[HCDX] Re: [SWBC] Log of possible Peruvian?



Chris
I good resource for you would be Mark Mohrman's excellent, up-to-date page on the Latin American stations
that are active (showing the most recent loggings of a station over the past year)

The page is at http://homepages.together.net/~hackmohr/     (NOTE: this link was active a week ago but I just tried it and it was not accessible - either the server is temporarily down or the location has been recently moved as it was a few months ago...)
 
I keep a copy automatically converted with a PERL script to run in the ERGO3 control software so that I can find stations very quickly....I will refer to the last copy I have from late January:
 
It does list R S..Solano on 4750.1 and does note that this has been heard recently(January 01).
0600-1130/2240-0331*  (where * was a noted signon or signoff) and that it varies (.05-.16) in frequency
 
So there is a better than average chance that you were indeed listening to this station. (based upon program content, frequency, etc you've got a tentative. if you had a better hit on the frequency  and more details you would likely have a presumed; you'll have to make the call based upon what you heard). If your SSB mode was switchable between LSB and USB?, and it was better in USB, it  more than likely indicates the carrier was higher than your selected frequency --- then next time try tuning up just a bit if your receiver has the capability of tuning in 100 or 10 hz increments.

Hi
Earlier this morning I have this  log.
4750 1110 2/10/01 Radio San Francisco Solano? Peru ? 222 R390\140 ft  longwire Hearing Spanish speaking male playing what sounds like Andes music. Possible id heard at  1110. Very weak but audible using SSB mode.Heard this for at least an hour  fairly weak ,but  audible up till the last part of the hour when it started fading out on me.
This is the only station found in my databases that  matchs but then again they can always be wrong.So I am not sure about this one.
If it is them, then this would be real nice, since they are  listed at 250 watts :)
Thanks
 Chris
