** CANADA. 346 MCW kHz, Jan 4 at 0755, dash and YXL, the only beacon
barely overcoming noise level, 500 watts from Sioux Lookout, Ontario.
Where is it? ``Sioux Lookout is a town in Northwestern Ontario,
Canada. Located approximately 350 km (220 mi) northwest of Thunder
Bay, it has a population of 5,272 people ...`` i.e. more than halfway
to Manitoba border, NE of Dryden and north of Hwy 17, roughly 50 N/92

one of the most experienced LW beacon hunters in our ndblist.groups.io

in Italy by William Buchanan, one of our group’s 10m beacon hunters..

Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 660 kHz, re my XEFZ log, from Tim Hall, IRCA Mexican Log
editor: ``Thanks for reporting this, Glenn. It just dawned on me that
the ABC Deportes format was 24h when it was on 570, so I should have
realized that the 24h schedule would probably continue when the format
moved to 660. This raises another question: since the ABC Noticias
format moved from 660 to 1310 as part of the same format shuffle, I
wonder if the 1310 ended up being 1200-0600 (as it had been on 660, at
least at some point in the past), or if 1310 might be 24h by now. I
need to check that before next year's Log comes out. 73 Tim`` (Glenn

announcements at all; perhaps as prélude to starting a week or more

skedgrid: `Victory Above Only` --- Strange name for a program; nothing about in
on the WRMI Programming page, but broad websearch finds it right away:

multi-tones; perhaps one of those experimental HF Trading outlets;
this would be a serious problem for WRNO 7505 if it happened to be on.
