Wikipedia description:

Jocotán is a town and municipality in the Chiquimula department of Guatemala. Radio Chortis, a Roman Catholic radio station funded by Belgian and German Catholics, is located in the town. It broadcasts primarily in Spanish, but there are a few hours a week in the Ch'orti' language, which is still spoken in some isolated areas.
