These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also
VHF/UHF, sometimes utility, ham, which may be found in several archives
without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser
And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and
publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

All my MW DX reports starting August 2011 are archived in this forum with open
access:

All times and dates strictly UT. Rx: mostly DX-398 or PL-880 with internal
antenna only; or Sony SRF-59 as specified; Nissan stock caradio as specified;
FRG-7 with E-W longwire as specified
Last week my single post showed up more than once on some lists. I don`t know
why, and I am not doing it!
** MEXICO. 960, April 28 at 0502 UT, during KGWA Fox-hole of dead air, with its
hummy carrier nulled, the dominant inhabitant tonight is XEK, as I immediately
hear the `XEW` chimes that XEK plays as IS, 4 notes downward, probably C-G-E-C,
tho my pitch is imperfect and don`t have the keyboard handy to match them. Then
NA in choral version; 0504 UT full ID as XEK, Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, ``desde
1937``, and then playing ``Cielito Lindo``, another kind of anthem, while KGWA
blasts back on with modulation at 0505 UT. Confirmed here it was founded on 17
May 1937: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/XEK-AM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1320, April 26 at 0515 UT, dominant signal roughly from the south is
Mexican music; automated IDs between every song, 101.7 FM and something on AM,
with a variety of slogans mostly uncopiable by super-hype voice actor (SHVA)
except always ending with primary one, ``La Poderosa``; 0522 the song is in
English, ``Stand By Me``; 0531 a fuller ID mentions Coahuila, and Piedras
Negras. Of course, I figured it would be XECPN, but don`t you believe it`s on
night power of 100 watts, as in IRCA, WRTH and also CantĂș:
1320 XECPN La Poderosa + FM 101.7 Piedras Negras, Coah. 10,000 100
IRCA disagrees on day power, of 20,000 watts. Could be. Can hardly claim the
``powerful`` slogan without cheating at night! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
