[IRCA] WNSB415-1620 mystery solved



I have identified my mystery station on 1620.  Tis none other than wayward WNSB415 South San Diego (CA-905 @ Beyer Blvd. between I-5 and I-805), now giving actual IDs instead of test messages.
 
This station began on 1610 to alert motorists to illegal aliens crossing the freeways.  It moved to 530 (probably to avoid interfering with WNUB568 Chula Vista), where it promptly got clobbered by XETIM-540 (now XESURF).  Then they moved to 1700, where they promptly got clobbered by XEPE.  Now they are on 1620. 
 
CalTrans really didn't do their homework on this one (again!).  On 1620, they get clobbered by XEUT-1630.  A wiser choice would have been 1500 (far enough away from Qualcomm Stadium station which only runs OC these days) or 1600 (where the original San Ysidro TIS used to be I think... XEKTT is gone from 1600 and WNUB568-1610 Chula Vista mostly just runs OC these days.  The Ensenada station on 1590 doesn't get out enough to pose a problem).
