I'm getting an interesting show on 2305. It's usually two
men on a radio show talking to each other. I believe that
one is calling the other on a phone line. They usually
speak about how things are going to get worse in the
upcoming year, with more tornadoes, heat waves and other
calamaties. Has anyone else heard it?

Chances are you heard a harmonic of a AMBCB station and Coast
to Coast.

I'm pretty sure it was a WCCR station, which would explain why
it was so strong. I thought I heard the names, Randy and Pete,
but I'm not sure.

It is WWCR.

I went to the page and I don't see them on 2305 KHz. Lowest
frequency they broadcast on is 3215/3210 KHz.


I listened to 3.215 and 2.305 which was a much weaker signal and the
broadcasts were the same.

I heard the call letters on the 3.215 freq.

They at 10:00 UTC they logged off 3.215 and advised listeners to
change to 9.985.

I don't understand the 2.305 signal.


Must be some kind of image generated in your radio then. The only other
USA broadcaster I hear down there is WWRB on 3185. Heard them playing
Brother Stair last night on that frequency.

Another thing is I think I heard WWCR on 3210 not 3215 last night. Maybe
your IF filter is wide enough to hear a strong station 5 KHz away.

Are you using an inexpensive portable radio?

Your post and the DPRK thread got me looking around these low bands last
night. Reception has been very good the last few days. I was hearing
stations across the Pacific, central, and south America.
