[IRCA] MW DX from Enid OK, June 29-August 2, 2012



All times and dates strictly UT. MW log editors are welcome to excerpt items, reformat and change to favorite timezone if necessary. Rx: mostly DX-398 with internal antenna only; some caradio as specified; above 2 MHz on FRG-7 with 110-foot east-west longwire.

These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also VHF/UHF, sometimes, utility, ham, which may be found in several archives without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxldmid.html

** CANADA. 1140, July 3 at 0557 UT, as I was trying to sort out the 
Spanish [see MEXICO], a brief surge brings in an full ID from AM 1140, 
CHRB, High River, Alberta. Maybe new here, but with 46 kW night power 
should not be unusual, except: night pattern has zero signal south, 
all of it in a tangent circle northward per NRC Pattern Book of a few 
years ago. I don`t think we can believe such patterns from CHRB, nor 
XEMR all southward. High River is just SSE of Calgary which I assume 
is the only reason such a small town would merit such a big station 
(50 kW non-direxional day) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Up early enough July 7 for some sunrise skip again:

650, July 7 at 1118, jingle amid music for ``Los Mochis --- 106.5``, 
i.e. XETNT, a.k.a. Radio 65, a regular here on SRS.

660, July 7 at 1120, IFE PSA, ``102.9, la que soprende`` (surprises, 
not sure of last word). No, it must be this in a Cantú AM/FM match:
660 XEEY La Kaliente + FM 102.9 Aguascalientes, Ags. 50,000	10,000

770, July 7 at 1122, Los 40 Principales, then song ``El Sinaloense``, 
naming various towns in tribute to this lovely state. By 1127 ID for 
an FM station in Los Mochis, so it is:
770 XEREV Los 40 Principales + FM 104.3 Los Mochis, Sin. 5,000 100
I suspect it was on day power already, 50 times greater than at night

950, July 7 at 1105 as I tune by this frequency adjacent to local 
KGWA, I hear one word, ``Montemorelos``. Is there a 950 there? Yes!
950 XERN Radio Naranjera + FM 100.9 Montemorelos, N.L. 5,000 1,000
says Cantú. Chance are high, but not 100% that this was it. 
Fortunately I don`t have to decide whether to count it since I don`t 
count stations heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1570, July 8 at 0505, XERF is playing the Coahuila state 
anthem, after the midnight NA; it`s triumphal too and resembles the 
NA. Usual considerable CCI from all the US stations infesting what was 
once a Mexican clear channel, including one certainly in English at 
right angle to Del Rio. 0508 XERF gave an ID including an FM frequency 
now. Cantú does not yet show that, tho he does include FM //s for an 
ever-increasing number of Mexistations, as transition from AM to FM is 
being promoted by the SCT. Nor does their own website 
http://www.lapoderosa.imer.gob.mx/
Need to remonitor and clinch the new FM frequency.

1570, July 11 at 0508 UT after the NA and the State Anthem, I try 
again amid the US QRM to catch the new FM frequency XERF is announcing 
along with 1570. It`s either 103.9 or 106.9 (tres y seis sound a lot 
alike), due to a fade/distortion as that number was being spoken; 
power 4,000 watts, but could not copy the callsign either. Nothing 
about it on the IMER website, so I resort to the webstream
http://www.imer.gob.mx/phpwrappers/player5/info.php?emisora=11
Around 1445 UT they have programming from the virtual station Radio 
México Internacional with `Antena Radio` newshour. ID at 1501 says 
XHRF on 103.9. 

It seems we are in for a lot more confusion about Mexican callsigns; 
trying to ID something else, Terry Krueger got this explanation from 
Fred Cantú of the http://mexicoradiotv.com/coahuila/index.htm listings 
which still don`t show any FM for XERF, but fortunately when searching 
the entire site, no other use of XHRF: [as above via Krueger] (Glenn 
Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1625, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. Some sunrise MW DX July 14:

680, July 14 at 1117, ``en L-G, la Grande``, i.e. per Cantú
680 XELG La Grande + FM 95.5 León, Gto. 10,000 3,000
So the L-G has a double meaning. Also with IFE PSA, same heard on 
several other stations, congratulating themselves on carrying out the 
elexion, and with an artificially sped-up disclaimer at the end, 
something about not representing any particular party.

