Some months ago, I heard a very weak Spanish transmission on 5984.6 kHz. There
was a news bulletin with items from Guatemala and Mexico. I thought this might
be XERMX, so I did get a little excited. As it was in the middle of the night, I
put on mycassette recorder and went to bed again. When I replayed the tape the
next day, I heard about three minutes of silence just before the half hour,
followed by a clear Radio Prague ID. I'm still uncertain if this was an internal
problem in my RX or a spurious transmission from Prague. Anyway, since then I
have been a little sceptical about all those XERMX loggings. But on the other
hand, if somebody states to have heard an XERMX ID, who am I to contradict ?
73's,
Michiel.
