Phil Congratulations on hearing WCCO. There's a station I haven't heard in many years. Maybe I just listen at the wrong time, but all I hear there is KNCO and CKKY (wnich was probably your unid cw). I'd been on a business trip all week and totally forgot about the KLAA test. Bruce Phil

As expected, no luck here either. Just a very loud WCRN Worcester, MA with some other talker weakly in the background - maybe old friend WCCO which was heard nightly here in the 60's and 70's. Marc DeLorenzo South Dennis, MA http://hometown.aol.com/midcapemarc/myhomepage/profile.html

Jim, I tried for the test (well, in automated fashion), but have just checked the tape, and no sign of KLAA here. Had nulled WCCO, but the only station I was hearing was in Spanish. A little unusual as I'd have expected CKKY to dominate. Regardless, thanks to all involved for running
