Bolivia, 6134.845, Radio Santa Cruz, 0005-0020, At tune in noted a female in Spanish language comments. Signal was fair but very muffled making copy of details difficult. She is joined by a male at 0010 briefly, then music is hard just for a few seconds. The male continues talking. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, September 20, 2012) Bolivia, 4699.997, Radio San Miguel, 0016-0025, Noted a threshold signal here with audio heard briefly before it faded into the noise.

Bolivia, 6134.732, Radio Santa Cruz, 2310-2320, Noted a weak signal here with a male in Spanish language comments. Although the signal is weak, with a fair amount of tweeking, it can be cleaned up to be pretty clearly heard.

(Chuck Bolland, January 5, 2011) Peru, 6019.262, Radio Victoria, 2339-2350, It sounds like Victoria is not broadcasting at this time eventhough their carriere is quite strong because there is no audio being heard.

Guinea, 4900, Familia FM, (Pres), 2300-2310, Tuned in to a female in news or comments until 2305 at which time hilife type music is presented. Believe the female was using French, but can't be certain due to poor signal strength. Music and comments continue, but signal never improves. (Chuck Bolland, September 15, 2010) United Kingdom, 5940, CVC International, (pres), 2315-2335, Noted a period of possibly religious comments until 2325 when music presented.

Bolivia, 6155.12, Radio Fides, 2313-2330 Noted a male in steady Spanish language comments. Signal hasn't fade in yet, there's still plenty of daylight left here in Florida. Persons continue to converse as a female joins in with Spanish chatter. At 2318 the signal improves drastically as the front of the grayline passes over Bolivia according to GeoClock. This pattern continues as the signal push up above the noise and then drops back to nil heard just like a seesaw. Boy what fun! At 2329 the audio has improved slightly making copy much easier. (Chuck Bolland, July 15, 2009) Peru, 6195.65, Radio Cusco, 2324-2335, So far the freq is clear of any major stations and I can just hear program events from Cusco.

(Chuck Bolland, July 15, 2009) Bolivia, 6134.80, Radio Santa Cruz, 2333-2345, Noted a female in live Spanish comments followed with canned promos briefly. More comments follow from the female. At 2335 music is heard. Signal was poor. (Chuck Bolland, July 15, 2009) Although the three logs above aren't quality loggings because of poor conditions, I felt they were significant because they provide some proof that they're still active on their primary frequencies, and when the sunspots or whatever it takes to get better conditions, begin; we will know where to start our loggings search.

Bolivia, 5925.51, Emisoras Pio XII, 0145-0235 Turning in a good report on this station. Initially noted two males in conversation using the Spanish language.

(Chuck Bolland, October 16, 2008) Sao Tome, 6080, Voice of America, 0217-0220 Heard the Wednesday debate between the two candidates. This broadcast was a second or two behind the TV broadcast.
