Re: [HCDX] Mystery time signal on 790 kHz

["Ken Alexander" <kpathai@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

   Almost guaranteed that's Radio Reloj from Cuba.  All of their broadcasts
   have the time pips in the background with the identification "RR" in morse
   code (didahdit didahdit) on the minute.  RR stands for R. Reloj.

   Check around the dial on a good night and you'll find that on many freqs.
   R. Reloj operates on many freqs in the MW Broadcast band.  Many times all
   you'll hear of them will be the RR on the minute.

   73,
