Another cult leader, David Koresh by name, had it in the cult rules that he was married to just about any woman who joined his cult. This sexual access to multiple women may be the reason why the cult was started to begin with.

Hearing Radio Verdad (Guatamala) on 4055 kHz AM, 0140 UTC on 12/1/2017
Intertubes says this is rated 1kw. Blog post message from station in 2015 says 800 watts.
S-4 to S-7 peaks with various instrumentals and Christmas music. Coming in pretty well considering the distance and low power level.

Getting this since 0012 UTC. S-2 but my receiving antenna connections are probably messed up.
I heard an ID clearly IDing as "WBIG" (or "WBYG"?) and then doing a shout-out to WHYP...
but the music does sound like WHYP.
Ok, that was an old clip he played, confirmed WHYP via email and later clear ID.
Sounding very good at times, but fading down to nothing for periods.

General Radio Discussion / Lawmakers demand investigation into FCC Chairman Ajit Pai
« on: November 14, 2017, 2147 UTC »
Two Democratic lawmakers today called for an investigation into whether Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai "has taken actions to improperly benefit Sinclair Broadcast Group."
The FCC has made several decisions that benefit Sinclair, a broadcast station owner with a right-wing tilt. Among other things, the FCC rolled back broadcast TV station ownership limits, which could help Sinclair complete an acquisition of Tribune Media Company and, in the process, reach 72 percent of TV-owning households in the US.
According to two representatives, Pai hasn't sufficiently answered questions about his relationship with Sinclair. Those congressmen are Energy and Commerce ranking member Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-N.J.) and Oversight and Government Reform ranking member Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), who said as much in a letter to FCC Inspector General David Hunt.
Pallone and Cummings wrote that they have "repeatedly asked for all correspondence between Chairman Pai, his office, and Sinclair," without much success. Now they want the FCC inspector general to investigate. They continued: Because of the number of incidents where members of this administration have used personal communications services for government business, we also inquired whether the Chairman or his staff have used personal e-mail or social media messaging applications to communicate with Sinclair.
The Chairman has repeatedly refused to answer these inquiries, raising questions about whether he is appropriately following Commission rules. FCC actions that help Sinclair, "when taken in context with reported meetings between the Trump Administration, Sinclair, and Chairman Pai's office, have raised serious concerns about whether Chairman Pai's actions comply with the FCC's mandate to be independent," the Democrats say.
The Trump campaign "struck a deal with Sinclair Broadcast Group during the campaign to try and secure better media coverage," Politico reported in a December 2016 story that was mentioned in the Democrats' letter. Trump reportedly discussed potential FCC rule changes in a meeting with Sinclair's executive chairman, and Pai or his staff "have met with Sinclair representatives on numerous occasions," Pallone and Cummings wrote.

Thought I was too late, but still on at 0136 UTC.
VERY strong audio coming through here, comrades! Sounds GREAT!
(About S-3 but my screwy antenna connections often attenuate signal strength).
Have slight interference from some tone generator but that's probably local.

I believe the T-368 was a 400-watt carrier. Must weigh somewhere around 1 pound per watt or more, lol.
Fair Radio Sales was pushing these in the '80s... It was purportedly used by a lot of rebel-type stations in Central and/or South America.