700, July 14 from 1120, a weak Spanish station with no QRM unlike all 
the other frequencies; 1128, promo for 1,110 Radio Red, i.e. relay of 
México DF, and by now there is a weak SAH from something else. As this 
signal is weakening, a mention of Grupo Radio Centro, i.e. per Cantú:
700 XEDKR Radio Red AM Guadalajara, Jal. 10,000 150
Site axually Tonala, Jalisco. Standard remark about day vs night power

770, July 14 at 1126, ``Los 40 Principales`` slogan and ID sounded 
like Radio Ka (the letter K), with an FM ID I could not copy, but also 
definite 5:25 timecheck, so the only one fitting is, per Cantú
770 XEREV Los 40 Principales + FM 104.3 Los Mochis, Sin. 5,000 100
Standard remark about day power vs night power

860, July 14 at 1112, ``Radio Frecuencia`` which sounded like a 
station name rather than a generic mention, into a balada. But 
nonesuch listed in Cantú, IRCA or WRTH. KKOW Kansas no problem yet.

990, July 14 at 1105, XET Monterrey NL, ``La T Grande`` with morning 
newscast, temp 24 and pleasant, child electrocuted, as he was wet, 
barefoot and grounded when he potentially touched something.

1320, July 14 at 1059, unfamiliar presumably state anthem in progress, 
1101 segué to familiar choral NA, heavy QRM and lost by the time any 
ID would follow (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTIENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 630, July 19 at 0458, Mexican NA is playing in a version 
not often heard, band rather than orchestral or choral; 0502 segué to 
another anthem, of a state? Only lyrix I could copy were ``entre 
tierra y montaña``, and suspect it`s the usual dominating signal here, 
XEFB in Monterrey, but I don`t find a match to those words in the 
Canto a Nuevo León, nor a sportive one for Monterrey itself. Of 
course, was fading out by 0505 for tentative XEFB ID.

630, July 20 at 0504 UT I listen again to the unfamiliar state or city 
song following the NA, and then definite ID this time for XEFB, 
Monterrey NL, US stations more or less nullable. Turned back on at 
1122, now nothing but Spanish talk, probably same, with nothing from 
Denver or St Louis (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sunrise log July 20, UT: 710, at 1124, very good signal in 
Low German, preacher about the Bibel with accent sounding more 
Englisch than Spanisch and as he is upwrapping, self-imposed QRhyMn; 
1126 gives address of Die Bibel Sag, in Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua. 

And immediate segué to jingle, ``con la música que te gusta, XEDP, La 
Ranchera de Cuauhtémoc``. Not yet! Then starts hard-sell adstring. 
KGNC might as well not exist.

710, July 21 at 1106, XEDP, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua goes from 
multi-verse choral NA to ``Soy Soldado``, super-patriotic militaristic 
pledge of allegiance, spoken by a male rather than sung; 1109 segué to 
state song with Chihuahua mentioned several times, tenor with choir 
and band. 1110.5 a male prays briefly to Jesus, then a female sings to 
be pardoned. Finally sign on with their new(?) FM getting top billing, 
XHDP 89.7 10 kW, y XEDP 710, 5 kW, La Ranchera, street address, 
another station of Grupo BM Radio, finally usual jingle ID as XEDP, 
1113 live DJ mentions 89.7 only, 1120 time as 5:20, 1125 song ``El 
Borracho`` (The Drunkard).  Since I heard a Low German gospel-huxter 
yesterday at this time, I was trying to catch when that started, but 
not at all on this Sabbath by 1128. 

