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.

2AP
Apia, has moved spot on on the frequency after
getting a new 5-kW transmitter. Two years earlier
with 0.5 kW of power I found the station on
540.0051 kHz. |

A3Z
Nuku'alofa, Tonga, still has a distinctive split
frequency. Heard almost daily on AIH106, the
station usually identifies simply as "Radio
Tonga". Most programming is in Tongan,
but for instance on this day an official announcement
from Tonga Power Limited about a planned power
cut was given also in English. |

Newstalk
ZB, Hamilton. A hint: at this particular time
Newstalk ZB stations give a local ID along with
the local FM frequency. This Hamilton transmitter
however doesn't identify as Hamilton, but "Waikato",
which is the larger surrounding district around
Hamilton. |

SBS Pop Desi, Launceston, Tasmania, with an
offset quite far from DWNX, which is almost
spot on. SBS however doesn't recognize this
transmission and hasn't verified my report.

La Voz de Cali, Cali. I heard this station for
the first time in 2012, but it is worth mentioning
because of the distinctive offset. The most
powerful signal from the region on this frequency
is Cuban Radio Progreso on 899.9923 kHz, abruptly
signing off today at 0845 UTC. |
