4940 Venezuela 2358 UTC 12 MAR 2024

Venezuelan anthem at tune-in, very loud from Bonaire SDR, Mexican ranchera, bluegrass version of Battle of New Orleans, SP sermon against alcoholism, English religious music, Venezuelan llanera music (religious ranchera music, not a big genre!)...I agree with the Wiki entry that suggests it's content taken off the internet, since the production and audio are very high quality, but the IDs as "Estación 4940" (using full words for the numbers) are high quality audio as well and the frequency is dead-on  within 15 Hz so it's pretty weird. Later (0227 March 13) I tuned into some gringo-accented indigenous language (not Wayuu). Next segment (0230) introduced as "idioma indígena piaroa" which I see online is spoken by 12000 people in the Orinoco region.

Big into SWDX late 70s through early 90s, then forgot about it and when I returned via SDRs it wasn't at all what I remembered, but I'll deal with it. Grumble, grumble. All SDRs acknowledged, nothing is from my own radio.
