Another huge sporadic E FM DX opening, July 24/25 UT, I have not quite finished researching and compiling, at 2135-2317, 0010-0114 from at least PA, OH, NY, NJ, WV, DC, IN, QC, ON, GA, FL. And another one July 25 at 1523-1530 from AL+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Re: "1160 kHz, July 24 at 0611 UT, surprised to hear something in Spanish instead of KSL, then KSL resurges under. Vs IBOC noise peaking 1157 from KOTV Tulsa, but also some with USB tuning. IBOC on 1163 would come from 1150, but nothing known there with it, nor any match heard on 1137. As for the SS, not many choices, unless something have changed. Per IRCA Mexican Log, XEQIN in BCN, day power 10 kW which I would not expect here; CP for a station in Guanajuato, XECSEG; in USA, per NRC AM Log, WEWC near Jaxonvil FL, ditto like XEQIN; and most likely, KCTO Cleveland MO, R.

More common than any of these at my DXpeditions is HJOC Bogotá, last known to be operating as Su Presencia Radio which would be religious. This station appears to have been leased to several different organizations, mostly religious, over the last decade.
