*** Monday evening edition:
*** Recording of "La Cariñosa", Cadena Democrácia (Bjorn Malm)
*** Recording of "Radio Democrácia", Cadena Democrácia (Bjorn Malm)

"Cadena Democrácia" here in Quito has been transmitting many years on mediumwave 1280 kHz. The 1st of August this year they moved to 920 kHz. The station has very good audio quality and their "Genial FM" has the best sound among the FM stations in Quito.

The station has 2 different IDs. On their talk programs, news and sports the ID is "Radio(Cadena) Democrácia" or "Cadena Democrácia". On music programs with or without DJ the ID is "La Cariñosa".

Quito has a very advancded system of "electrical" buses called "Trole Bus". At least 2-3 times every week I take the "Trole" and 30 minutes later I´m walking araound in the center of the town "Centro Histórico" with many, many old and beautiful buildings. The two photos are from this "Centro Histórico" and later on I will have more pictures from this part of Quito.

*** Recording of Radio La Crónica de Lima 9515 Khz (Daniel Camporini)
*** Comments from Daniel Camporini

Our friend from Buenos Aires, Argentina Daniel Camporini has sent me another recording of a station you can not find on shortwave now adays: Radio La Crónica de Lima 9515 Khz. I have never logged the station so it is a pleasure having Daniel on this ID-page. The recording is from year 1970. Thanks Daniel!

Without your own recordings of LA stations this ID page is nothing! 73s Bjorn Malm

Daniel Camporini: "De las ya desaparecidas emisoras peruanas. OAX4J 9515 Khz Radio La Crónica de Lima. Esta era una emisora que llegaba con bastante claridad alla por 1970 (que es el año de esta grabación) en la banda de 31 metros y segun el membrete de su carta su potencia era de 5 Kw, en la onda media operaba en los OAX4I 1320 Khz con 10 Kw.

La importancia de una pagina web no la da su belleza, sino su contenido Bjorn, al menos asi opino yo. Un fuerte abrazo y muchos 73's para todos los amigos!!!! ".

*** Recording of "new" Radio Reloj, Medellín 830 kHz (Bjorn Malm)

After reading information from Klemetz on the (excellent) mailinglist "Conexión Digital" about changes on 830 kHz I checked the frequency - I made a recording of new "Radio Reloj", Medellín - before "LV de Antioquia", Medellín.

Henrik Klemetz has sent me a 30 year old recording with "LV de Antioquia"-ID and comments regarding what is happening on 830 kHz. Thamk you very much Henrik - 30 years old recording but with very good sound quality!

Henrik Klemetz:
"La Voz de Antioquia is a slogan not to be heard again, says a newspaper report from Medellín. Here is an almost 30-year-old recording of an intro to a sports program on La Voz de Antioquia. At this time Antonio Pardo García, present-day Network Program Manager, was in charge of sports. There is also a plug for Chocolate Lúker, chocolate sold in bars, that antioqueños take in liquid form for breakfast together with their corn cakes (arepas), beans and bacon. I recorded this portion on 750 kHz from where they later moved to 830. In the meantime, 830 had been housing Radio Visión and Radio Deportes. Radio Visión was once an independent operation and active also on sw 6105 where it was well heard in Europe /Henrik".

*** unID probably Peru on 5119.51 kHz

Unidentified LA probably Peru

Friday evening beetween 0220 - 0300 UTC I listened to a LA spanishspeaking station, probably Peru, on 5119.51 kHz. Radio La Hora, Cusco on 4855 kHz is known as a "spur" station. I have logged these spurs on 5062.35 and 4960.45 kHz but I have never heard a spur from Radio La Hora in the evening, just mornings and never with this strength. Further more it does not sounds like Radio La Hora.

Good sound quality but after 0225 something happened to the transmitter/studio and it was very difficult to hear what the male DJ was saying. Close down with ID and 3 frequencys at 0300 UTC: 94.5, 1400 and a frequency in the 60 meter bnd. Is it "La Hora", is it Ondas del Suroriente or is it.....? Listen to my recording and tell me your opinion!

