currently medium and
short wave broadcasting in opposition to Castro is being carried
on from seven stations in addition to Radio Swan. Antennae
modifications of the latter have increased its effective power :
in Cuba and it is believed that there is now good medium wave
reception of Swan everywhere except in Havana itself where it
can still be effectively jammed. The number of hours of broad
casting per day will be increased beginning immediately from
ahout 25 to almost 75 soon after D-Day. The cambinatign of
multiple long and short wave stations which will then be in use,
supplemented by three boats which carry broadcasting equipment
(two short wave and one medium wave) will assure heavy coverage
of all parts of the island virtually at all times. Radio programs
will avoid any reference to an invasion but will call for up-rising
and will of course announce defections and carry news of all
revolutionary action. Soon after D-Day a small radio transmitter
will be put in operation on Cuban soil.
