Inspired by Gert Nilssons loggings of Z86 Radio Curom during the past months, I finally found a couple of nice IDs on a recording from November 12, 2011. The email address on their web didn't work out, but a phone call to Willemstad gave a valid email address. From this a nice email confirmed my reception.

In my old EDXC Country List Curaçao belongs to Netherlands Leeward Antilles, but according to Wikipedia Curaçao got independence on October 10, 2010. This makes me assume that Curaçao also is a seperat country by EDXC terms.

A very nice email from Scott Miller confirmed my October 30, 2010 reception of KMNS:

"-Arnstein, that is most definately our Legal ID. It's amazing that you were able to pick up our 1,000 watt radio station so far away! From now on, we will make sure to also cover some Norwegian sports scores, just in case you're listening...

The metropolitan Sioux City area actually covers three states. The lagest portion of the city is in Iowa, but it also extends into South Dakota (North Sioux City) and into Nebraska (South Sioux City). Strangely, North Sioux City South Dakota, is actually west of Sioux City, Iowa. Apparently the first settlers weren't very clear with their directions... Overall, it is home to approximately 125,000 people.

Last week I examined a recording from July 19, finding an interesting signal from Brazil on 1390 kHz. The signal was good, but I heard no regular ID - just an announcement mentioning "1390". I sent a mp3 to Henrik Klemetz asking for help, and it didnt' take more than minutes until Henrik came back with the solution: the announcement was for a show named "Noite Vitoriosa".

Their web site - www.redevitoriosa.com.br - came up with a lot of contact info, and today I received an email from Paulo Azevedo, kindly confirming my reception.

This was my QSL #50 from Latin America in 2011. Thank you Paulo - and Henrik!

OAX7X Radio Juliaca, Juliaca 1290

2011-08-08T20:17:00.007+01:00

It was a tremendous pleasure hearing Radio Juliaca for the very first time on May 28, 2011. The frequency was 1289,908 and the signal was huge for a moment. Tonight I received a very nice email from Guadalupe Apaza Quispe, who kindly confirmed this excellent reception.

Radio Juliaca is the oldest radio station in town, and that's why they call themselves La Decana. The announcement I heard was like "... 1300 kilohertz en Amplitud Modulada y 90.9 en Frequencia Modulada - Radio Juliaca, La Decana". Both their web site www.radiojuliaca.com.pe and the email I received say the AM frequency is 1290 kHz, but still they announce 1300 kHz.

Juliaca is at 2823 meters above sea level, and has a population of approximately 300.000.

In the same moment that night CP107 Radio Yaguarí was heard with a great signal on 1440 kHz.
