These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of
USA, unidentified [if any], separated by ======= Within each, they are in
frequency order
** U S A. 1020, Dec 21 at 0528 UT, Spanish pentecostal gospel huxter overcoming
KOKP Perry OK, especially if I null it, typical of what KCKN Roswell NM used to
accomplish before it crashed. Making 3.5 Hz SAH = 210/minute. At 0531 UT, KDKA
makes it thru with ID and CBS News Update. AM Switch in NRC DX News post-dated
Dec 26 reports:
``STAs granted: 1020, KCKN NM Roswell – Granted STA with U4(?) 1000/1000; bad
tubes in main transmitter`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1857, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1130, Dec 21 at 0524 UT, S9+40 signal in silly sports talk,
overcoming KMOX IBOC circa 1133. Playing ``Spanish Flea`` song in background.
Must be KWKH Shreveport LA on 50 kW ND day pattern, much more signal than we
normally get at night when it`s supposed to be a wide blob centered on SSW,
essentially nothing to the north (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1250, Dec 21 at 0519 UT, strange rappish song of syllables, including
``konichiwa`` a couple times, but not sure rest is Japanese; then songs in
Spanish and English, but more than one station mixing. 0521 UT fades in strange
language again, 0522 UT Spanish announcement re navidad, and English ad for
tickets at Little Rock Center, a venue? Or Little Rock Central, referring to
the notorious historic high school? So I will tentatively ID this one as KPZK,
2000/1200 watts U4, UC:AC format from Little Rock AR, per NRC AM Log (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1480, Dec 20 at 1355 UT, KBXD Dallas, Radio Salam Namaste W&M
chattering in Hinglish, something about banana chips (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1590, Dec 20 at 0513 UT, HPRN Sports report, including a Nazarene
girls` team, forecast hi today 56, lo 29 (obviously stale from previous morning
hours), fishing license PSA, 0515 UT High Plains Radio Network, AM 1590.
Therefore it is KDAV Lubbock TX, 1000/1000 watts U4. Some QRM from S Asian
music, KMIC Houston or WCGO Evanston IL? Also a low audible het (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
======================
UNIDENTIFIED. 2520, Dec 19 at 1348 UT, S6 carrier with some fading to S5, no
modulation audible which ought to be, if any; 1355-1402 UT monitored
continuously in case about to sign-on. Likely a second harmonic, and Tim Tromp
in West Michigan had just reported yesterday to the harmonics yg: ``WOCO on
2520 (2 x 1260), Strong signal right now on 2520 // to 1260 kHz (also heard
here) and confirmed with a clear TOH ID at 1300 UT with local talk and
Christmas music``. WOCO of course is close to him in Oconto, Wisconsin, 1000/29
watts U1 plus 500-watt PSRA. WOCO official sunrise is 1315 UT in Dec, 1330 UT
in Jan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1857, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
