E-skip returns again to California & Baja California with several new 7/11/17

Another nice Es opening this afternoon with several new! Times are when I officially logged the station. Sometimes I might be tracking down 2 or 3 stations at once and this will delay the post on the TVFM Skip Log.

1:26PM - First noticeable skip, San Diego up to 97.3 KSON and 95.3 XHHIT Tecate, BCN w/ ID 'La Caliente' relog, 4KW at 1000 miles.
1:26PM - 98.5 KDES Cathedral City, CA; ID '98.5 the Bull'. Relog, 43KW at 912 miles.
1:29PM - 98.9 XHMORE Tijuana, BCN; ads and ID 'More FM 98.9'. NEW #604, 50KW at 992 miles.
1:30PM - 88.3 KSDS San Diego, CA; ID 'Jazz 88.3'. Relog, 22KW at 971 miles.
1:32PM - 96.1 KYDO Campo, CA; ID 'Air 1' // 89.9 local translator. Relog, 25KW at 989 miles.
1:33PM - 102.1 KLVJ Encinitas, CA; w/ K-LOVE religious music parallel to local KYKV-103.1 Selah. Over semi-local KPQ Wenatchee. Relog (Not heard since 2009), 30KW at 942 miles.
1:35PM - 98.1 KXSN San Diego, CA; with 'Who Can It Be Now' Men at Work and ID 'Sunny 98.1'. Relog, 26.5KW at 976 miles.
1:39PM - 96.7 and 97.5 UNID SSers, thee 97.5 mentioned a phone number then faded. Will be sending to the WTFDA Forum UNID section.
1:45PM - 101.5 UNID with ad for casino near Yosemite, then a FoodMaxx commercial. Most likely KGFM.
1:54PM - 88.3 KAXL Greenacres, CA; with ID 'Thanks for keeping it local. This is 88.3 Life FM.' Relog, 21KW at 778 miles.
1:55PM - 88.1 KKJZ Long Beach, CA; over local KYTR Union Gap with Tony Bennett song and ID 'K-Jazz 88.1'. NEW #605, 30KW at 892 miles.

2:01PM - 95.1 KBBY Ventura, CA with TOH ID 'The New 95.1, KBBY Ventura.' Relog, 12.5KW at 854 miles.
2:06PM - 97.7 KNZR-FM Shafter, CA; ID 'KNZR'. Relog, 4.1KW at 779 miles.

2:13-15PM - UNID SSers on 103.9, 100.3 (not Toppenish) and 94.1, will need confirmation on all three of them.
2:16PM - 95.7 KPAT Orcutt, CA; ID '95.7 the Beat'. Relog, 3.3KW at 810 miles.
2:19PM - 97.3 KRJK Lamont, CA; ID 'The Bull 97.3'. NEW #607, 2KW at 787 miles.

2:23PM - 102.3 Another UNID Spanish station; suspect Corcoran CA. Regional Mexican music, then long stopset with male announcer, mentioning 'familia' at one point. Will send to WTFDA UNID forums.
2:27PM - 103.9 KBDS Taft, CA; local ads including concert promo at Mercado Latino '2015 Edison Hwy', and ID 'The New 103.9 the Beat'. NEW #609, 6KW at 793 miles.

2:31PM - 102.5 KSNI Santa Maria, CA; ID 'Sunny Country 102.5'. Relog, 13.5KW at 805 miles.
After this, skip took a huge dive out of FM. Good way to kill some time on a hot afternoon!

AUDIO HERE - Not posting the UNIDs on Radio Discussions. I get them solved on WTFDA's forums (there's several fluent SS speakers on the forums), and will update once I get confirmations of those stations.
