Radio Coro 780

Radio Coro is by far one of the easiest stations to receive from Venezuela, perhaps second just to Radio Puerto Cabello. It was one of my first stations from Venezuela back in 1964 when I received a QSL-card for my reception on 4950 kHz.
They left the 60 meter band many years ago. Nowadays Radio Coro is almost always on the top on 780 when the AM band is open towards South America. When I searched for Radio Coro on the Internet I found this one about stolen equipment: http://www.fmcenteresnoticia.com.ve/?p=56640
I made some recordings last month and sent a report via Facebook yesterday. ( My recording can be found here http://www.box.com/s/n04mvl1j0hierxj374hs ). I was almost excited this morning when I received a very nice message from a locutora en Radio Coro. She writes " .....
YA ESCUCHE EL GINGLE, ESA ES LA PROMOCIÒN RADIO CORO 780 AM, FELICITACIONES SE ESCUCHA PERFECTO, ESTAREMOS EN CONTACTO Y LE ENVIAREMOR SALUDOS POR LA EMISORA Y EL TEMA, ABRAZOS Y GRACIAS POR SU SINTONIA...

My thanks to Migdala for Facebook conversation. Mil gracias y Feliz Navidad!
