Bolivia, 6155.24, Radio Fides, 1035-1100, With the usual weak signal, notice a female conversing with a male in Spanish. Although there was no interference, the signal was still too poor to hear what the conversation concerned. At 1046, noted canned promos or ADs. I recall that a few years ago, this station was a lot easier to hear compared to how well I can hear it today. Ofcourse I am listening from a different place with a different receiver which may be part of the problem? If I had to choose between the receiver and the place, responsible for the poor reception, I'd have to say the place is the reason. It gets very frustrating after awhile. Whenever I tune in a station with the same characteristic as this, not being able to hear what the individuals are saying, it's like listening to a song where the singer is not singing the words of the song instead he's just humming the tune. Consequently, I don't know what the song concerns. Hopefully conditions will start ! to improve next month? Radio Fides had just about disappeared by the top of the hour.
