Radio Bilingue does EDM on Friday's it looks like

[pclover]

Looking at tropo here I discovered EDM being played on 90.9 KHDC here which is a relay for Radio Bilingue.

I guess they do every Friday night. Something unusual to see given it's very niche radio format.

Electronic Trance-Mission<!-- --> - Radio Bilingüe

EDIT: Sadly though hearing the classic ground loop hum in the signal during the quiet periods. Likely locally at KHDC.

They’ve been doing that for at least a decade.

Odd I haven't seen it mentioned before then.

Radio Bilingüe is mostly in the Central Valley of California, the Spanish-American areas of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado, and parts of Texas. Where I stayed west of Paso Robles on vacations up to the mid-2010s was on a hill; I could hear Radio Bilingüe on multiple frequencies there, though there is a translator in Paso Robles proper as well. The Friday night EDM programming was pretty distinctive, even considering how weird the constellation of formats is in San Luis Obispo County.

KHDC here is supposed to cover Chualar, CA and Salinas CA they say but it seems to cover much more in reality with a good signal. I find that with a lot of stuff around here.

The coverage seems pretty strategic. Basically it’s along 101 from Prunedale to Greenfield, which is where its likely audience probably resides and/or works. The only part of that Monterey County corridor that’s missing is King City.

Looks like they’ve got a CP for San Miguel (90.7) that will almost get to King City and will just barely reach Paso, so I suspect the Paso translator isn’t going away, which really shouldn’t anyway since it has good coverage of that city.
