Update on the legitimate Ensenada/Tecate stations and their not-so-legitimate Tijuana doubles:
The legitimate station XESDD-920 appears to be off. I can't tell about the other two legitimate stations XESS-1450 or XHBCE-92.1 FM as I don't hear them regularly from Chula Vista. The not-so-legitimate XESDD-1030 is still running music which I think could still be described as Mexican oldies, though I do hear some news in the mornings. The signal is currently very weak and (I would guess) undermodulated (the carrier is fairly solid but the music is barely audible). KURS-1040 is louder despite being a few miles farther away and (allegedly!) much lower power. I just noticed not-so-legitimate XESS-620 is running classic rock (last song was "I've Been Waiting for a Girl Like You") and using the slogan "Radio Fiesta" after their call-letter IDs. I believe they were still ESPN Deportes at the beginning of the week. I don't know if the current programming is a full-time format change or just a weekend program. No changes noted for XEPE-1700 or XEBCE-105.7. 73, Tim Hall Chula Vista, CA _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
