Hi,

as a variation on the standard theme of getting far-away stations,
I spent some time listening to and IDing stations from within
Brazil, hence the 'dX' (short delta-distance)

As a reference I had the clear-text version of ILG and grep, I
could get many of the stations listed, though some are either
too weak or no longer on the air. I also chanced across one
unlisted frequency,  R. Marumby on 11750 kHz.

All stations received between 13:30 and 15:50 localtime, walking
down the 25 and 31 meter band and the first part of the 49 meter
band, after which I got fed up with waiting for IDs and went on
to another hobby ;))

I live in the city of Curitiba in the south of Brazil and am using
a Sony 7600G receiver with 60 meters of wire in a loop on the grass,
coupled to a coax cable with a TV balun.

Despite that, many of the stations from Sao Paulo actually give a
stronger signal, I suspect that most of the stations in Curitiba are
on the other side of the city, while I'm nicely in the place where
the first hop of the Sao Paulo stations comes down...

Most of the stations below use power levels between 1 and 10 kW.
