** MEXICO. 570, Dec 28 at 1258 UT, song in Spanish with low audible het, dead giveaway it`s Monterrey NL, 1300 confirmed by full ID with call letters XEBJB, street address, into news headlines. WRTH 2014 says slogan is Radio 570 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 700, Dec 28 at 1304 UT, weather, then live DJ greeting listeners and families in various colonias around Parral, and Hidalgo, dominating frequency, ranchera song ``Ay, mamá`` by YL with quite a set of pipes; then ``buenos días en XEGD, La Poderosa``, 1308 ID for 700, 90.3 and web from Hidalgo del Parral, Chihuahua. WRTH 2014 shows 5000/250 watts with that slogan, while IRCA 2012 had it as Ke Buena, 1000/200 watts. And Cantú today shows 5000/1000, also La Poderosa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DGIEST) ** MEXICO. 1190, Dec 27 at 0043 UT, a Mexican is dominating the channel on non-direxional caradio antenna, with news, 6:42 TC, federal PSAs, rumbling het from something off-frequency. Two best bets are XECT in Monterrey and XEWK in Guadalajara (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 1470, Dec 27 at 0104 on caradio, Mexican music and ID as ``La Consentida``, for which there is only one match in the 2012 IRCA Log: XEHI, Ciudad Miguel Alemán, Tamaulipas; that`s right across the Rio Bravo from Roma, Tejas. WRTH 2013, however, names XEHI ``Mi Radio 1470, Puro Cañonazo``, but has no other 1470 as Consentida. ¿What about Cantú? No Consentidas on 1470, tho I am positive that`s the slogan I heard, and yet another identity for XEHI: 1470 XEHI La Caponera Cd. Miguel Alemán, Tamps. 10,000 250 What does Caponera mean? Random House says: ``coop for fattening capons; gaol; place where one lives well free of charge`` Well, I`m sticking with XEHI = Consentida, as that`s the very active identity currently on FB: https://www.facebook.com/XEHI1470 Dixionary definition of which is over-indulged or spoilt, hardly something positive. In DXLD 13-36, Henrik Klemetz said words like consentida imply mistress (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1702, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED [non]. SW conditions from E Asia are much improved today, but not MW. Nothing to show from a 9-kHz TP carrier search 531-999 kHz at 1333-1335 January 2. I`ll have to settle for 1220 from DFW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) _______________________________________________ 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
