A 3 stations pile-up including WKAQ in San Juan, PR with a woman talking about problemas de potencia (erection trouble) and giving an 1-800 number, Radio Monte Cristi with tropical music and WTIG in Massachussets, all this with CFRA nulled, though WTIG was so strong off the back that CFRA

[HCDX] 580...Mega, Radio Monte Cristi

Heard an ID sounding like Mega, Radio Monte Cristi, quinientos ocheta then into a bachata. Strong, but with constant shape-shift fading distortion and WTIG just underneath. WKAQ-PR has faded away. Nice, but not too exotic. This station, along with the absence of SPAIN-585 indicates

[HCDX] solar activity...weird

Current Solar Report and Forecast Solar activty was very low. No spots are visible on the solar disk. Solar activity is expected to be very low. The geomagnetic field was at quiet levels. The geomagnetic field is expected to be at quiet levels for the next three days (25-27 October).

[HCDX] ZIZ 555

At 0330-0340:- ZIZ on 555 is once again up and down, though lately moslty up with fair peaks and quite listenable (at least for an avid DXer like me)... This is not strange at all. But, in the middle of a commercial break (one was for an unexpensive party that costs about 10 bucks) the carrer

[HCDX] Propagation querry

Dear DXers, since 555 along with 895 are the only remaining PAN-AMERICAN splits, being as far-away as possible from the closed domestic NA channels, do they reach Western Canada or Oregon on occasions ? Has Patrick Martin in Seaside, OR or someone else logged ZIZ 555 or Voice of Nevis 595 ?

[HCDX] MW logs from this evening

555 ST KITTS AND NEVIS, ZIZ, Basseterre OCT 24 0304 UTC+++ - with reggae music and Caribbean-accented announcer with rhythmic chatter during the reggae segment with TALKOVER effect. Up and down, but fair-good on peaks and quite easily listenable with very slow fadings. As I write this, it has

[HCDX] Aventure FM

Warm greetings to all of you ! I'm looking for Aventure FM airchecks... How I came to know this station... Back in the late 80s, the quality of Romanian radio was full-clock jammed with awful propaganda such as the strenghts of the socialist progress when you could barely sleep at night,

[HCDX] CHEZ 106 is having transmitter power

Helllo to all of you ! While DXing CHEZ 106, Ottawa's classic rock at 103 miles from Montral, the station dropped from an excellent level to a barely listenable level... All th eother Ottawans (ex. 106.9) are still almost excellent in full stereo. Anyone is aware of what's happening with this

[HCDX] CHLN-550

Last night, feeling boored and depressed, I opened up the radio in order to change out my mind and came up into that: Venez écoutez CHLN le nouvel FM parlé de la Mauricie au 106.9 FM, a loop telling the listeners to change the QRG which was heard continuously on 550 AM... That being said, my

[HCDX] Aventure FM

Happy New Year to everyone among you !!! I know I may seem a tiny bit too strong on the passionate side of the things, but I wonder if any of you ever heard of AVENTURE FM, maybe during a trip to Paris circa 1987-1988-1989... They were one of the first French radio stations to broadcast
