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.

WNIS
Norfolk VA, time check "WNIS Newstalk 1.57".
David A. Morgan, Director of Engineering and
a ham, told me in his verification email that
the station was temporarily running at only
25% of normal power with a non-directional antenna
instead of the usual directional antenna. This
made reception easier, as the nighttime directional
pattern is very unfavorable to our direction.

KMJE
Olivehurst CA, "La Buena" // 92.1
FM, presumably launching on daytime power precisely

1222 |
KYWN
Meridian ID, "La Perla 890 AM". This
Spanish-language station is so close to the
dominant CJDC (890.0027 kHz) that it can't really
be distinguished on the display. |
