[IRCA] 1610-UnID Spanish Blaster

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

During early morning antenna testing at 1145 on 12-17 a mystery Spanish station calling itself "La Voz de la Communidad" pounded in at awesome strength on 1610 kHz-- which is normally a pretty sedate frequency here in western Washington state. At S9 strength for several minutes, the station featured an English-language public service message at the beginning of this MP3, followed by the Spanish "La Voz de la Communidad" ID.

Any ideas who this might be? Walt often mentions 1610-CHHA in Toronto, but Mexico also has a 5 kW station on the frequency. Either one would seem pretty unusual to manage such a potent signal on the 5 inch Mini-FSL that was being tested.
