Stan, Hmm…my first guess would be the pirate station in Baton Rogue, LA that gets out very well at night. It’s Spanish language, and they rarely identify. But a daytime reception over that distance would be unusual.
Maybe a Spanish language pirate from NYC? I remember there was one in Brooklyn a few years back. 73, Les Rayburn, N1LF 121 Mayfair Park Maylene, AL 35114 EM63nf Member WTFDA, IRCA, NRC.