A super signal and very steady, hardly any fades. I would have rated 
it 50 kW, not just 5; finally started to fade around 1137, a few 
minutes after LSR here. WRTH and Cantú give it 7 kW, big deal. Cantú 
also shows 89.7 with the real callsign XHEDP, so some previous holder 
of XHDP must have objected to such an usurpation. Since many letters 
of the Spanish alfabet end in the syllable -e, including ache, the 
intrusive E in the middle of the official callsign can easily be 
swallowed, unheard. I bet that`s why SCT picked it for this purpose. 
The jingles produced long ago still just say XEDP (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
WORLD OF RADIO 1627, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. 580, July 29 at 0504 UT, probably just after NA, ``La 
Rancherita del Aire, radio sin fronteras`` singing ID, then temps as 
32C/90F; makes slow pumping SAH of 160/minute = 2 and two-thirds Hz 
with WIBW as IDed shortly. It is of course XEMU, Piedras Negras, 
Coahuila on the border. Did not catch calls, but gave 580 plus an 
uncopied FM frequency. Cantú shows that is another recent addition, 
XHEMU 103.7, and AM night power is 2.5 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 710, Thursday July 26 at 1125 UT I check XEDP again for Low 
German as heard last Friday at this time: it`s the same preacher and 
same program, but presented only in Spanish with a slight accent, 
pontificating about repenting and accepting JC, closing with address 
in Colonia Álvaro Obregón, or La Biblia Dice, Apartado 213, 
Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua, phone 584-0126; 1126 XEDP ``La Ranchera de 
Cuauhtémoc`` jingle. By 1137 it was losing out to KCMO rather than 
KGNC. Sunrise here was 1134. Maybe he`s in Low German on Fridays only 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sunrise MWDX July 28, UT:

590, July 28 at 1119, ``Radio Paco`` mentioned amid music, sure sounds 
like an ID slogan, but no Mexicans listed anywhere by that name. Since 
I have just been getting XENK Mexico City on 620, a good bet is the 
590 in the DF, officially XEPH, ``La Sabrosita``, which can be loosely 
translated as ``mouth-watering``. Trying to avoid being too distracted 
by the cheesecake infesting the website, at  
http://www.sabrosita590am.com.mx/v3/paginas/programacion.php
I find that the Saturday 6-8 am bloque musical is deejayed by one 
Francisco Suárez, who could easily nickname himself ``Radio Paco``. 
Q.E.D.

620, July 28 at 1111 UT, classic rock in English, ``He Ain`t Heavy; 
He`s My Brother`` by the Hollies; good signal, would R. Disney in The 
Metroplex play that? Probably not and the signal is too good for KMKI. 
1116 ``Lo mejor de los 70``, and Radio 6-20 ID, various federal PSAs, 
promos, Asociación de Radio del Valle de México clinches it must be 
XENK in the DF. Is also selling this music? 1118 ``El Catálogo de 
Oro``, next ``Ophelia`` in English; is it all? ``Internacional`` may 
be a code-word for that. Per http://www.mexicoradio.tv.com ---

``620 XENK Radio 6.20 Audio Música de catálogo internacional. 50,000 
watts día, 5,000 watts noche desde San Andrés de la Cañada, [Estado 
de] México Grupo RASA.`` and the logo claims AM stereo. This signal 
should have been strong enough to audiblize that but my AM stereo 
radio is gathering dust. Website is simply the enviable 
http://www.620.com.mx Gaisma.com shows DF sunrise today as 1212 UT, 
later than I would have guessed, more than a semihour after Enid`s 
1135; but being further west and much further south accounts for it 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** COLOMBIA [non]. 1140, July 5 at 0216 UT on the caradio as we are 
parked awaiting the Enid fireworx show near Meadowlake Park, I am 
still trying to ID the Spanish gospel stuff I am hearing here if it`s 
not XEMR Monterrey, which isn`t supposed to be religious. A clear ID 
as ``Radio Esperanza 11-40 AM`` goes by, plus praise music in Spanish. 
Can`t wait to get home and google on that, which leads right to: 
Cartagena, Colombia. WRTH also lists that slogan for HJKO, 10 kW in 
Cartagena, and nothing else in Latin America on 1140. See 
http://www.radioesperanza1140.com/nosotros.html

