V02a was a Cuban numbers station that had replaced the original V02 in 1997. Most of its schedules were replaced by HM01 in November of 2012, and it’s now completely inactive. When it was replaced by HM01, it was still observed on the 20:00 UTC M08a schedule on Tuesday or Thursdays. After M08a went inactive in February 2019, so did V02a.
