On my first check for it WZFN is currently (just past 7 am local time)
blasting in here, so I have no doubt it'll get out to the coast before
long. Certainly my easiest new station in quite a while.

Thanks Paul. You were reading my mind I just logged KVOX with night
lp, so this should be possible. Maybe even a daytime visitor in the
Winter. Gee, even a W call.

Just so that no one is confused by that slogan, it should be noted that this
station is licensed to Dilworth, MN just across the state line from Fargo, ND.
Also, although they are licensed for 50,000 watts during the daytime, they are
limited to 440 watts at night.

Yeah, Dilworth is like .. not even a mile from the state line.
It's currently owned by the Engineering firm who built it and they have an
Applicaiton to transfer ownership to the current (and soon to be former) GM
of WDAY 970, Scott Hennen.
They were off the air for a few weeks and even had an
I wonder where they send their 440 watts at night? They are lised as U2.

Thanks Paul. I was wondering who to send a report to if I log them. At
least I now have somewhere to start, but I may not hear it for a while.

A new W-call in ND??? No way. City of License is Dilworth MN, which is on
highway 10 just east of Morehead, i.e. a Fargo ND suburb. A new W-call in MN,
that far west of the Mississippi? No way, but there it is! Could it be that FCC
assumed it`s OK since WDAY 970 is in Fargo? But that`s an ancient

WFZN has been on the air, on and off since the WZFN callsign was assigned in
March 2006, for testing purposes and what not.
Critical Hours are from Sunrise to 2 hours later and from 2 hours before
sunset to actual sunset.
I don't know why they were issued a W call, but ah well, it just happened

They have been on all day with country music and some music that sounds
rather like soft AC. It might just be modern country.
No ads. No talk between songs except for an occassional I.D. They had
I.D.s
New stations in MN [if I am not mistaken] are allowed to pick either a K or
a W. Believe it has been that way since the beginning.
Doubt whether WZFN will be a sports station. The other new 50,000 watt
station on 740 [KVOX] is sports. But only WZFN knows for sure.

Hi,
WZFN 1100 is on the air with country and western music. Very weak snowy
signal for 50kw if that's what they are putting out. I am using a Sanserino
loop and a GE SuperadioII. As a comparison, KKAG 740, KFGO 790 and WDAY 970
all come in much stronger and all three are loud and clear
KAZ others.
Lost WZFN signal about 1615 CDT 10 Apr 08. Signal disappeared like someone
switched it off.
