1620 Haitian Boston
« on: April 26, 2021, 1440 UTC »
Hey All,

4/20/21 1700 local  on 1620 Khz Haitian station  very strong in Creole near Franklin Park area of Boston. Not audible at my home QTH which is several miles away and also  behind hill (s).

This is the last (AM)  Haitian left that I know of (I didn't scan FM). All other frequencies in X band were  locally daytime quiet .

A few years back, Haitians dominated 1610 Khz  and above   with as many as 4 to 6  operating at once (at peak ) and another 1 or 2 in the upper end of the main band. All are gone except for this last hold out.
