[IRCA] KGA 1510 off at times last night

[Stan Weisbeck <stanw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I noticed local pest KGA 1510 Spokane off about 0200 ELT last night & they were mainly off for the next couple hours & still off when I went to bed.  They may be off again tonight or over the rest of the weekend as I imagine they are adjusting their antenna system and/or transmitter for their new reduced night power to allow sister station KPIG 1510 Piedmont (Bay area) to increase their night power.

If you're in the Pacific NW you should check 1510 tonight & the next few nights.

I logged one new one:

KCKK 1510 Littleton, CO with Sporting News Radio & calling itself "Mile High Sports Radio."

To add to the confusion, KGA is also a sports station.  I'm not sure which sports network they are affiliated with but it may well be Sporting News Radio.

KGA's new pattern is supposed to reduce their night signal to the south & east, & I'd speculate to the west, great news for DXers in those directions from Spokane, but bad news for me because I'm about six miles north.  So they will still be a local pest.

I guess those farther away that would like to hear KGA may not be happy either.
