[IRCA] Station ID help requested
Good evening, At about 6:00 local time (0200 Zulu) I heard some Spanish on 1160 occasionally overpowering KSL in Utah. Program content was a mix of talk and more traditional music. At 02:26 I heard instrumentals of "Hey Jude" and "Unchained Melody", the first being played on flute. Unfortunately for me, I had no internet access while I could hear them. We had a lot of rain in the past 24 hours and didn't even have cell phone service. Then an hour later, the internet returned, but no longer heard them. I looked up XEQIN 1160 with a web browser and it took me to live feed of their program. Content is similar, but did not hear the "La Valle" ID though. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

[IRCA] loop on ground
--- Begin Message --- Loop on ground: probably not much for use as your main antenna but something you could phase against DKAZ, SuperLoop, Flag, Kaz Delta etc. for knocking down specific pests or noise. http://www.kk5jy.net/LoG/ https://forums.qrz.com/index.php?threads%2Floop-on-ground-antenna.622669%2F For most DXers it's easy enough to install temporarily for testing and it's easy to remove if it proves not useful.