Programación page shows a strange schedule, weekdays 1:30 am to 8:15 
or 8:30 pm [UT - 5 = 0530-0115/0130], except Fridays all night UT 
Saturdays, but quite a bit less on weekends; I assume it is 
incomplete. `Enfoque a la Familia` is at 0530, which should not be too 
hard to recognize if it`s still vigent. It would be nice to hear a 
call sign or Cartagena mentioned too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 
1624, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO [and non]. 1140, July 3 at 0554 I try again to identify the 
gospel-huxter in Spanish heard some weeks ago: discussion, ad? for a 
mariscos restaurán in Monterrey, so that`s certainly XEMR despite 
pattern maps showing null signal northward. Hardly dominant now and I 
soon catch a quite unexpected ID from CANADA, q.v. At 0600 noticias 
with a few-note jingle, but this was more from the SE, suspect CUBA; 
turning the DX-398 a bit, another Spanish is now religioning, XEMR? 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See COLOMBIA! And Tim above

** COLOMBIA [non!]. Re my recent report of HJKO, 1140, Cartagena, 
presumed since ID heard as ``Radio Esperanza`` --- NOT: Visiting Fort 
Stockton TX on his vacation trip along I-10 from San Diego to New 
Orleans and back, one of Tim Hall`s numerous logs in ABDX:

``1140, XEMR, NL, Monterrey, 6/17 2040 CDT, "Radio Esperanza". The 
original "Radio Esperanza" on 1140 is in Colombia, but their Facebook 
page confirms they are relayed on XEMR-1140. Also mentioned Grupo 
Radio Alegria.``

Yes, here it is:
http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=266943949986724&story_fbid=200297033427181
When I had sought XEMR Monterrey NL on its original website, there was 
nothing about this. Has it been converted into nothing but a relay of 
HJKO? How convenient, and confusing, that they are on same frequency 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1625, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1140, July 31 at 0511, hyper gospel huxter in Spanish, a 
real Jesus-freak, inviting phone calls with prayer requests, and 
putting them on the air, with overmod/distortion. Frequently gives 
numbers ``en cabina`` 83-75-50-51 y 83-75-50-55, one or the other of 
which is busy; 0514 mentions iglesia in Colonia del Prado. 

It`s now certain to be XEMR Monterrey, Radio Esperanza, and a *local* 
program, not relaying frequency- and namesake Cartagena, Colombia 
station. There are several Colonias del Prado in Mexico, top hit 
Monterrey, also Monclova, Reynosa, and in Costa Rica, and phone 
numbers lead directly to XEMR including
https://es-es.facebook.com/RadioEsperanza1140
http://es-es.facebook.com/pages/Centro-Cristiano-Cristo-es-la-Roca/116385445105010 

Meanwhile XEMR faded down a bit boosting a 72/minute SAH = 1.2 Hz with 
another Spanish station looping further west, altho that does not seem 
to fit for the 5 other XEs on 1140 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. 1650 Mexico City reactivated --- 1650 kHz México --- 
Nuevamente se escucha con muy buena presencia aquí en la Ciudad de 
México a "ZER Radio" en los 1650 kHz misma que, habíamos escuchado a 
fines de abril y que suspendió su emisión el 1 de mayo. Saludos 
(Julián Santiago D. de B., 0136 UT July 7, WORLD OF RADIO 1625, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

Really XEARZ is being heard again locally in the DF after more than 
two months off following a brief appearance in early May. Cantú linx 
to:
http://www.facebook.com/GrupoRadiofonicoZer
(Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1625, ibid.) 