*** Recording of unID LA on 5062.3 made by Rogildo F. Aragão, Bolivia
*** Mail from Rafael Rodriguez, Colombia via Conexión Digital


Rogildo F. Aragão, Quillacollo(Bolivia) has in his QTH the same unID LA as I have here in Quito(see 19/7 morning edition). Rogildo has sent me his recording from this monday morning. When I listened this morning they were talking much about schools, education and so on. Anyone knows if teachers in Peru are on strike? If so, where in Peru?

I have also received an email from Rafael Rodriguez, Colombia.
73s Bjorn

Rogildo F. Aragão: "Malm, Retiro mi email anterior. Esta mañana 1050UTC, escuche con señal regular en 5062.3 una Radio con transmision en español, locutora entrevista algun representante publico o comunitario. Hablaran comunidad Huancapamba?, Quillomapao y tambien del departamento de Cuzco, espere una ID, pero a las 1057 el transmisor fue apagado. Seguire escuchando esta noche y mañana, buscado algo que pueda tener la ID. 73, QRV"

Bjorn: Thanks Rogildo for recording and comments. I just have the station in the mornings and with fading. I will try again tomorrow.

Rafael Rodriguez via Conexión Digital: "Hola Colega Malm! Como se alcanza a escuchar en el audio, Radio Morena el proximo sabado 24 de julio estara celebrando su 9o aniversario y anuncia una espectacular serie de eventos en vivio desde su Radioteatro. Esta es una emisora que regularmente llega hasta mi QTH, y aunque no me ha confirmado, el colega Yimber Gavira desde Cali me informo haber escuchado la lectura de mi carta al aire. De otro lado el sabado en la noche tuve una buena apertura a emisoras del Ecuador, le pido el favor de confirmarme si el QTH de Radio El Sol que figura en el WRTH 2004 es correcta??"

Bjorn: Gracias Rafael. Supongo que me hables sobre HCCE1 R. El Sol, Quito. Si, QTH es Quito y la dirección en WRTH es la dirección yo obtuve cuando hace un año por WRTH hablé con todas las emisoras Quiteñas. Radio El Sol tiene casi siempre una programación de deportes/fútbol. Radio Morena es la emisora más fuerte de las emisoras de Guayaquil aqui en Quito. Además HCXY1 R. Nal. del Ecuador, Quito no está en el aire siempre, algo que permite Morena ocupar la frecuencia.

*** Monday morning edition
*** New and better recording of unID LA on 5062.34 kHz
*** Comments from Daniel Camporoni
*** E-mail from Ted Sloan ( GI4AHP )


Better signal this Monday morning from my unID LA on 5062.34 kHz. Rogildo Aragão, Bolivia, is thinking of South Ecuador or North Peru and Christer Brunstroms, Sweden, guess is Peru. My own guess after listening to the station this morning is Peru.

I have received two mails from Ted Sloan and Daniel Camporoni.
73s Bjorn

Daniel Camporini: "Hola Bojrn, lamento haberme equivocado con el correo electronico de Radio Illimani, el correcto es: illimani@comunica.gov.bo Ademas la emisora me comento que ha incrementado la potencia de sus transmisores de onda media, corta y frecuencia modulada, pero sin indicarme cual es la nueva potencia de los mismos. Su aniversario 71 se cumplio el pasado 15 de julio. El incremento de potencia en los 6025 Khz. se nota pues la señal es clara y estable durante toda la noche y no la interfieren sus canales adyacentes como Radio Marti que aqui es potente. Un abrazo y nuevamente mis disculpas. 73's".

Bjorn: Thanks Daniel. I have sent an email to Radio Illimani using the adress in your mail but so far I have not received any answer.

Ted Sloan: "Bjorn, thank you for the superb audio clips of LA radio stations. It was wonderful to hear them with such clarity. I have long since stopped Tropical Band DX-ing but often yearn to take up the hobby again. My last time was in 1971. I then moved house, a young family came along and I chose the easier route of ham radio !! DX-ing is still in my heart but at 66 years of age I do not think I will be going back. I still have the QSLs and ( I think ) the pennants to remind me of very happy days. Enjoy your wonderful hobby. Ted Sloan (I4AHP) ex-member of SWB ( Goteborg - Red.: Gote Johannsen )".

