Jim,
On a Sunday night only, some stations play the NA at 11 pm local after La Hora
Nacional, instead of midnight.
Most of Mexico went off DST Oct 30 (like USA used to do), but the border cities
force themselves to prolong it to the USA date a week later. (I`ve always
wondered how far beyond the border that extends --- city limits?)
On 940 the only border station in the Central zone is Reynosa, XERKS. However,
even there DST would be over early Sunday morning, and this was Sunday
night/early Monday.

=============
Pardon my error in the previous post about 940 It's XEQ, not XEQR!
Now I am hearing the Mexican National Anthem at 0600 UTC, after having
already heard it at 0500.
There's also a second Spanish station, and the two stations are in long
fades together of over 10 minutes. XEQ seems to be playing salsa. The
second station has more talk.
