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:

[over 291,000 views! as of March 30, 2018]
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. 790-, March 30 at 1221, world news mentioning ``Noticiero Grupo
Fórmula``, loops SW or WSW, making rumble het from the low side with other 790s
such as Arkansas which is gradually gaining. Must be XENT, La Paz, BCS tho
there is one other Fórmula, 250 watts in Guadalajara. IRCA Log 2015 had XENT as
10/0.75 kW; WRTH 2018 as 5/0.75. Only one Mexican, XEBI Ags is in the MWOffset
list, and it was exactly 790.000 in 2009y. Stalwart 650 XETNT Los Mochis was
also in from across the Gulf (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. [Re last week:] A few notes:
-The "northern Nuevo León" reference means the two municipalities that are part
of the 33 using American DST start and end dates. In Nuevo León that is Anáhuac
and Los Aldama.
http://www.excelsior.com.mx/nacional/2018/03/09/1225302
These are municipalities generally on or very near to the border, with the
notable exception of Baja California (the entire state) and Sonora (no DST
statewide).
-XERG is not migrating, correct (Raymie Humbert, AZ, March 23, WTFDA Forum via
DXLD)
** KIRITIMATI. 846, March 25 at 0617, JBA carrier from presumed R. Kiribati (at
0618, WWV reports K index of 4, G1 storms expected). Confident that this split
is not European, but I start a 9 kHz bandscan at 0619, hearing only the 531 JBA
carrier before falling asleep (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Glenn, I suggest trying around their sunset as I've observed a peak then and
some weakening later. Last night from about 0450-7 this was almost audible, but
nothing could get past awful KOA slop that I could be sure was audio. I was
often able to hold synch lock on the Perseus and the carrier was strong enough
to provide some audio as I've observed some from low band DU's with even less
signal. One issue here is that the last I read was that they s/off at 0907 or
so, so no chance to log them at my sunrise. So the chase for a new country
continues for me. 73 KAZ Barrington IL (Neil Kazaross, Perseus and DKAZ aimed
due west, March 25, ABDX yg via DXLD)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search: 774, March 28 at 1148 on the
R-75, so I then do a bandscan on the DX-398 at 1156-1204: 747-NW, 693-NW?,
666-NW, 594-NW, 567-NW, 828-NW, 846-WSW, 1098-W and nothing higher (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, March 30 at 1200: 774 first
checked as always, can`t get definite DF so probably both Australia and Japan.
Onward at 1206-1215: 747-NW, stronger and hoped to pull some audio; 702-WSW,
603-WSW, 594-NW, 567-NW, 792-WSW, 828-NW, 846-WSW, 882-?, 1098-W, 1548-? (Glenn