Bjorn: hanks Ted for very nice mail. What I´m hoping is that this ID-page will inspire you to be a "reactivated" DXer and others to be new, active DXers. I´m enjoying this hobby even more now working with my "ID page".

This morning Sunday I had an unID station on 5062.34 kHz with talk/OM in quichua(?) and music. . The signal was very weak with interference from thunderstorms. I´m not sure but perhaps the DJ is talking about the town of "Loja". Radio Progreso, Loja(Ecuador) has been inactive, as far as I know, for many years(heard on 5060-5061 kHz). Listen to my recording and tell me your opinion. Of course I will try again this night and monday morning.

Daniel Camporoni regarding my recording of Radio Illimani(see 15/7):

Daniel: "Les informo que Radio Illimani esta festejando un nuevo aniversario. La emisora se recepciona muy bien en Buenos Aires, casi sin interferencias en los 6025 Khz.. Por la noche esta transmitiendo los partidos de la Copa America desde el Perú, le he enviado dos informes de recepción con estos datos via mail y en respuesta los amigos de Illimani me enviaron muy buenos sonidos con sus identificaciones y jingles que emplean en la actualidad. Relamente los colegas bolivianos son muy gentiles. (illimani@comunicando.gov-bo)".

Bjorn: Thanks Daniel! The adress must be wrong, it does not work. I have changed "-bo" to ".bo". Thanks for the last recording you sent me. I will soon use your wonderful soundclip.

Henrik Klemetz regarding my recording of Radio Libertad(see 15/7):
Henrik Klemetz: "ID: "Hoy, hoy martes, ¿Cómo escuchas Radio Libertad?" It´s also my opinion that the ads are from Chiclayo. On your first recording from 9/7 you can listen to this nice song(huayno):(you can find this song-text in edition 26/7 2004/Bjorn)

Bjorn: Thanks Henrik! I´m trying every morning to get the final ID but it´s very difficult, weak signal etc.



*** Thursday morning edition:
*** Recording of Radio Illimani
*** New recording of Radio Libertad, unknown QTH

Amigos DXistas! I hope you do not mind sometimes listening to "DX" signals: narrow bandwith, weak signal, interference from other stations, thunderstorms and electrical noise. This is the "normal" life for a dedicated DXer - it´s much more thrilling going for the weak signals and not for the super-powers. So this time 2 audioclips with some "problems" but in my next edition of "Voces de América Latina" you can listen to some better recordings, it´s promise!

Radio Illimani says in a letter to the swedish DXer Jan Edh that they apreciate recordings from their transmissions on 6025 kHz. Yesterday morning wednesday I made a recording of Radio Illimani and of course I will inform the station. The signail is fair to good but suffers from heavy intrference from both sides: 6030 Radio Martí and 6020 Radio Victoria.

My unID Peruvian on 1219.92 kHz (see 9/7) "Radio Libertad" with unknown QTH is perhaps located in in Chiclayo, Lambayeque. On this new recording you can hear ads from the town of "Chiclayo". Could be new name for listed OCX1X R. Cadena Nor-Oriental, Chiclayo.

1219.92 (no audioclip) RCN, unknown QTH(Colombia).
On exactly thr same split is also this RCN station.

This wednesday morning Radio Municipal was coming in with good strenght so I made a recording for Señor Rojas en Radio Municipal. No IDs for "Radio Municipal" but at the end of the recording you can hear ads for "Televisión Municipal Canal 4".

There is no "Radio Perú" listed on 1420 kHz and on this recording you can hear the DJ with ID "Radio Unión 1420 AM(Apurímac/info Klemetz) ". Unión is listed on 880 kHz. Anyone knows what is happening t Radio Unión?

3155.31 (no audioclip) unID Perú
Very weak signal so I just know it is a Peruvian.

3360.00 (no audioclip) unID LA Spanish.
Very weak signal, once the male DJ was talking about "Santa Monica".

