I had a listen, and I believe it's the same two stations that I 
normally hear on 1710.  One is located in the Brockton MA area, and 
programs in French for the local Haitian community.  They ID as Radio 
Soleil International, and they have a website: 
http://www.radiosoleilinternational.com  They even have streaming, so 
you can check to see if it's // to what you're hearing, if you're 
DXing live.

The other station is programmed in Spanish, IDs as Radio Celestial, 
and is said to be in the Bronx (NYC) area.  Some more info can be 
found at:

Both stations are pirates, of course!

Lubavitcher Radio, the widely-heard Jewish pirate station on 1710 in 
Brooklyn NY, has not been heard here lately, but I haven't heard 
anything about whether they've shut down, changed frequency, or 
whatever.
