Update on the legitimate Ensenada/Tecate stations and their
not-so-legitimate Tijuana doubles:
The legitimate station XESDD-920 appears to be off. I can't tell about the
other two legitimate stations XESS-1450 or XHBCE-92.1 FM as I don't hear
them regularly from Chula Vista.
The not-so-legitimate XESDD-1030 is still running music which I think could
still be described as Mexican oldies, though I do hear some news in the
mornings. The signal is currently very weak and (I would guess)
undermodulated (the carrier is fairly solid but the music is barely
audible). KURS-1040 is louder despite being a few miles farther away and
(allegedly!) much lower power.
I just noticed not-so-legitimate XESS-620 is running classic rock (last song
was "I've Been Waiting for a Girl Like You") and using the slogan "Radio
Fiesta" after their call-letter IDs. I believe they were still ESPN
Deportes at the beginning of the week. I don't know if the current
programming is a full-time format change or just a weekend program.
No changes noted for XEPE-1700 or XEBCE-105.7.
