If you're an AM DXer, it's time to bid your final farewells to two Mexicali
radio stations.
At midnight Sunday night (at the end of tomorrow), XECL [990] and XED [1050]
will cease operations after 81 and 72 years of broadcasting. The reason for the
closure of the two Radiorama (Pergom) Mexicali AM stations is unclear.
XECL and XED were the third and fourth stations on the air in Mexicali, going
on the air in 1938 and 1947. They were not historically together (XECL was with
XEZF and XED with XESU and XEHG), but a Radiorama cluster split essentially
traded XECL for XEHG.
This RR cluster's other AM station is XESU-AM 790, one half of a Combo of '94.
Radiorama chose to renew both XESU and XHSU-FM/BC when the concession came up
for renewal in 2016 (Raymie Humbert, AZ, June 1, Raymie`s Mexico Beat, WTFDA
