Anyone heard Radio Huaya lately? (Wasn't it on 2390 kHz?)

-------------

"For roughly three decades, Radio Huayacocotla (pronounced
hway-ah-koh-KOHT-lah), a 500-watt short-wave community radio station
deep in the heart of rural Veracruz state in east-central Mexico has
served as an audio lifeline for some of this country's poorest and most
overlooked people. Broadcasting eight hours a day, six days a week, in a
region where the illiteracy is high and the technology low, the station
is many people's main news outlet. And as the only licensed radio
station operated primarily by and for indigenous Mexicans, it's a unique
source of two other commodities that some deem crucial to this
community's long-term survival: regular contact with distant loved ones,
and the freewheeling, improvisational music called son huasteco."

I haven't listened to them in quite some time (Do have them QSL'd though from
back in 1987) but they are/were apparently still on the air at least as late as
June according to:
