Note: As with all continents,
only rarities are listed. Another 100+ Spanish
stations would have been available as well.
Iberia (Spain, Portugal, Azores, Gibraltar
& Andorra) counting as a separate continent
is a Finnish DXers' quirk, underscoring Iberia's
traditionally strong status in Nordic DXing
and the distinctive character of its broadcasting
scene.
