ZANAHORIA EN ESCABECHE 6924.9 AM 0111 UTC 25 Nov 2020

SDR recording catch

0111 Carrier came on
0117 Music, Jorge Negrete "Ay Jaliso No Te Rajes", SIO 333
0121 Jorge Negrete "Yo Soy Mexicano"
0126 Jorge Negrete "Cocula"
0128 Jorge Negrete "Juan Charrasqueado"
0131 ZANAHORIA EN ESCABECHE repeated several times in CW
0134 SS OM "Esta es la ... " repeated, signal has faded by now, down to SIO 222 and then most 111 with some occasional peaks.
0136 CW again: ZANAHORIA EN ESCABECHE
0138 Music, too weak for Shazam.
0155 Mariachi Pablo Olmedo "Ay Jalisco No Te Rajes"
0206 CW again, weak.
0210 Back to music
0215 "Asunto Pendiente"
0254 CW, weak, sounds like ZANAHORIA EN ESCABECHE
0258 Carrier off

I would greatly appreciate an eQSL if the station operator happens to see this logging, thank you!

** NORTH AMERICA. 6924.884-AM, Nov 25 at 0223, VP S7-S8 music, only
pirate activity now; 0232 brief announcement, more music, LA? 0253
still going, at 0254 into MCW, but fading and only partially copiable
and perhaps with errors; ``CA - OA - OIAEN - ZAN - ORA - ABEC``, until
0258*. Thought it might be Nova, which does CW IDs, but no fit.

KIPM was reported on ``6925`` as late as 0130, but in USB:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74782.0.html

Stardust Five Laser Radio was on 6925-AM, but not since 2158 Nov 24:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74777.0.html

I was hoping someone on HFU would have IDed this and/or copied the
code. Nor any old hits there on the exacter frequency 6924.9 -- but I
had such a log last Feb, which led back to Captain Morgan SW in May
2017 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Glenn,

Was also listening to this station. Please listen to my recording and let me know what you can make out. Thanks.
 
Nov 25, on 6924.88 AM, tuned in at 0149 UT to non-stop LA music; 0206, CW (assume ID?) followed by spoken ID
(loop); 0209, test tone, followed by more of the same type of music..

Afraid I have no ability to deal with CW and very little to deal with Spanish.

My audio of one minute of music and then CW ID, followed by spoken IDs (loop), posted at https://bit.ly/3l1Dg03 .

Thanks very much for any help!

Ron,

Great, clear recording. CW is

ZANAHORIA EN ESCABECHE

Then M&W repeat multiple times ``esta es la zanahoria en escabeche``

Put that phrase in search and it means ``spicy pickled carrots`` --- a Mexican dish; ah yes, I`ve had those without knowing their name -- but -- now what?

Well, Mexico is really in North America...

Glenn

Thank you for the information. I first thought this was the Chile pirate doing a relay of a program. I heard that show via N3JLY in MD with a SIO: 333 overall.
Reciever: Degen DE-1103

Listening to pirate radio since 1980 on the EAST COAST USA - located in Central PA USA

I am not sure if this was from Mexico or not. I can however confirm it was not RCW Radio Compañía Worldwide, as per a conversation I had with them earlier today.
