While doing a bit of early morning DX with the T615, I was looking for
Nebraska on 590 at 1200 UTC. There was a Spanish speaker dominant on the
frequency which I initially presumed was a as yet ULR unlogged Rebelde,
but a quick check of 5,025 kHz indicated this was not parallel. Due to
the slop from local WREC on 600, I fired up the E100 Slider at 1204 just
in time to hear a male presenter mention Radio Nacional, then a female
mentioning San Jose, Tegucigalpa and Managua, then brief chatter between
them into a vocal. The station was fading fast, and after the vocal I
caught the male announcer mentioning buenos dias. Barely audible by 1214
and gone by 1216 leaving a mix of domestics and another Spanish speaker,
likely Mexico.
I still haven't unpacked my WTRHs, so wasn't positive what this could
be. I looked up 590 kHz on the AM-DX.com WestList, and 70 kW TIRN San
Jose is listed. A Google search shows a few DXpedition logs from the
late 90's listing this as Radio Nacional de Costa Rica. A quick check of
GeoClock showed a 1158 UTC sunrise for San Jose, so right now this
appears to be a classic case of transmitter sunrise enhancement.
