750 YVKS RCR Radio Caracas beating up WSB tonight with YL SS talk clearly parallel to their webstream, 2500 miles to the South.  Not a common one for me to hear.

Wow, that is one heck of a nice catch!  I wish I'd been listening last night, now. 

The best I've ever gotten there is either CKJH in Melfort, Saskatchewan (still happy over that one) or a probable Texano, KAMA.  Usually, WSB stomps all over everything. 
Madison, WI, U.S.A. 
Tecsun PL-660, Yaesu FT60R handheld, and Realistic DX-398 (back up and running!) 
QSL's appreciated 

There's a geeklady turning that dial!

Thanks Chanter.  I've caught this a couple times in the past, but always under WSB.  They were way over WSB for a few minutes and made confirmation easy by comparing with their web feed.

And yes cmradio, the MW DX season is in full swing here and we're off to a great start if this is any indication!
