No time for listening except just for fun in the island of Roatan in Honduras January 15-17 on my half-defunct Sony ICF-7600D and no extra antenna. However, location seems very nice for AM and SW DX. While I was gone, a QSL in from (hrd in Denmark) 1460 kHz WGNA Delmar, NY. V/s Mrs. Beverly Groth. For what it is worth here a list of some of the stns ID'd, as illustration as to what could have been done with a good receiver and antenna - and time to listen. All heard fair to strong in AM mode. There was a huge amount of other stations on MW, including a large amount of Mexican stations, not listed below. It is good fun to listen down at the beach .... 590 R America, San Pedro Sula, HND 650 WSM Nashville, TN 670 WWFE Miami FL 700 WLW Cincinnati, OH 700 HRN HND //600, 660, 680, 690 720 R Caribe, La Ceiba, HND 720 WGN Chicago IL 740 KTRH Houston TX 750 WSB Atlanta GA 770 R Norte, San Pedro Sula, HND 800 R Mundial, San Pedro Sula, HND 820 WBAP Ft Worth TX 900 R Centro, La Ceiba, HND 950 R Cortes HND 960 R Utatlan HND 990 La T Grande, Monterrey, MEX 1040 Estereo Exitos HND 1130 KWKH Shreveport LA 1190 XERV R Villa MEX 1200 WOAI San Antonio TX 1210 XEBO R Centro MEX 1230 R Tela HND 1250 UNID, fair, ann "R Figuna" or "Siguna" (or similar) between otherwise non-stop tunes 1290 HRGS Christian R HND, ann'd 1200-1300 English, 1300-2100 Spanish 1310 LV Evangelica HND //4820 1320 R Bahia, La Ceiba, HND 1440 R Maranatha NCG 1440 HRRD HND ann's HRRD Radio San Isidro, not Dimension R 1490 R Portena, HND 1510 WLAC Nashville TN 1550 UNID Mex "R Lagar" (as heard), seemingly Chiapas area 1550 Cadena Cascutlan SLV 1560 R Consentida MEX 1570 R Vea GTM - also ann's Radio Voz Evangelica de America 1580 VOA Belize 1590 KYOK Houston TX 1590 R Triunfadora GTM 1590 Bonita AM MEX 1600 R Maria GTM 1700 CMQ - heard whenever checked, even daytime A survey of SW logs during same period will be in next DX-Window / Numero Uno. 73's Finn
