through the two Mexicans at times, with female news, ID.
630 MÉXICO unidentified. 1200 January 2, 2012. The same one as heard with this
different and unusual version of the anthem on December 31, then at 1209 (a
small band, not the common choral version). Today, sitting on the channel just
before 1200, nothing until right at 1200 when the band anthem poked through but
immdiately lost in the mud.

1206, "Buenos días... 2 de enero...", calls ending in either U or Q. Three

Veracruz 10 kW DA power; and a coveted XECCQ (XHCCR simulcast) Cancún, Quintana
Roo at only 500 watts. Into oldie Mexican vocals from 1210,
clarinet/instrumental version of "The 5th Of September" at 1221. Obliterated by

carrier on 629.94 was present.

into news, mixing with at least two others way under. Once out of news, a spot
with 912 area code, then "News Talk Real Radio 14-40 WGIG" at 1406, into
financial advice call-in program. Heard this one for the fist time a few weeks
ago on my mid-day band scan at Anastasia State Park, St. Augustine, Florida.
1440 UNIDENTIFIED. 1356 January 2, 2012. ESPN Radio promo very weak, lost to
WGIG, Brunswick. Bad hum on the the channel, later traced to WPRD, Winter Park,
Florida when it finally was audible with Spanish programming, canned ID 1500.

underneath, extremely weak.

snow at higher elevations"), local ads for a bedding store; a pastor's church;
KnowHow2GoKY.org (state-sponsored college prep service); iHeartRadio (Clear
Channel) then "Groovin' 15-80" slogan and back into the Tom Joyner Morning Show.
Fair on peak, until lost by 1330.
6925 UNIDENTIFIED (PIRATE). 1755 January 2, 2012. Threshold on this "Faux New
