I am convimced there is something on 690 along the lines of a Radio Maria. I
heard what sounded like an ID a few times last spring there, and a few
nights ago another reference to Maria, but definitely no "Radio" in front of
it. Spanish Christian, no doubt, though I've not seen one reported anywhere.
There used to be a Radio Maria in Guatemala, but I'm not sure if it's still
on the air or whether or not this is what I am hearing.
IBOC from WLW 700 doesn't exactly help the cause. Nor does my profound
inability to understand Spanish, beyond a few words here and there.
Has ANYONE heard anything at all like this?
If not, perhaps this can be a heads-up for those of you with some
patience...
Also on the topic of 690 - WELD WV seems to be behaving at night. If it's
on, signal is waaaay down here from the spring. At sunset a few nights ago
it mentioned transmitter maintenance and 690being sumulcast on FM. I am also
hearing French CBC Gravelbourg SK and El Paso TX on a regular basis. Thereis
some speculation their signals are both outa whack. I'd say 690 is the
easiest SK here, save for Yorkton 940.
