Remember the never fully explained tests from COSTA RICA around this frequency last year? Was your log on exactly 5955.0? Could have continued on in daytime only so not widely noticed. For example from 2008: (gh, DXLD)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5953.5; 1932-1936 9 August, 2008. Weak carrier audible on both the ICF-2010 and ICF-7600GR using the 200 foot longwire. No audio. A kHz below where the seemingly inactive unidentified ELCOR Costa Rican operated, so who knows (Bishop/Krueger, FTDE) (Terry L Krueger, Clearwater, Florida, USA, 27.55.83 N, 82.46.08 W, DX LISTENING DIGEST 8-091) ** COSTA RICA. 5954.13v, unidentified ELCOR transmitter, Guápiles; no trace of this for weeks here (the last log -- at least the last one I entered into the logbook -- was on April 23). Anything different to report from Costa Rica, Raúl?
