11780 Amazonias is just pounding in here like a ton of led **** bricks. SINPO Is all 6’s!
:)


11815 is quite nicely listenable. SINPO is like 45343.

9665 is ok’ish. Not as clear as 11815.

Inconfidencia is like 33333 on 15190

I’ve got a carrier and equal to noise floor audio on 10230, the Brazilian pirate.

11815 might be Brasil Central. 9665 could be Voz Missionaria

Nice opening into LA that night...Mike

Before anyone asks, everything is in Portuguese, as you might expect. These HF stations are used to reach into the Amazon where traditional FM or MW simply couldn't easily reach. In fact, in some cases, they relay their MW outlet directly.

This is just a little peek into broadcasting, Latin America style. Brazil is a favorite country to get.

Yes, i was typing on my phone and saving my fingers from excessive key strokes and everyone here from my awful typing.

Voz Missionaria is actually about 9666.7

The stations themselves are interesting, even if you don't know Portuguese, as they play an interesting mix of music. I've logged each of those stations within the past three weeks, except the pirate on 10230 khz. It's sometimes surprising to hear Voz Missionaria 9665 when the rest of the band is mostly dead. Ya never know.
