King´s Village DX-Station March: Radio Cóndor Manizales


This station was heard on the nice "Manizales" dx-opening on March 26th. As in my earlier post the identity was found by Henrik Klemetz (TNX HK!) and the station also verified that it was really Radio Cóndor although the word "Cóndor" was just lost in the very deep fade at around 04.00. A nice email from the station´s director pointed out of a nice coindicence as my DX-QTH is near Kotka city in Finland (Kotka in English = eagle and "cóndor" is a big "Andean eagle" as well. The director Mrs. Ana María Mesa writes "Sí, el cóndor es un ave andina de gran envergadura. Es una bonita coincidencia."
Below is a clip with both the ID captured on March 26th and an "original" from the web (tnx HK!). Although it is hard to hear the "Cóndor" when the station was heard, the station verified that the program was from them, as well as the (canned) ID although it fell down fading out at the critical moment. Thanks for the picture of Manizales,Henrik.

Muchas Gracias Directora Ana María Mesa!

  2. Ok... I was reading your blog and I have two questions:

    1. All the messages that I had recived in my four years on this station had happened in the first semester of the year... this has a fisical explication?

    2. Do you Dx have a page in fb?

  3. Ana María,
    comentando su pregunta, quiero decirle que los equipos receptores usados hoy en día son increíbles. Antes ni podíamos soñar con lo que ahora es posible. Hay equipos capaces de rastrear y grabar simultáneamente anchuras de banda de 190 kHz o más. Por otro lado, la banda de AM ya no acusa el hacinamiento de antaño. Muchas radios europeas se pasan a la banda de FM, dejando libres ciertas frecuencias en AM.
