[IRCA] DX Update From Northern Delaware
DX update from northern Delaware:
A very local TIS X-bander that I was not aware of plus a few other new ones
(three on 1260 khz.) ranging in distance from 90 to 580 miles.
11-Aug-07 // 2243 local // 1640 khz. // WQFL338 // 10 watts? // Wilmington,
DE // Local TIS station that I have never heard before (apparently this
station became active on 9-Aug-06): "This is WQFL338 Wilmington owned by
the city of Wilmington and broadcasting messages 24 hours a day for the
city at 1640 khz. AM." The below indicated website appears to list (see
bottom of webpage) 3 tx sites for this TIS all at (I believe) 10 watts
power:

they're there) then "1260, The Pledge. The Talk Of West Michigan" Into CNN
