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

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. July 14 at 1110 UT, I happen to awaken, and instead of immediately
turning over for another two hours, I turn on and tune in for some long-missed
sunrise skip (SRS) from México, since my sunrise is not until 1125 today. As
for SR in various Mexican cities, incredibly,
http://www.gaisma.com/en/dir/mx-country.html
includes a number of locations one has never heard of, but omits decent-sized
cities like Los Mochis, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc (and not even Chihuahua capital!);
but safe to assume their SRs are considerably later than mine. Good conditions,
with only an occasional lightning crash, not nearby. First a quick bandscan
from the bottom finds SS probable XEs on: 540, 560, 610, 640, 650, 660, 690
(two, despite KGGF), 720, 780 (under Pete 94-3, Stillwater), 790, 800 (vs
KQCV), 1030, at least. Specifically:
710, July 14 at 1112, Low German preacher about Jesus, a dead giveaway for XEDP
as logged with him many times before. Now it`s on-frequency with no het, while
I had noticed the 710-minus het in bedtime bandscan circa 0600 UT. By 1125
recheck he`s done, over to a YL DJ in Spanish, plus ``La Ranchera de
Cuauhtémoc`` jingle. This one is listed as only 100 watts at night; yeah, sure.
As previously researched, they switch between two different transmitter sites,
one of which is significantly off-frequency.
650, July 14 at 1117, Los Mochis ad at tuneby, so XETNT as expected.
790, July 14 at 1119, Spanish news about Nuevo León. One thing for sure, there
is no 790 XE in NL, but in a bunch of other states.
770, July 14 at 1126, ``Sinaloense`` state song, 1127 ID for ``Grupo Chávez
Radio, su radiodifusora local, la voz de esperanza``; 1128 TC for 5:29; ``Los
Cuarenta``, rock music. This is XEREV also in Los Mochis. The ``40`` brand has
dropped ``Principales``, which was really a cumbersome translation for ``Top``.
We should not assume that La Voz de Esperanza is a real station name now altho
they did utter that (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
