1540 0400 BAH ZNS-1 Radio Bahamas, Nassau/South Beach (npr) Presumed with a mention

1290 0402 VEN YVLF Radio Puerto Cabello, Puerto Cabello (cbb) Vocal ID Weak  7637 km

** Personal first

Radio Buenos Aires was again heard clearly on 1350 between 0300 and 0400. Several snippets of south American audio were heard on other frequencies too, including 980, 1200 and 1380.

I have never concentrated my efforts on the South American continent since living in Skegness, always focusing on North America and the far east.

What was of more interest this morning was the Argantine national anthem, heard on 1190 at 0300. This may be Radio America again, but Henrik Klemetz at Real DX suggested it 'might' be Radio Nacional Tucuman. There were two stations on the frequency at the time. I will have to watch this frequency more closely.

Good DX!
