These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also VHF/UHF, sometimes utility, ham, which may be found in several archives without much delay, such as  
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser
 
And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

All my MW DX reports starting August 2011 are archived in this forum with open access:

All times and dates strictly UT. Rx: mostly DX-398 or PL-880 with internal antenna only; Nissan stock caradio as specified; FRG-7 with E-W longwire as specified

** MEXICO. 650, May 17 at 1125 UT, I am finally awake early enough for some summer sunrise skip from some of my favorite Mexicans, regulars an hour or two later in the winter. Here is Mexican oom-pah music from the WSW and owning the frequency, no WSM or anything else, of course XETNT, Los Mochis, Sinaloa, confirmed by ``Radio 65`` jingle at 1129, and a Sinaloa song, starting to fade and gone by 1140 recheck. 

Gaisma.com lacks a listing for Los Mochis! But interpolating between Culiacán and Obregón, sunrise should be about 1227, an hour later than our Enid SR today of 1123 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 730, May 17 at 1125 UT, hummy open carrier, altho hard to get a fix on it, probably XEHB, 50/1 kW in Chihuahua, to go with SRS still in from 650 XETNT Sinaloa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. 1030, May 20 at 0612, just as I tune by, ``y 93.9 FM, Exa FM``. WRTH, Cantú and IRCA show the only Exa on 1030 is XEMPM, 10/1 kW El Fuerte, or Los Mochis, Sinaloa, which is a hotspot for MW DX to here. Except all show its XHMPM on FM is 98.9, but I really thought they said 93.9. (Pronounced ``eksa`` -- you can never be quite sure about x`s in Mexican). Found website which confirms it`s still 98.9: http://www.exafm.com/#!/losmochis/home

I was referring to a printout of the Cantú list I saved on Feb. 19, and now on May 21, http://www.mexicoradiotv.com is ``temporarily unavailable`` says Network Solutions! Fred was reported to be about to retire and looking for someone else to take over the site. I hope this temp/un is a good rather than bad sign (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
