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 with internal antenna only
or PL-880; NRD-545 with ALA-330S inside E-W or inside randomwire N-S; Nissan
stock caradio as specified; ICR-75 E-W longwire
** MEXICO. 590, Nov 3 at 1159, tropical music from SSW thru hourtop; 1203
mentions ``informativo policíaco`` apparent program title about all the crime
down there, but plays more music. 1206 finally live announcer about Reynosa, 23
grados, presumably the expected high today; 1207 timecheck for 7:07 ``en la
ciudad de Reynosa`` where they have to stay on US DST for another week, unlike
deeper Mexico. So it`s XEFD, Tamaulipas, 5/0.5 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

UNIDENTIFIED. 610+, Nov 2 at 1231 UT, het upon KCSP 610, loops SW/NE; less than
1 kHz off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [and non]. 650, Oct 28 at 1245, adstring in Spanish, finally 1247
Grupo Chávez plug, which means XETNT Los Mochis, Sinaloa, 6:47 timecheck [last
day of MDT for them], and then ``Altavoz Informa`` which is their morning news
block; vs. KGAB Cheyenne WY on day power, mutually nullable (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 650, Nov 2 at 1229, XETNT Los Mochis says ``Buenos Días, Yarderos``
and 1230 plays choral NA, odd time, but signals the re-start of their broadcast
day. 1231 rooster crows, YL says ``Amanecer Sinaloense``, then Sinaloa state
song, which names its major cities but also refers to neighboring states.
Dominant signal with no KGAB WY yet. 1235 jingles from Grupo Chávez, music, no
formal sign-on. 1237 starts `Buenos Días, Yarderos` show (Llarderos?); 1245 ads
for an óptica, a carnecería, and a centro cebollero (selling nothing but
onions?). 1250 KGAB starting to show weakly. 1252, timecheck from XETNT as 9
para las 6, confirming that Sinaloa is already back on MST = UT -7 instead of
MDT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 870, Nov 2 at 1239, no XETAR yet; still not at 1300, instead WWL
105.3 ID, but a SAH from something. 1308, now XETAR is in with usual
native-language openings, ``cuatro pueblos unidos en una sola voz``. So this
daytimer is on MST signing on a real hour later than before to keep it at 6 am
local, unfortunately losing an hour of sunrise skywave propagation, but we
still have another two months of latening sunrises, gaining half a sesquihour
by early January (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search October 28, UT:
702-WSW at 1233, two carriers beating
774-WSW at 1233
1098-W at 1238
576-, at 1235, 1241, somewhat NW but hard to peak, and it`s a bit off-frequency
to lo side, so suspect this is really something local. However, not hearing it
later during full daytime. (I am still hearing the 594+ spur of 1640-KZLS.)
