I too have a noisy AM band on my 2007 Hyundai. And, the radio abruptly went almost deaf a few years ago. Now it is good only for strong locals. The noise is caused by the car's computer creating wide band hash right on my favorite news channel, "News radio 780" making 780khz unusable. This hash

Thanks, Glenn. I saw that Mexico shifted on October 30. So your Sunday night 11 pm anthem explains it. Thanks! Yours was the only response. Jim Renfrew On Sat, Nov 12, 2016 at 10:43 PM, Glenn Hauser via IRCA < irca@hard-core-dx.com> wrote: > ___ >

--- Begin Message --- Jim, On a Sunday night only, some stations play the NA at 11 pm local after La Hora Nacional, instead of midnight. Most of Mexico went off DST Oct 30 (like USA used to do), but the border cities force themselves to prolong it to the USA date a week later. (I`ve always won

My results were just as meager as those of Richard and Nigel, with a dreary mix of weak big gun Asians and 738-Tahiti. The latter was in and out at a fair level from 1300-1415 as propagation seemed in limbo between normal and auroral. The Japanese regulars on 594, 693, 747 and 774 came out of th
