There was no Colombian noted by AM DXers; XEDE in Saltillo, Mexico was the
Spanish signal noted mixing with RJR from Jamaica even in the East and much
of the Midwest.
That's possible. I simply said Colombia because the other poster thought it
could be. Whatever it was, I can't claim it as a catch because I never heard an
ID. On the other hand, the Jamaican is obvious, and is frequently heard here.
At last sunspot minimum, CHTN was as strong as WGN here a few times, heralding
a good North Atlantic path for European stations.
Are you sure it was XEDE? They only run 250 watts at night (albeit
non-directional). On the other hand, there are much stronger stations in
Nicaragua, El Salvador, Colombia, and Venezuela, though I don't know their
antenna patterns or hours of operation.
