Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] Re KSAZ DX Test

[Stephen Airy <pianoplayer88key@xxxxxxxxx>]

So far it's on top of the channel here in El Cajon, CA.  There's traces of XEHO and KMJ under it, but mostly due to SAH.

Signal is fairly good - about as strong with the Select-A-Tenna and my Tecsun PL-606 as my ferrite-bar-only daytime reception of the likes of XESURF, KFI, KBRT, XEKAM, XESDD, KURS, KNX, XEPRS, XEAZ/XECAL (don't know which their call is), XEC, XEXX, XEUT (daytime) and XEPE, but with a higher noise floor (more like my barefoot daytime reception quality of KLAC, KSPN, KABC, KLAA, KHJ, KCEO, XEKT or XEBG.

Haven't heard any code / tones, but then I've only been in the other room (where the radio is away from the computer) checking a few times since the test started.  Just went in there and heard a fairly clear TOH ID (except for one or two letters of the English call that were partially blocked by the rapid fade of a SAH).

I'm hearing definite Spanish language Mexican style music, coming and going,
fairly decent from 0811-0817 utc but no talk or anything else to ID what I'm
hearing.  It could be XEMU for all I know as I've heard them here before
too, but during auroral conditions.  Summer-like static seems to be the
biggest obstacle for me tonight.
