Only thing missing is el locutor saying the magic words, Radio Quillabamba, hi! On 1/12,14, frequent and definite OA mx selections, yipping huaynos and OM SS anmts including clear GMT-5 t/cks. Also, Quillabamba known to be currently active here per reports out of LA. (If the Cuban weren?t blaring in on this fqy, the Peruvian would probably be a pretty astounding signal.) Still need to perform some DX gymnastics to monitor this one, zero beating Rebelde carrier, passband shifting to low side and notching out as much of the Cuban as possible. Sometimes, the OA is quite well heard. Took many receptions to test RQ hypothesis and reach this conclusion. Unfortunately, cannot read a precision fqy for RQ due to Rebelde, so just calling it ?5025? for now. (Perry, Illinois) PERU ? 5120.00, Radio Ondas del Sur Oriente, Quillabamba, a regular the past week or so, with irregular s/on anytime in the 1045-1100 slot, with signal usually holding up till fade-out around 1110. For example, good open carrier noted 1040 on1/16 and programming abruptly started *1047 . Music punching thru better than anmts, but clear and frequent ID mentions by OM of ?onda corta? and ?en Radio Sur Oriente? at 1047 s/on. Avisos de la hora for GMT-5 and nice, full ID en eco at 1057. Bassy huaynos. Also noted on 1/17, 22, 23 typically taking the air approx around 1047-49. Note: beware of SS speaking utility stn also here some mornings, at same time, with two male voices in SS. But the ute sounds much crisper, and the male voices have more treble, very different sounding from the SWBCer, so fairly easy to mentally sort out from Sur Oriente . (Perry, Illinois) PERU ? 4774.95, Radio Tarma, easy to take these guys for granted, as their signals just crush all competitors on 60 meters, nearly every morning! Noted 1/21 at 0955 abruptly switching on the carrier. At 0958, nice piano, strings and flute theme, f/by opening anmts, ?Buenos dias, amigos oyentes en Radio Tarma!? Gave details of onda media, onda corta and FM and then into terrific morning program, ?Musica Folklorica Nacional? hosted by OM and YL, who talk over the music all the time with time checks, greetings, introduction to next disco. Holds up every morning past 1100, one of the last OAs to fade out. Interesting that this family station is able to achieve the level of technical superiority that it does ? hats off to the #1 shortwave signal out of Peru, today?s reigning champ! (Perry, Illinois) COLOMBIA ? 6010.12, La Voz de tu Conciencia, Puerto Lleras, big signals noted several recent mornings with nominal 1100 ?sign-on? (but actually, often just a continuation of the overnight programming; perhaps just a legal s/on process for the day ? ie, do they need to play the national anthem and formally ID, once daily, perhaps?). Hrd 1/12,13 at *1101 with long, dramatic orchestra + vocal rendition of the HJ Himno Nacional, followed by ID and into usual pgming. (Perry, Illinois) PERU ? 4984.14, Radio Voz Cristiana, Chilca, Huancayo, usual crazed preacher in SS noted 1056 on 1/12, fair to good QSA but big ruidos estaticos. (Perry, Illinois) PERU ? 4789.89, Radio Vision, Chiclayo, big signal 1/20 with La Voz de Salvacion pgm. Listened 1055-1140 and signal still holding up at that point. (Perry, Illinois) BOLIVIA ? 3310, Radio Mosoj Chaski, Cochabamba, in there early with a good signal 1/21 with YL at 0930 in indigenous lang. (Perry, Illinois) PERU ? 4747.10, Radio Huanta 2000, abrupt s/on at *1007 on 1/23 with OM speaking over OA mx riff. Same morning, Radio Logos 4810.00 with booming signal at 1105 check, nice segued OA mx selections. Enjoyed modern-sounding Peruvian theme on guitar but with folkloric instrument sicu-sicu taking melodic lead . . . very cool fusion. F/by schlocky MoR ballad. (Perry, Illinois) BOLIVIA ? 4716.70, Radio Yura, Ayllu Yura, only poor-fair signal on 1/12 at 1017 with folkloric mx by quenas and OM anmts in Aymara. Also noted same time, 1/23.
