At saturday morning, 26th March 2011, I had a strong sunrise peak towards the Cajamarca region of Peru. Strong signals at many frequencies. With the Perseus I captured a number of interesting signals and the most unexpected was Radio Layzon, Cajamarca, which went through the Europeans with a relatively sharp sound and the typical Andean music. Several Cajamarca mentions in the talk and later an echoing announcement as "Layzon-Layzon-Layzon" fixed the identity. Fredrik Dourén - FD,Borlänge also caught them the same time.
Grimaneza Ortiz, Gerente de la Radio verified my reception report and asked me why not also listening to their FM transmitter 90.5.....? :-)

OAX4U Radio Cielo, Lima -1010
The station appeared at the morning peak of 18th of March 2011 when a small rush towards Peru with the most common 5-6 stations. The station gave several IDs which I had at first a bit difficult to decipher, but with the help of my friend Torolf-TJ it was fixed .
Raúl Adolfo Arias Ramos confirmed quickly my reception report via email. The station broadcasts with 10kW from Lima, but is not very common most time of the year, best chances we have in April and May.

WZYX Cowan TN -1440
In late October 2010 I started to watch the silent hour of Luxembourg -1440 on the night to see if anything interesting would pop up. Just a few nights later there was a big surprise when some gospel music showed up on the frequency followed by the announcement "... more news with Wayne Thomas heard 25 past each hour on WZYX"Probably a day/night switch power failure which resulted in the fun log.