** MEXICO. Hola Julián, ¿Se permanece en el aire esta vez la 1650? 
(Glenn to Julián Santiago Díez de Bonilla, DF, July 13, via DXLD)

Hola Glenn: Desde el día que informé "ZER Radio" ha estado al aire; 
ocasionalmente solo se escucha portadora para después presentar música 
instrumental e identificaciones. Saludos y un buen fin de semana, 
(Julián, July 14, WORLD OF RADIO 1626, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 515, August 2 at 0439, `PN` beacon on MCW, weak but clear and steady on my bathroom radio, Panasonic RF569-D, which I inherited from a late aunt, and was apparently made for Sears, a good little radio. Batteries are used only in power failures, so I checked and removed one of the four AAs before it had leaked very much. O yeah, PN is in Ponca City, not too far away. Heard it too on the DX-398 at 0512 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 930, July 22 at 1220 UT, WKY, OKC with hard-sell super-
hype ``La Indomable`` promos and ads, music; no English. Used to 
default to that foreign language for a pubaffs show on Sunday mornings 
only at 1200-1230, but could be just a summer break/vacation. The ads 
within it had continued to be in Spanish, weird. And I continue to be 
amused that this oh-so Spanish station banishing its long Okie legacy 
has calls made up mostly of letters lacking in Spanish. But at least 
they didn`t abolish the calls; someday it may revert to English (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

SPANISH UNDERSTOOD

Re OKLAHOMA: WKY 930 === BTW, why is ``La Indomable`` feminine? 
Adjectivally, it could just as easily be El Indomable, and WKY`s 
super-hype style is anything but feminine. As in many station names or 
slogans in Spanish, there is a missing `understood` word. In this case 
it may be ``La [emisora] Indomable`` or [estación], either of which 
mandates feminine adjective which has become a noun. Similar things 
happen in South America where a station name comes from a río 
(masculine), ``La Voz del [algo]``, even tho the name of the river may 
end in -a. Or it could be a cerro [masculine mountain peak] reference 
that is omitted. Cf. Grand Tetons [from French] – in Spanish, ``breast`` (seno) is masculine. Go figure (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 930, July 31 at 0521 UT, the indominable one 
[undominantable?], WKY OKC has conceded to the CCI, merely 
transmitting dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 550, July 20 at 1133 UT, tune-in to water trick magic ad 
(turn a bottle upside down and it doesn`t spill!), Los Angeles 21 
address (with a hard-G), same super-hokey announcer resumes narrating 
Chandu (sp?) The Magician, set in India. 1145 announces there will be 
a time change for the show Thursday February 3, to the evenings, 8 pm 
PST, 9 pm MST, ID as the Mutual-Don Lee Broadcasting System. It`s 
really an ep of `When Radio Was` outroed as from January 27, 1949, to 
be continued next week. This is no doubt our local KFRM Salina KS, a 
departure from its farmy format (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** U S A. 770, July 22 at 1221, weak but steady signal from ``The Talk 
Monster, KKOB``, Albuquerque NM, ads, medical infomercial. What 
happened to `Perspective` from ABC News, which used to air at 6-7 am 
MT Sundays? Website makes it very hard to find program schedule, not 
on the main menu but just above it inside an ad block:
http://www.770kkob.com/common/more.php?m=10&mode=schedule&r=1

Undated, still shows ABC`s `Perspective`. Does the show still exist? 
It used to be a must-listen for me when it presented long-form 
reports, just talking, à la BBC`s `From Our Own Correspondent` which 
has also been downsized. Then ABC dumbed down `Perspective` with 
tabloid stuff and worked in retreads of TV features. Yes, it`s still 
easily accessible with podcast archive and topic list for each at
http://abcnewsradioonline.com/perspective/

