TWO VIDEOS: PERU 5025 KHZ & WWV ON 25 MHZ!


TWO VIDEOS
Peru on 5025 kHz & WWV on 25 MHZ


Here are two videos I recently posted on YouTube:

5025.02 kHz - PERU. R. Quillabamba - Cusco. I decided to check this out while the co-channel Cuban station, Radio Rebelde wasn't dominating the channel. Rebelde and most other Cuban outlets were off-air due to Hurricane Ian's extensive damage to transmitter sites. Sign on at 0957 with an orchestral opening, the full Radio Quillabamba station identification, mentioning FM, MW and SW freqs. Male and female announcers, many recorded announcements. This was a rare opportunity to hear the Peruvian station! Normally, it's nearly impossible to catch Quillabamba when Radio Rebelde is on-air.





The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Time and Frequency Division at Fort Collins, Colorado, USA, aside from all its other outlets on 2.5, 5, 10, 15 and 20 MHz, also has an experimental station that operates when required for testing and observation purposes. This HF outlet is on 25 MHz in 12 Meter Band and can be heard when reception conditions are favourable in years of higher sunspot numbers. This recording was made here in Melbourne, Australia on October 7, 2022 at 2102 UTC and is the first time I have heard the station since the last sunspot cycle in 2016.
