Re: [IRCA] 1020 Rel

Noticed what must have been KAPS shortly after midnight this morning.  Was mixing with Calgary & Window Rock.  Orcutt wasn't much of a factor which was quite surprising as the south seemed to be predominant over the lower band. e.g. XETNT 650 strong (over buzz)
on 650 when beaming NW/SE.  Mt. Vernon is very rare around here.  I picked them up at sunset a few times in mid winter a few years back but rarely since then.  And Doug, your KCKN is exceptionally rare at my locale.  Seems I get Los Angeles & Selah & rarely when
northern conditions are good I'll hear Moses Lake but Roswell only a couple times over the last 10 years.
