BRAZIL – 9819.32, Radio Nove de Julho, Sao Paolo, this one noted with moderate signal tho het, best in ECSS-LSB, 12/16 at 2218, OM vocalist in PP with YL chorus and orch in background. Anmts by YL at 2221 in PP, “Estamos apresentando a musica de . . . “ And then, nice musical ID at 2222, sung by YL chorus, simply “Radio Nove . . . de Julho!” Signal fading in better toward BOH. Tnx to tip from Prof. Ronda on this! (Perry, Illinois)
BOLIVIA – 6134.82, Radio Santa Cruz, interesting programming noted on Sun morning 12/16. At 0910 playing very rustic CP folkloric mx but with all anmts in indigenous vernacular language. ID easily picked out at 0912 as simply “Radio Santa Cruz”. 0915 started what seemed a radionovela, but also in non-SS indigenous lang of E Bolivia, with a hysterical woman weeping and moaning and relating her sad story. Must have signed on at approx. *0900 as nothing on the channel at 0855 check. Great big, lusty signal just pounding in, reminiscent of high-powered international broadcasters on 49 meters, back in the day, like Deutsche Welle or Radio Nederland!
