630 XEPBGJ Guadalajara 1100 UTC 31 Aug 2018
« on: September 03, 2018, 1051 UTC »
Jalisco Radio, a new one for me.  Their 6-note doorbell chime after the Mexican National Anthem gives this one away and really jumps out of the noise:

630_Khz_XEPBGL_31AU18_1100_UTC.mp3

Heard on the Southwest phased BOGs at sunrise, 1,844 miles.

Great catch. Nice to see evidence the MW season is already underway.

Nice one.  Band was quiet, for a change, just before sunrise this morning.

Except for Saturday, when we had a couple of rounds of storms blow through, MW has been fairly quiet for the past week.

Guadalajara is a nice catch any time of the year. Western Mexico and well to the south.

Thanks guys.  Hopefully the recording of the doorbell sound effect will help someone else add XEPBGJ to their logs.
