And the manager recalls it was always Villa Acuña, Coahuila, México
for his tenure, which ended around 1972.

The manager is mistaken. The ID quoted here is the one I remember.


You are amusing. Your recollection, reinforced by a book that is just
chock full of errors, is better than the word of the guy who lived at
the station for about 12 years, negotiated with the town, and handled
all the licensing requirements.

Many DXers from the 60's have the XERF verie letter signed by Sergio
Ballesteros.


That's all well and good, but I remember hearing the IDs and the
"see-you-dad" pronunciation by Mr. Kallinan was quite unmistakable.
How come you never listened?


I did not find the station particularly amusing or entertaining after
first discovering it in about 1958. By the early 60's, I was more
interested in stations like XEB and HJED, which I taped nightly to
listen to the next day. Far better music than the stuff on XERF.


How abnormal.
