I'm pretty sure WAMI is running southern gospel in house, no satelitte

night, and just like Willis, WBBM and Cuba were too
strong to pull anything else out. At times, I thought
I heard CW and/or music, but could not clearly

Good Morning:
Listened from 1405-1501.
153 Russia, 1418 very weak with music.
279 Russia 1448 very weak with music.
594 Japan, JOAK 1423 very weak 1621. 1623 fair with Japanese play.
657 PDR Korea, 1452 weak with woman in Korean.
This morning's conditions weren't all that exciting. I tuned around
1340-1350 1405-1420 and again around 1500, and heard a few TPs, none
particularly well.

No, that`s about a particular program, which looks very interesting, so they
speak Latin in DF too --- ``Take advantage of the night``. It seems Radio UNAM
has reworked its website so the old URL no longer works. Now the home page is

Far as I know -- and please correct me with specifics
because I would need Cuba on 780 - there is no Cuban

the name of Radio Coro. And here, I think, is the root
of the confusion. Despite the mutual sympathies

Did not hear any definite station ID, although there
was some spoken Spanish right when WBBM was saying
something, so could not get clear copy.
I haven't transfered my audio clip into MP3 yet, but
if you wouldn't mind listening to it, I would
certainly appreciate your experience. I
Hi Joe, I am not a Spanish linguist, but I am sure others can help.
Anyway, Coro is a fairly frequent IDer. If you have a clip, I can post
it for you on DX Clip Joint so that others can listen to it also.

Yes, if you have a audio clip, please send it to me, I can, depending upon
antenna commonly hear either XEMF or Coro thru WBBM from my WI place. In
general the further west one goes from eastern N.Am into central..the easier
XEMF becomes and the harder Coro becomes.
Everyone is reporting XEMF
If 780 is not occupied by WBBM, ZBVI is usually there for me here on the Ga.
coast.

I checked the tape once again and ran it through more EQ and I found I
heard morse code again at 0431 EST, not as strong at 0411, but it was
there. Twice I can catch it. Also threshold code at 0413, 0416, 0418,
0420, 0424, and 0443, but those are all questionable,being so weak.

Hopefully you can pick out some of the same from some of the west coast

It would be great if we have 100% confirmation that NE Maine made it to the
