[IRCA] 1450 kHz UNID

["Stephen Ponder" <n5wbi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Listening on my GE SR-I last night (Mon Sep 18 @ 9:58 PM CDT)
I heard a fairly strong signal on 1450 kHz.  Since this is a
graveyard channel, I stayed on frequency for just under an hour.
I heard numerous "Radio 14-50" ID's by a male announcer and
time checks (i.e., "Diez Veinte-y-Seis") by a female announcer.
Around 10:21 PM, the splatter on frequency began to totally
cover the station's signal, so I employed my Radio West
Shotgun Loop, not to boost the station's signal, but to act
as a "pseudo-filter" to de-tune some of the splatter.  Worked
okay for a while, but by 10:54 PM, the station had totally
gone under.

After sorting through numerous station lists, I suspect I
had XERDO "La Radio 14-50" out of Matamoros, Tamaulipas.
The SR-I was "aimed" in that general direction.

Unfortunately, I did not hear any clear call-letter ID's.
The spots I heard were only in bits and pieces, so nothing
verifiable there, either.

I did hear 3 English songs - "Yesterday" by the Beatles
at 9:58 PM, "I'll Stand by You" by a female singer at 10:23 PM,
and "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton at 10:53 PM.

Have I told you lately how much I enjoy my GE SR-I??  :0)

73 & GREAT DX!
