Bolivia, 3309.95, Radio Mosoj Chaski, 0937-1000, At tune in heard a male in Spanish comments briefly. After a few comments, music was presented for a couple of minutes. Following the music a female continued to talk. Signal was fading in and out at a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Honduras, 3340, HRMI (pres), 0945-1000, Noted steady popular Spanish language music at tune in. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Brazil, 5045, Radio Cultura Ondas Tropicais, (pres) 0955-1005, Noted mostly music until 0957 when a male comments in Portuguese briefly. After a few comments, back to music. On the hour, more comments. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Bolivia, 6155.20, Radio Fides, 1005-1015, At tune in, noted a female in Spanish language presenting the news. Heard some place names such as "Cina" during the news. At 1008 music is presented. At 1010 canned promos and ID. For the first few minutes of this logging, the signal was at a fair level although if had some splatter interfering with it. The signal was surprisingly audible this morning eventhough there was fading and splatter. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Bolivia, 6134.82, Radio Santa Cruz, 1011-1020, Noted a male and female in Spanish comments. Signal was very poor with splatter. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Bolivia, 6075, Radio Causachun Coca, 1015-1030, Pulling this signal in required a little "tickling". With a very weak signal, noted a male in Spanish comments here while the signal drops out periodically to nil then fades back in. One thing about this band regardless of the frequency, there's always enough splatter to interfere with the target's reception. At 1019, a female joined the conversation. The station's signal remained at a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Guam, 5765, AFN, 1032-1045, Steady news and commentary from the Radio networks(NPR), in the USA. The signal was at a fair level with some fading. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009) Watkins Johnson, HF1000 26.37N 081.05W MAGNA just updated on October 22, 2009..

Most of my usual target stations were more audible than previously. I wondered if this is a trend or just a fluke that will not occur again? Anyway, it was encouraging.
