These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also VHF/UHF, sometimesÂutility, 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:

** MEXICO. 650, Oct 12 at 1200, XETNT, Los Mochis, Sinaloa, opening 
`Noticiero Altavoz` (loudspeaker newcast) with 6 am timecheck, 
dominant signal here, and also audible // amid QRM on 610, XEGS 
Guasave, both still on AM tho Radio 65`s FM has moved to 100.5, ex-
106.5, top of band being cleared for community/non-commercial use 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 800, Oct 12 at 1207, XEROK doing well, must be running more 
power than usual, vs easily nulled KQCV OKC. Adstring including help-
wanted for some engineer familiar with AM radio (for XEROK itself? 
apply at a street address on Insurgentes, which chex for XEROK). 
``800, bajo el cielo de Ciudad JuÃrez``; local news headlines, on 
`Calibre 800` (short for canal libre = clear channel) which seems to 
be the newscast name, on ``Radio CaÃÃn``. 1210 finally starts the news 
with 6:09 TC; 1211 mix a bit of English, ``Good morning, El Paso``; 
and ``sÃ, hay clases, no hay dÃa festivo``, no holiday for students 
even tho this is the Day of the Race. At this time you would not know 
the main format has converted to religion (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 870, Oct 12 at 1215, XETAR, La Voz de la Sierra Tarahumara, 
going from Spanish to native language, leisurely opening announcements 
including phone numbers for CDI and other government agencies, mixed 
with bits of rustic music. Good dominant signal from Guachochi, 
Chihuahua, hardly any WWL to be heard even if nulled (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
