800 kHz: Unid Brazilian station with Brazilian regional
songs. A fourth station heard on the same frequency for 1 or 2 minutes, just
the songs. 22522 (RG).
REMARK: As published in WRTH, there are only 4 Brazilian
stations at 800 kHz. It was possible to hear this fourth station, in addition
to the other 3 informed above. This 4th station presented a sequence of
Brazilian regional music. I presume (only presume!!! ) that it may have been
Radio Antares, Teresina PI. It had no similar characteristic to the listened
stations of Brasilia, Santa Maria and Rio de Janeiro (the loop rotation allowed
this immediate verification). And as I said, there are only 4 Brazilian stations
at 800 kHz today. In other frequencies researched over time we have found some
stations of the north / northeast Of Brazil occasionally: 1380 kHz Radio
Continental, Recife, and has been constantly the same situation with 860 kHz
Radio City, Fortaleza.

(RG). A stupendous signal received from Radio Clube for several minutes!!!

1100 kHz: BBN Radio, via Viña del Mar, Spanish, 24/01
0105. Christian songs, male voice communication, ‘BBN’. 25432 (RG).
REMARK: Rx w/270° Az. Turning slightly from 270° Azimuth
to a 'north' position, there is an angular range with no station, zero signal.
Reaching 330° / 340° Azimuth, we find a new clear transmission from BBN Radio,
but with a lower signal than Viña del Mar. Antenna pointed at Colombia, there
is BBN Radio from Bogotá, at the same frequency as the Chilean broadcast. It is
no longer to the first time we have been able with this simple technique using
the Quantum Loop V2.0 Antenna, with a same result. Gustavo Guaita (Antonio
Carlos SC), and Denis Zoqbi (São Paulo) had enjoyed the same experience /
result.
COLOMBIA – CLM,
1100 kHz: BBN Radio, via Bogotá (pres.), Spanish, 24/01
0112. Christian songs, male voice communication. The same program as the same
station from Chile (see above, please).
REMARK: Turning slightly the direction of the 330° / 340°
Azimuth antenna westward, no other station found up to 270° Az, a full silence
track. In this second angle, back to BBN Radio, Viña del Mar, at 1100 kHz, with
a slightly higher signal strength than found in the Colombian transmission.
