[HCDX] Re: [LatinMWDX] Sunday 'porta-bog' log with unident audio clip - HELP !

[aurel chiochiu <acq@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello John !

The only Latin American wich is more or less regularly reported on 970 kHz in eastern North America is Mundial Oriental from Barcelona, in the Venezuelan state of Anzoàtegui. They are part of the Mundial network wich flagship station is 550 kHz in Caracas (YVKE).

They have been heard even in Ontario, so they can make quite a distance inland when the propagation is right. I hope to get them in Montreal soon over WZAN on the car-radio. I heard someone mixing with WZAN on 970 but the reception was so bad that I didn`t stay with it to log Mundial Oriental (in the case it was them). It is very difficult to DX with a car-radio. Conditions looked auroral this evening as at 6:10 PM we had NO skywave signals at all on the car-radio when we get back from a rendez-vous, but I had home-works at physics to do and my girlfriend with wich I have a big problem to call, so I didn`t spend time alone in the car to DX (the only place where I can DX mediumwave right now).

73 and good DX,
Bogdan Alexandru Chiochiu in Pierrefonds-Montreal wich Sanyo will be repaired before the end of this month, as my mother has contacted 1 technician to fix it (she have phone numbers from 3 technicians !)

  Subject: [LatinMWDX] Sunday 'porta-bog' log with unident audio clip - HELP !


  Once again I went over  to the local park with my backpack Palstar R-30 and 
  layed out the 700 ft 'porta-bog' in a field of tall grass. I arrived about 
  9:45pm and was on the air by 10pm. Conditions towards the Caribbean initally 
  seemed pretty good. WDHP from Fredericksted, US Virgin Islands was in strong, 
  easily dominating 1620khz with CW music. Amazing for being 2,000mi away. As I tuned 
  down the band, I was hearing the usual suspects from the east coast until I 
  hit 970khz. Here, a spanish language station was way on top and I've never 
  logged any spanish on here before! It was some sort of phone in show with some 
  promos at the end. Unfortunately, I didn't catch any ID and the band started 
  closing about 10:30pm cdt, with WDHP gone now too. BY 11:00pm I was packed and 
  heading home (getting cold out!).

  I have a clip of the unknown spanish station and one of  WDHP from last 
  night, here:

  http://members.aol.com/j999w/DX

  The unknown is long, 1.3mb in Real Audio (low rate so any Real player will 
  play it) and lasts 10 minutes. WDHP is one minute long, 122kb.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  73 !
