[IRCA] Not so UNID 800

800   "RCN"   Spanish language, announcing "RCN" and "RCN.org".  Heard a
few more of these IDs at 2115, too, which also mentioned "103.7" ( I
think).  A web search on "RCN.org" diverts to spam.  Now, I suppose this
must be TWR from Bonaire.  Spanish language WNNW in Lowell MA is doing
music, not talk.  The TWR web site indicates a Spanish music program at
this time, not the talk I've been hearing occasionally bubbling up.  I
guess TWR is no longer on shortwave, since the website only mentions AM and
FM broadcasts (one of which is 103.7), so no parallel possible. The website
offers live audio, but it appears that this means you can select podcasts
of the various programs, not live.

CKLW is back tonight, mixing with CJBQ. CKLW doesn't seem so strong, but I
really don't know since I rarely sit on this congested channel.  This may
be apocryphal, but I seem to remember hearing that CKLW had a good spot in
Danbury CT ratings, because the locals would stick on the channel after
WLAD signed off at sunset.

All this while preparing for a funeral tomorrow morning!
