Radio Verdad 4055 kHz 1143 UTC 22 Sept 2018
« on: September 23, 2018, 0120 UTC »
Woke up early and heard this Guatemalan religious station from 1143-1207 UTC, with hymns and other religious music in Spanish, often just played on piano with one singer. Around 1200 UTC, several songs sung by children, including one song in English ("Salvation and Glory"?). Never any talking or ID played.

This signal boomed in at first, then weakened during long fades for fair reception until a little after 1200 UTC, when the atmospheric noise racheted up quite a bit.
