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

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

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. 710-, July 8 at 0601 UT, again off-frequency het to the lo side of KCMO. The pitch is hard to pin down on my keyboard, but tentatively circa F#3 below Middle C, which is 185 Hz. Choral Mexican NA is playing, which means it`s in the UT -6 zone, fitting for the WSW DF. 0605 multiverse NA finally ends, and on to ``Soy Soldado`` super-patriotic, ultra-military recitation; 0608 Chihuahua state anthem, now overcoming KCMO even with AM tuning rather than LSB. Therefore it has to be XEDP, La Ranchera de Cuauhtémoc, IRCA-listed day power of 5 kW and unknown at night or whether 24 hours. WRTH 2014 says 7 kW day, 100 watts night! XEDP is also a common catch around sunrise with much better reception, but when last heard some months ago was not audibly off-frequency.
710.0, July 9 at 0554 UT, Mexican NA is ending, fanfare and into `Soy Soldado` recitation, 0558 Chihuahua state anthem. XEDP, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, again going thru the same routine as last night but now 10 minutes earlier. AND, tonight it`s not off-frequency to approx. 709.815 making an audible het, but within subaudible-het range of KCMO; did they read my report in the meantime? But I think it has jumped off and on frequency before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 760, July 5 at 0306 UT, no WJR, but dominant signal on caradio is Mexican, ad mentioning Parral, PSAs. However, there is no 760 in Hidalgo del Parral, Chihuahua; likely the usual occupant, XEES, Antena 7-60 in Chihuahua city, tho listed by IRCA as only 500 watts at night, 1000 day. WRTH 2014, however says 10 kW fulltime, which is more like it, ``Antena Musical``. Cantú says 10/1 kW without the Musical. Take your pick (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
