2343 UTC Found this on 7503 AM with a fair signal amidst light fading and a bit of flutter fading. I was checking to see if the Latin American station posted was on (It wasn't!). YL and OM in unid language. First time hearing this station!

2355 UTC I'm getting splatter from WBCQ on 7490 AM...Pretty much wiped out 7503...
