610..did hear KAVL from Iowa in the early 50s when they were on 1340).<<

The only time I ever heard KAVL was in Rancho Mirage. I QSL'd it there,
but never heard it in OR. 610 SF and Medford are hard to get around.

 >>1040-KURS-San Diego..no sign here (yet).<<

Logged KURS years ago, but never good enough for a report. I might have
a shot of it now, but the IBOC is horrible from 1050.

 >>1050-KMAP-Frazier Park (my local here went up from 1000 watts daytime
to 50 kw 24/7 in the last 20 years).<<

KMAP I do have heard and QSL'd, but that also was from the 80s I believe
when AU cx were excellent in the aftenoon in the Winter.

 >>1100-KAFY Bakersfield (again, I have a 50 kw local here).<<

Heard unid SS u/KFAX a time or two, but nothing else.

 >>1320-KSDT 
Hemet; <<

Another lucky break back in the late 80s/early 90s when I nabbed KSDT
one night. I was also looking for Oceanside which I did not hear. I got
a QSL from KSDT, but it took a couple f/ups.

>>1340-KWXY-Cathedral City (tried many, many, many times but no go).<<

No GYer heard from the Coahcella Valley here. At my place in Rancho
Mirage Cathedral City was my closest local at about 2 miles. My only
Coahcella Valley loggings up here are 920, 1010, and 1140. 1140 & 920
were both DX Tests and I have logged 1010 several times under different
call changes, but not for several years.

 >>1550-KWRN-Apple Valley (got nearly everyone but them thru my 10kw
local)<<

Never heard this one either, nor Victorville 1590. 

>>...Pardon me if some of the above have changed calls in the last 8
years. I need to bring my log up to date.<<

Don't worry about it, who can remember all of the call changes? I sure
can't. I find myself referring to a station with old calls often. About
the time you remember the new calls, they changed again. hi.

73,