As for KKOB reception, July official sunrise and switch to non-
direxional is 1200 UT; August 1230. Winter is on the way! (Glenn 
Hauser, 100+ degree OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. UNIDENTIFIED. 1480, July 7 at 1109 UT and next few minutes, 
open carrier. The revived 1480 in Dallas, KBXD was supposed to be 
about ready to go by now, so maybe they are testing; otherwise, KQAM 
Wichita defaulting to dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

1480, re previous report of open carrier after 6 am CDT --- must have 
been KQAM Wichita, as inquiry to Jerry Kiefer, presumably mostly in 
Roswell NM, of the same company building KBXD in Dallas, drew this 
reply July 7:

``Good afternoon Glenn, To your questions, no and yes. Construction is 
underway, we are finished with adding the sixth tower to the array.  
Putting in the transmitter and phasor the next couple of weeks and 
hope to be emitting RF by the first of the month. 

I expect, barring QRM from 1460 in El Reno, you get a copy in OKC. 
Probably hear us chewing on Wichita a bit during critical hours, we'll 
have close to 300 kW towards you. Our plant is on the SE side of 
Dallas with the major lobe to the NNW.

On the calls, we tried to get K-BOX but the FM who has them wouldn't 
give us permission to use them on AM. The KBXD calls will follow the 
logo line of "Wonderful K-BOX in Dallas" sometime down the line.
Glenn, a question for you, how does 1440 do up your way? Thanks, 
Jerry``

Here in Enid, 500 watt KZUE El Reno on 1460 would be no problem at all 
for 1480, and doubt it would be in OKC either, tho there is a 1490 in 
Guthrie. 1440 from The Metroplex does very well here once any skywave 
kicks in, but not more than a trace on groundwave (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1590, July 15 at 0504 UT, trying for the WGBW bihour DX test 
from Wisconsin, I think I hear some Morse code, but very heavy QRM on 
1590, and from KATZ 1600 IBOC, always a problem on 1590 and moreso 
1610. Several other chex in next half-sesquihour, such as 0520-0524 
and finally 0552 were unproductive, with 1590 dominated by a sports-
talk station. However, Tom Jasinski, much closer in Joliet IL, 
reported WGBW to the IRCA list: ``At 0004 CDT WGBW noted with tone, 
code and EBS alert noise`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1680, July 20 at 1151 UT, ad for a bankruptcy lawyer in West 
Monroe, then ``the all-new NewsRadio 1680 AM``, rejoin national show 
`America`s Morning News` about the Aurora theatre massacre --- first I 
had heard about it. Faded at 1158, but amazingly fade back in for ID 
at 1159, ``KRJO, Monroe-West Monroe, Monroe`s Information Station`` 
from Louisiana. So no Old School music format any more (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1680, July 31 at 0506 UT, opening C2C ``on KMLB 540 and 
KMLB.com``. So KRJO Monroe LA not only has changed format from 
distinctive `Old School` music to talk, but also has become just an 
unacknowledged simulcaster of sister station at other end of dial. I 
imagine KMLB has local coverage problems at night vs XEWA et al. NRC 
AM Log shows U4 1000 watts at night, but STA for U1 65 watts, CP for 
26 watts! Much less competition and certainly 1 kW ND on 1680 (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 980, August 2 at 0506 UT, W & M rendering ``gracias a dios`` dominating frequency, then a 150/minute = 2.5 Hz SAH with a Coast-to-Coast outlet; Spanish loops close to due south, so I start looking at the Mexican listings: most likely would be XETU in Tampico, but none of the Mexicans have an obvious religion-only format; and this one is in Cantú`s by-frequency list, but no Tamaulipan at all on 980 in his by-state listings! So does that station exist, or not? 

O well, maybe it`s an American? Yes, here`s the likely one from the NRC-AM Log: SS:REL on KRTX, Rosenburg/Richmond/Pasadena, TX, just call it Houston! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1350, July 7 at 1202, CBS news, fade-out by 1204. Per 
NRC AM Log, two likeliest affiliates around here are KMAN Manhattan KS 
and KRNT Des Moines IA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