6535.06 (No audioclip) RD Huancabamba, Huancabamba(Peru)
The ID has been for a long time "La Poderosa" but some days ago I heard their old ID "RD Huancabamba". One name on FM(MW?) and another on their shortwave outlet?

Much more thrilling listening to mediumwave. Last night friday I logged within 5 minutes 2 LA stations on 1420.00 kHz

Late Friday afternoon:

Henrik Klemetz, spanish teacher for many years, says that the DJ, on my recording of Radio Libertad, unknown QTH, is talking about the town of "Chota". I think he is right. It´s not easy listening to Peru on 1220 but I will try to put another better recording on this ID-page. Thanks Henrik!

Late Saturday night:

Thanks to Glenn Hauser and Henrik Klemetz for sending me information about my unID Dominican station on 1640 kHz:

Glenn Hauser: "Altho Björn does not mention it here, the unID 1640 Dominican was first reported by Barry Davies, UK, in DX LISTENING DIGEST 4-098 of June 28 (also Medium Wave Circle); he had heard it June 25 at 0255-0303, sounded like ``Radio Bufay``. I could not make any ID out of Björn`s recording; when they give the address I don`t think it starts with the station name, but the street name. I went to the INDOTEL website where Resolutions are published authorizing new radio stations, http://www.indotel.org.do/Site/Marco_Legal/consejo/Resoluciones_2003/ and bingo, there it was under 2003 12 de mayo: Resolución 053-03 Que asigna de manera provisional a la Sociedad Salesiana de la Iglesia Católica la frecuencia 1640 KHZ para la operación de la estación Radio Juventus - Don Bosco, en la ciudad de Santo Somingo. This links to a 5-page PDF will all the details; power is 1 kW day, 500 watts night; they had 3 months from the date of the resolution to build the station, and the license period was only one year from the same date, but we are past that now. http://www.indotel.org.do/Site/Marco_Legal/consejo/Resoluciones_2003/Resolucion_053-03.pdf

Late, late mail from Henrik Klemetz:

"Nice job, Glenn. I found additional info by googling their slogan, which was quite clear on Malm´s clip: "una voz para la civilización del amor" which lead me to the following newspaper article www.listin.com.do/antes/junio04/ 250604/cuerpos/espectaculos/esp2.htm The street address is not listed anywhere, but it sounds like Calle Juan Evangelista something, número 49, Urbanización María Auxiliadora, in Santo Domingo de Guzmán./Henrik Klemetz".

Daniel Camporini from Buenos Aires has sent me a recording from 1978 of R. Tawantinsuyo, Cusco(Peru). Listen to his recording and read his very nice mail.

Thanks Daniel! 73s Bjorn

Daniel Camporini: "Como estas Bjorn, espero que bien. Respondiendo a tus preguntas te comento que yo grabo las emisoras desde 1965 apróximadamente, eso a resultas de mis estudios de periodismo. En aquellos años la unica manera de estar al tanto de la actualidad internacional era a travéz de la onda corta. Lamentablemente en esa epoca yo empleaba un grabador de cinta abierta marca "Geloso" colocando el microfono delante del parlante de una radio Philco 857 valvular (que aún conservo y uso a veces) que cubría todas las bandas de radiodifusión...las tecnicas han cambiado algo hoy!!!!

Recién a comienzos de los 70's pude emplear un grabador de casette "Toshiba" que hizo que la calidad mejorara. Especificamente la grabación de Radio Tawantinsuyo, como te decía en el mail, es de 1978, uno de los mejores años en mi opinion para escuchar radio, cuando operaba en los 6175 Khz. con una claridad asombrosa en ocaciones, y como esta hay muchas otras de Bolivia, Ecuador, Brasil, Uruguay, etc. Para fines de los 60's era muy facil escuchar onda media de Europa tan solo empleando el ferrite que traía incorporado el receptor, ya que en las radios valvulares este era de grandes dimensiones y bastaba con hacer girar la radio. Otro detalle es que en esa epoca las radios de onda media de Buenos Aires no transmitian las 24 horas y despues de la medianoche muchas frecuencias quedaban libres. Espero haber aclarado tus dudas amigo Bjorn y estoy siempre a tu disposicion. 73's".
