Radio Interamericana in Concepción was surprisingly heard by Pertti Äyräs and myself during our LEM274-pedition to Lemmenjoki on January 31, 2009, the maybe most successful pedition we have experienced since 1995. After several f/ups I received an e-mail from Roberto Lucero verifying my report.
Radi Melodía is not the most commonly heard colombian on 1080 in Scandinavia but was heard with a nice signal in Lemmenjoki on February 9, 2012. Jairo Almeyda Santos verifield my report with the email below. Thanks Henrik Klemetz for your help!
“Hola Don Jan-Erik que grato saber que desde tan lejanas tierras nos sintoniza, esa grabación es una promoción de un espacio que realizamos de lunes a viernes en el horario de 9.30 pm a 2.00 am llamado ahora la lora, es un magazin en donde se tratan muchos temas y se pasa música. Reciba en nombre de nuestra estación los agradecimientos por comunicarse y hacernos saber de su sintonía, por favor haganos llegar su dirección fisica donde pueda recibir un detalle y la carta de certificación de su sintonía.”
LU11 R Trenque Lauquén was first logged in Finland by JMS/HS during LEM 227 in March 2006. The station has also been heard by Jari Ruohomäki (JPR) and by PÄ/JEÖ during LEM290 and LEM 303 in early February 2010 and 2011. The frequency 1280 is of course not straight forward during La Plata/Brazil cx due to the presence of R Tupí, Rio. There are a few additional La Plata stations to watch for though, such as ZP53 La Voz del Este and CX128 R Tacuarembó. These are quite unusual catches here in Scandinavia.
I received a nice email from Ricardo Neiser on LU11 confirming my report from February 2010.

This surprising argentinian was heard in Lemmenjoki in February 2011 with a weak but clear id “AM 1120 Emisora Santiago Y Copla , La Radio de los Provincianos y Santiaguenos”. AM 1120 is normally blocked by Rádio Rural, Porto Alegre, RS, Brasil but during southernly cx also Radio Salto, Uruguay is quite commonly logged. More rare ones are argentinians AM Tango and Radio Sarmiento. Oscar H. Gutierrez, Administrador kindly verified my report of Emisora Santiago y Copla.
Radio del Litoral in Concordia, Entre Ríos on 560 was surpisingly heard in Lemmenjoki in October 2010. The frequency seldom lets any Argentinians stations through. LV1 Radio Colón, San Juan has been heard a few times here but not recently while the two listed Nacionals still remain to be heard as far as I can remember. Educadora do Maranhao, Sao Luis, MA is the dominating station here during cx both towards the southern and the northern parts of South America. A very friendly verification was received by Director Jorge P. Demonte.
Normally 560 is occupied by R Educadora do Maranhao, Sao Luis, MA even during cx towards the southern parts of Brazil and La Plata. R Paulista SP is another Brazilian heard here quite frequently. Rádio Cultura, Guarapuava in Paraná was heard in Lemmenjoki in 2010 and a surprising message via Facebook from Jorge Teles, Director Artístico arrived recently verified my report. Muito obrigado Jorge!
This rare ecuadorian was heard in Lemmenjoki on October 22, 2011 during very good cx towards Colombia and Panamá. The station emerged for only som 15 seconds on a split slightly above 1240 and slightly below HJ-Buenaventura. The ID was clear “Radio Monumental – la numero uno!”. Henrik Klemetz caught all the phone numbers prior to this ID and called the station. Aftersome more detective work HK got the contact details to the station owner Saulo Barros. I received the below email verification from Barros. Thanks Henrik for your invaluable help and gracias Don Barros!

Radio Guyrá Campana (RGC) in Horqueta transmitting on 1420 was surprisingly heard by Pertti Äyräs and myself during our LEM317 pedition to Lemmenjoki on February 9, 2012. The station phaded up at several occasions during the night hours. A short email verification arrived in only ten minutes after a report to their “collective” email address. No personal “signiture” though.
Very good conditions towards Orinoco and Central America (read Panamá) occured on October 22. Radio Hogar on 1250 was one of the panamanians noted with it’s slogan “La Presencia Viva del Senor”. A short email and an attachment was received in some hours.
Muy buenos días, es grato para nosotros saber que pueden escucharnos en otros continentes, mil gracias por enviarnos su reporte de sintonia. Le deseamos un prospero año nuevo y que Dios le siga llenando de bendiciones.
