[IRCA] Help with spanish on 1030
On 1030 Kc I have a spanish station playing calipso music as well as other Carribean style music. At 2315 there was a ID given by a man with a deep voice as, "Radio National" nothing else but music. Also there is a nother spanish station that fades in and out but I think that one is Cuba. There is no KDKA or WHO. I checked my old WRTH for 2001 and f ound there is a Radio National listed for Colombia. Anybody else hearing this???

Re: [IRCA] WDEK-1170
It is very possible. BUT I was trying to be nice. The only time I hear them is at sunset, and normally they are very good about signing off at sundown. This evening they were playing a B.B. King record followed by a real funkey song with the name of Jesus in it. Call it what ever you want as for the style of music. My old ears are wore out from DXing for over 50 years and having to listen to pure crapola just to get the call letters. :) Though, I will admit, Paul, their format is not as bad as what the old WERC-960 in Birmingham, AL is now playing. - Original Message - From: "Paul B.

Re: [IRCA] Thank God for Radio
Yes, New Year's day was, please note the WAS, a great football day. We would be up very early, go downtown Dallas to see the Cotton bowl parade, then in the afternoon watch the game on TV. That was late 50's into the early 60's. [Don't like the Outback, you can't throw your peanuts on the floor. Wish the local one would move to Seattle.] Now, I never get to see the Cotton bowl.

While growing up, New Year's day was always spent getting a football overdose watching many bowl games on TV. Since I am a bit of a football nut, this was one of my favorite days. Well, today I'm watching the Outback Bowl (love the Outback - but they closed all their restaurants in Seattle so no more)... and I check the schedule to make sure I don't miss the Rose Bowl. Guess what, no Rose Bowl on network TV... even worse, no more bowl games on network TV. I have basic cable TV, so I don't get ESPN, which means I won't be able to SEE any more games today. Naturally, almost ALL the bowl games are on the RADIO and it's FREE!!!
