1995-07-11 Radio (Nuevo) Horizonte 5770.8 0025 (Chiclayo?), w/Peruvian cumbia; OM w/echo ID, more pop mx-several songs in a row; TC/ID at 0053 giving fqy-sounded like "5772 kHz, onda corta, banda internacional de los 53 metros." OM giving greetings to listeners in Rioja, mentions of Nuevo Horizonte, depto. de Cajamarca and Chota... Returned at 0158 to hear rap/disco mx. Anmt at 0201 that was so heavily echo'd that I couldn't copy anything except clear "en Chiclayo" (location of R.Horizonte 4505 kHz) at the end. OM w/ TC and closing followed by a disco "Radio Horizonte" song. Off air at 0207. fr-gd strength but tough copy w/slop de Swiss Radio spur on 5775 kHz. July 9. IDs during the evening were both "Radio Horizonte" and "Radio Nuevo Horizonte." I thought this was a NF for ex 4505 kHz. However, on July 11 at 1204 UTC, I tuned in to exactly the same fqy and the ID was completely different. There were a bunch of pop songs in a row, then at 1125 a YL said "7 de la manana, 25 minutos en los estudios de Estacion (Pulitor ??)." Signals were vgd. Maybe a new owner for Radio Horizonte's old transmitter? (McVicar) Jihad 41
