>** MEXICO. 650, Jan 9 at 1416, poor signal in Spanish mentioning PAN de Sinaloa, so XETNT Los Mochis hasn`t quite faded out yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

>** MEXICO. 900, Jan 9 at 0145, Spanish dominant talking about Veracruz, so maybe XEWB? But then goes on to travel promo for CancÃn (Mexicans axually go there?), federal IFT PSA, 0146 InformÃxico (?) with espacio deportivo. Loops about N/S which fits for Vcz, but still more likely to be news/talk XEOK Monterrey NL which is usually atop anything else including super-powered(?) XEW in the DF. XEWB is listed as Top-40. Then looping further west I am getting another Spanish talker with federal PSAs, Banco de MÃxico ad, maybe Chihuahua (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

>** MEXICO [and non]. 1060+, Jan 14 at 0227, horrible rumbling het: east/west open carrier from KIJN TX, always off-frequency, vs north/south new XERDO Reynosa, Tamaulipas, even more off-frequency (some have measured it 76 Hz high). Federal PSA for Instituto Nacional Electoral (name change? used to be Instituto Federal Electoral --- IFE); 0228 full ID as ``XERDO, La Raza, 10-60, 10 mil watts de potencia``, etc. by overlapping SHVA segments.

>Right after this I find that USB tuning on the DX-398 helps to minimize the QRM on the lo side; and then I rotate again to hear a third station, from the west thru the KIJN carrier, 0230 UT ID as KXPL, El Paso, TX [continued under USA] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

(KAZ) Anmts are for 7 kW here. They also mention Matamoros and well as Reynosa in the ID. This is a move from 1450. They and KIJN and of course XEEP are easy here in IL, KXPL is much harder and only logged twice. (once recently thx to your ment that they are on at night)

>** MEXICO. 1110, Jan 11 at 0219, Spanish YL talk from E/W with KFAB nulled making a SAH of approx. 269/minute = 4.48 Hz, must be XEWR, R. Guadalupana, Ciudad JuÃrez, Chihuahua, which IRCA lists as a 500-watt daytimer; but Cantà and WRTH 2015 say 1/0.5 kW. No US SS stations around here, but there is one further Mexican, XEVS in Hermosillo, 1/0.25 kW per Cantà (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Per their website, they like many Mexicans are more than what would be considered a daytimer on our side of the border.
http://radioguadalupana.org/programacion/ They also stream. They can come thru KFAB here although one needs KVTT to not be on too late.

>** MEXICO. 1300, Jan 9 at 0152, Elvis song seguà to Beatles` ``Hey Jude``, both in English with good signal from E/W. Presumed XEP Ciudad JuÃrez, Chihuahua, surely on 38 kW day power rather than 200 watts night. The US stations around here on 1300 are talk, except Marshall MO listed as C&W and surely no such bigsig (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

(KAZ) These guys will usually ID near or somewhat after ToH as Radio Mexico Noticias and are common.
>
>** MEXICO. 1430, Jan 9 at 0154, norteÃa music from N/S up to 0200. Don`t see how it could be anything but XEWD, Ciudad Miguel AlemÃn, Tamaulipas, listed in IRCA Log as REG/NOR format, as none of the Texans or Nebraskans in NRC AM Log are Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
>
>** MEXICO. 1510, Jan 9 at 0155, from N/S, with WLAC nulled, but not much of a factor tonight, speaker in an echoey venue, then losing to music station, presumably Colorado. 0201 back up to outro talk show with 800 number, and 0201.5 FINALLY definite full ID partially copied: ``XEQI, 15-10 AM . . . Monterrey, Nuevo LeÃn . . . 10 mil watts de potencia`` . . . and some slogan, www. sites and e-mails I can`t copy,
>all by YL with reverb (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

>** MEXICO. 1560, Jan 11 at 0227, Spanish gospel huxter dominating, phone number, and Radio Viva, Ciudad JuÃrez ID in passing, 0228 fuller ID with jingle, http://radioviva.com.mx 

(KAZ) Difficult but possible here in IL as I've logged them a few times over the years. Clearly AN now. http://radioviva.mx/programacion/

Website http://www.indie1560.com/ is dead and no activity on FB since October.
>
>However, 2014 IRCA Mexican Log has XEJPV with 1 kW daytime, slogan as Indie AM 15-60, tho format REL, which really doesn`t match. WRTH 2015 and Cantà have 1560 JuÃrez as 1 kW daytimer, XEJPV, Indie. 
>
>On Oct 8 as in DXLD 14-41, in another log I mentioned that ``Radio Viva`` used to be the slogan on 1560 JuÃrez. That refers to the 2013 IRCA Log. See also DXLD 14-24 for an ambiguous article about 1560 becoming ``Indie``, but really JuÃrez? Website I heard axually forwards to http://radioviva.mx/ clearly Christian, and in the fine print abottom does show 1560 JuÃrez by this name, so apparently it`s back, or never left. Part of the 7-station group MegaRadio in CiJz which also includes 1110 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
