While sitting on 710 kHz tonight (12-13 November), I had an interesting radio experience. At approximately 11:43PM CST (0543 UTC) I heard a signal fading up to readable levels with a male announcer reading what sounded like either a news bulletin or an editorial segment. He gave two "En Radio Martí" pseudo-ID's, and then the signal faded back into the mush. I'm assuming that, since the time was 12:43 EST, I was hearing the one-hour Radio Martí newscast on WAQI in Miami.
At approximately 12:01AM CST (0601 UTC) another station started fading in out of the mush with the distinctive theme music for "Radio Rebelde." Sure 'nuff, I heard a male announcer say "en Rebelde" over the music. This must have been the frequently-reported CMW La Julia outlet of Radio Rebelde. Hmmm ... Radio Martí and Radio Rebelde on the same frequency and on the same night. A clash of ideologies, don't you think? BTW - KGNC Amarillo was weaving its way through the other two stations, too! 73 & Good DX, Steve Ponder, N5WBI Houston, TX ---------------------- Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ 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
