** CANADA. 223-MCW kHz, Feb 5 at 0715 UT, dash and YYW, 1000-watt ND
beacon at Armstrong, Ontario.
http://visitnorthwestontario.com/communities/armstrong/
``Armstrong is a small, rural community 250 km north of Thunder Bay at
the end of Highway 527 and northwest of Lake Nipigon, Ontario?s
largest inland lake. It is accessible by road but also by Via Rail and

Armstrong is the gateway to Wabakimi Provincial Park.``
340-MCW kHz, Feb 5 at 0715 UT, dash and YY, 500 watt NDB at Mont Joli,
Qu?bec; I was tuned to 339-USB. It`s just NE of Rimouski on the Gasp?
peninsula, right bank of the St-Laurent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Feb 5 circa 0330, RHC Spanish is on again, tho missing

9700, some maybe just moments ago but 5040 is still on with Spanish ID
until off at 0701*. Something`s always wrong at RHC. So the final
English hour repeat gets lost. Depends on when the night shift has had
enough? And who cares, who will notice at HQ when it`s 2 am? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15700, Feb 5 at 1604, S9+30 of dead air, as CRI relay
transmitter has not been turned off by 1600. Standard remark about kWh
wastage. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 15140, Feb 5 at 1608, RHC is S9+10 but just barely modulated,
and what remains sounds distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC

** NIGERIA [and non]. 11769.92, Feb 4 at 0703, presumed VON on wrong
morning frequency instead of 7254.9, altho undermodulated, signature
askew-minus like always. There is also a het from algo closer to

Turkistan, land of ChiCom slavery and genocide against Uyghurs (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 269-MCW kHz, Feb 5 at 0705 UT, ND beacon BEX, which is 25
watts from Bloomfield, i.e. east of Brazil and west of Lebanon, in SE
Iowa. I was tuned to 267-USB where normally resides HET in Henryetta
OK, but not heard now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2071 monitoring: confirmed UT

I hope I'm doing this properly.
Seeing Glenn Hauser's report about logging XETT-1430, and he telling us they're
the only Mexican remaining on 1430, I decided to run about 850 feet of BOG
(Beverage-on-Ground) at a bearing of about 200 degrees...pointed at Mexico
City.? This report doesn't have a logging of XETT, though I did very briefly
have Spanish on that frequency fighting other stations.??
The possibility of adding the hyper-rare state of Tlaxcala to the logbook was
enough for me to go out into the farm-field in 20-degree weather and put out a
lot of wire.? After all, KZQZ St. Louis (or whatever their callsign was) is
entirely GONE.? There's almost nothing in the way to the southwest.? I hope for
an?Aurora, which didn't happen this time, and I have only three or four more
"shots" MAX. at this, because I'm in Macomb only a couple days a month in the
winter.? I primarily live in Chicago, and I'm in the final stages of "closing
out" my place in Macomb and hopefully selling it this Fall.
This was my first "real" DX session in more than seventeen years.? I last did
this seriously in December 2003 or January 2004.? I had a BOG with about the
same parameters at that time.? I'll never forget one session, I think
11/30/2003, when the dial was an insane zoo of Mexicans!? ID's on frequencies
like 610, 750 (SLP), 1250 (XESJ), 1310, 1320, 1330, 1340 (ugh, that one got
away), 1430, 1470 (2)...KIRT owning 1580...etc.? Strangest reception was
XERT-1170 with a *HOCKEY* game...in *ENGLISH*...on a Mexican "daytimer"!??
Come on, 2021 Aurora, make my day!? I'm loaded for bear!
PARAMETERS:? Kenwood R-1000.? BOG about 850 feet, oriented at 200 degrees
(toward Mexico and east Texas).? All times are EST.
630? CFCO Chatham, ON (2/2 2240, and most of the session) - country music, and
mentions of 92.9 and call letters.? This has become MUCH more common than I
remember it a generation ago.
1320? KXYZ - presumed - Houston TX (2/3, 0011) - ruling the frequency, with
Black Information Network programming.? This is a new network (born in 2020)
with a NEWS format geared to the African-American and otherwise black community.
590? XEFD? Rio Bravo, Tams., MEXICO (2/3, 0028...NEW!) - was pretty much owning
the frequency every time I checked.? Oddly I don't think that I ever logged
this during my active 1988-2003 period.? Slogan "La Mejor" used liberally
between songs
1560 KGOL - presumed? - Bellaire TX (2/3, 0036 et. al.) ruling the frequency
with some sort of Asian programming.? This is their format, right?? Congrats to
Paul Walker for recently logging this in Alaska!
1490 KPLT Paris TX (2/3, 0123...NEW!) - briefly caught their call letters, just
after Charlie Rich "Behind Closed Doors" ended.? Not sure if that was them with
the music, but any time I can pick off a new Texas graveyarder is special.?
That song can fit a number of formats, including possibly the below:
1490 KDMO Carthage MO (2/3, 0214) - Call letters after a Lew Paul and Mary Ford
song, and heard again about half an hour later with similar-vintage music.
1500 KCLF - TENTATIVE - New Roads LA (2/3, 0135, et. al.) - In and out for at
least an hour with mostly Louisiana music, ALL STYLES from R&B to jazz to rock
and roll.? I understand this is what they do...
1150 WHBY Kimberly WI (2/3, 0204) - Weather forecast (low of 10), and call
letters.? Pretty sure I heard this way in the past.
1210 KUBR - presumed - San Jan TX (2/3, 0235) - well on top with regional
Mexican music.? Didn't chase this, because it's already logged here years ago.
1350 WLOU Louisville KY (2/3, 0241) - old soul music, call letters not caught,
but did hear mention of 104.7...but how did THIS get in there, with this
antenna bearing?
Additionally, Spanish heard at least at one point on other frequencies:? 630,
660, 700, 880 and 890 (Possibly parallel:? Cuba?), 940 (presumed XEQ), 970,
1330, 1380 (suspect a US station), 1420 (suspect a US station), 1430 (XETT?),
1440, 1530 (presumed KGBT), 1600.? Conditions didn't even favor Mexico.??

weak rumble of other stations behind this.? NEW.

