** U S A. 9955, UT Sat Sept 21 at 0642 is // 5850 with non-BS gospel
huxter, but must be TOM: instead of RFI in Spanish it usually has been

weekends only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 660, Sept 21 at 0646 UT, unusual good signal with C&W music,
rivaling 650 WSM. I bet it`s KTNN. Yes! at 0648 ID in English as
``KTNN, Window Rock, Arizona`` and two other towns. Obviously on 50 kW
ND day pattern instead of protecting WFAN NYC as required,
possiblizing much more interesting listening than stupid sportstalk,
into the Midwest. Especially when they get to Navajo drumming and
chanting (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 800, Sept 19 from 0620, the extremely distorted signal is
certainly XEERG, Ojo de Agua, Nuevo León. After two nights of hearing
horribly distorted QRM to KQCV 800 OKC, not noted earlier UT Sept 19
during primetime, but again now at 0620, altho not as severe as
before. See previous reports under OKLAHOMA [and non].

This time I`m checking remote receivers. NOT heard in OKC, so not a
defect of KQCV itself. Not heard at Durango2 SDR. But YES, audible at
these: Querétaro; Austin TX; even Truth or Consequences NM making me
wonder if XEROK could be attempting a comeback. At 0625 am also
hearing it quite well at McAllen TX SDR in the RGV, so I stick with
that. Without KQCV or other QRM there, I can tell there are Spanish
announcements between rock tunes. At 0638, Spanish ID mentions
``92.9``. A BIG clue, so let`s take another look at listings:

mwlist: ``MEX XEERG RG La Deportiva 92.9 FM Ojo de Agua * 10/2.5
relays XHERG 92.9 MHz, ex XEDD La Tremenda``

Who cares what state it`s in? Mwlist does not. But they should, since
there are more than one Ojo de Agua in the country! Google searching
without specifying Nuevo León leads to the major one in Estado de
México. But look at this in the 2024 IRCA Mexican Log:

``800 XEERG NL Ojo de Agua 10000 2500 R-G La Deportiva 24h? SPT ORO //
XERG 690 AM, XHERG 92.9 FM, and XHFMTU 103.7 FM-HD2. ex-XEDD. Stereo.
Staying on AM per IFT. Active on AM 11/23 (logged by DXer) and
included in 8/24 IFT list. This station was purchased because of its
powerful FM license, giving the operator of XERG 690 AM an FM "rim
shot" into Monterrey``

Facebook: ``La localidad de Ojo de Agua está situado en el Municipio
de Agualeguas (en el Estado de Nuevo León). Tiene 82 habitantes. Ojo
de Agua está a 380 metros de altitud.``

So there we have both an FM frequency match and a geographical match
for XEERG near Monterrey. We do not have a format match, but it would
not be unusual for a sports station to be playing music instead in the
nightmiddle. On distorted 800, I hear another announcement break at
0642 before quitting SDR. Final check direct at 0647: less distorted
music still QRMing KQCV.

Then in the daytime at 1615 UT, I check McAllen again: and there it is
by groundwave on 800, extremely distorted talk, presumably about
sports. Non-local strength, only S5. While monitoring via McAllen
remote in the night, I did not yet know about the // on 690. But now
at 1620 there is ALSO NON-distorted sports talk mentioning Monterrey,
on 690. By 1710, no signal on 690, off? but still distorted on 800.
This is not splatter from anything on 790 or 810. The TWR Brownsville
SDR is not available. BTW when I first checked the new McAllen SDR a
few days ago, it was deaf below 1800 kHz, but not anymore. I had
previously asked if anyone else was hearing the distorted 800, but no
replies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2261)
