2-5-2011, GUATEMALA, R. Verdad (tent), 4052.5 AM, very weak SS,
apparent conversation, SINPO 15231. Not sure what they are using for
a TX now, but fair signal.

Bruce, could you check 1480 Khz AM? I think it's from Texas. Spanish
speaking. I got it some months ago, but not much luck lately.

1480 is a high band regional channel used in about every third city out
west.

I will give it a try tonight - but we get lousy MW DX here as a rule.

60 feet is too short. Even if you have radical bends a longer wire will
work better. You could always try the loop.

Well - yes, it's too short - and yet it still overloads all of my
radii with signals from 50 kW 1100 AM about 2 miles away...and that's
just the beginning. RF Hell is right here.

I do have a QSL from them though, and for a signal that was
considerably weaker than this one :-)
