Sometime logged here..KARS 860 in Belen NM has a synchro in Alb. Speaking of
syncros..Alb's KKOB 770 has a synchro in Santa Fe. I am unsure which if not
both make it here on good nights, like tonite with WABC phased out.
Anyhow...I count only 1 NM on 770 and 860 since I cannot be sure which (I
assume both) I have hrd.
Same thing for Euro synchros... I count them as 1 unless I have caught local
breaks (Spain has) but some stations/countries don't.