?? Huh? I don`t remember saying that, at least not lately. Must be
referring to this from DXLD 18-47, Nov 19, 2018. Anyhow, Frank,
nice to see you active on MWDX at least while you can Beverage.

follows (only #1 and #5 were up all four nights):
1. NNW/SSE (~337?/157?) 715 ft unterminated.
2. NNE (~17?) 1130 ft terminated.
3. NE (~45?) 1160 ft terminated.

1430 MEXICO XETT R. Tlaxcala, Tlaxcala, Tlax. OCT 5 0457 ? Poor-fair
under KYKN with Himno Estatal de Tlaxcala, followed by Mexican
national anthem. New, Tlaxcala #1, Mexico #190. (Note: This is the
only AM station left in Tlaxcala state, now that 810 XEHT has finished
migrating to FM. With 1430 XEOX having recently finished their move to
FM, XETT is suddenly a realistic target for DX?ers in western states).
(via NRC IDXD, NRC DX News Nov 26, published Nov 18, via DXLD)
Tim`s 2020 IRCA Mexican Log does show it as only XE on 1430

I hope I'm doing this properly.
Seeing Glenn Hauser's report about logging XETT-1430, and he telling us they're
the only Mexican remaining on 1430, I decided to run about 850 feet of BOG
(Beverage-on-Ground) at a bearing of about 200 degrees...pointed at Mexico
City. This report doesn't have a logging of XETT, though I did very briefly
have Spanish on that frequency fighting other stations.
The possibility of adding the hyper-rare state of Tlaxcala to the logbook was
enough for me to go out into the farm-field in 20-degree weather and put out a
lot of wire. After all, KZQZ St. Louis (or whatever their callsign was) is
entirely GONE. There's almost nothing in the way to the southwest. I hope for
an Aurora, which didn't happen this time, and I have only three or four more
"shots" MAX. at this, because I'm in Macomb only a couple days a month in the
winter. I primarily live in Chicago, and I'm in the final stages of "closing
out" my place in Macomb and hopefully selling it this Fall..
This was my first "real" DX session in more than seventeen years. I last did
this seriously in December 2003 or January 2004. I had a BOG with about the
same parameters at that time. I'll never forget one session, I think
11/30/2003, when the dial was an insane zoo of Mexicans! ID's on frequencies
like 610, 750 (SLP), 1250 (XESJ), 1310, 1320, 1330, 1340 (ugh, that one got
away), 1430, 1470 (2)...KIRT owning 1580...etc. Strangest reception was
XERT-1170 with a *HOCKEY* game...in *ENGLISH*...on a Mexican "daytimer"!
Come on, 2021 Aurora, make my day! I'm loaded for bear!
PARAMETERS: Kenwood R-1000. BOG about 850 feet, oriented at 200 degrees (toward
Mexico and east Texas). All times are EST.
630 CFCO Chatham, ON (2/2 2240, and most of the session) - country music, and
mentions of 92.9 and call letters. This has become MUCH more common than I
remember it a generation ago.
1320 KXYZ - presumed - Houston TX (2/3, 0011) - ruling the frequency, with
Black Information Network programming. This is a new network (born in 2020)
with a NEWS format geared to the African-American and otherwise black community.
590 XEFD Rio Bravo, Tams., MEXICO (2/3, 0028...NEW!) - was pretty much owning
the frequency every time I checked. Oddly I don't think that I ever logged this
during my active 1988-2003 period. Slogan "La Mejor" used liberally between
songs
1560 KGOL - presumed - Bellaire TX (2/3, 0036 et. al.) ruling the frequency
with some sort of Asian programming. This is their format, right? Congrats to
Paul Walker for recently logging this in Alaska! {KGOW -- owner is named Gow.
Yes, Vietnamese. gh}
1490 KPLT Paris TX (2/3, 0123...NEW!) - briefly caught their call letters, just
after Charlie Rich "Behind Closed Doors" ended. Not sure if that was them with
the music, but any time I can pick off a new Texas graveyarder is special. That
song can fit a number of formats, including possibly the below:
1490 KDMO Carthage MO (2/3, 0214) - Call letters after a Lew Paul and Mary Ford
song, and heard again about half an hour later with similar-vintage music.
1500 KCLF - TENTATIVE - New Roads LA (2/3, 0135, et. al.) - In and out for at
least an hour with mostly Louisiana music, ALL STYLES from R&B to jazz to rock
and roll. I understand this is what they do...
1150 WHBY Kimberly WI (2/3, 0204) - Weather forecast (low of 10), and call
letters. Pretty sure I heard this way in the past.
1210 KUBR - presumed - San Jan TX (2/3, 0235) - well on top with regional
Mexican music. Didn't chase this, because it's already logged here years ago..
1350 WLOU Louisville KY (2/3, 0241) - old soul music, call letters not caught,
but did hear mention of 104.7...but how did THIS get in there, with this
antenna bearing?
Additionally, Spanish heard at least at one point on other frequencies: 630,
660, 700, 880 and 890 (Possibly parallel: Cuba?), 940 (presumed XEQ), 970,
1330, 1380 (suspect a US station), 1420 (suspect a US station), 1430 (XETT?),
1440, 1530 (presumed KGBT), 1600. Conditions didn't even favor Mexico.
