Saul, your second and third clips, from 16 Dec, are WJIM.

Subject: [IRCA] 1240 unID - WJMA/WJNA now heard three times!

I continue to be stumped by what's become a repeated, three-time unID on
1240. Each time, it sounds like WJNA or WJMH, or something akin to that. The
closts calls I can find are WJMC in Rice Lake WI, a location which makes
sense for this time. But the last letter really does not - to me at least -
sound like a C either time. It sounds to me like A. Or perhaps H.

 The first time I posted from a Dec 5 reception five of you responded:

 Barry McLarnon wrote: "I agree it sounds like WJMH or WJMA, and is that
another call given just after it, something like WADW?  All of which sheds
no light whatsoever on the mystery."

Paul Walker wrote: "Thing is, it doesn't sound like WJMC or WJMH or WJMA...
but WJMC is the closest sound alike to what i heard and searching all 1240's
and sorting by call letters, it's the most likely."

George Sherman wrote: "I listened to the recording & am 100% positive they
are saying WJMC (Rice Lake, WI), which is heard here all day."

Problem is, my ears simply can't hear a C at the end. However, since Dec 5 I
have had two more receptions, both on Dec 16 but at different times. Each
time, the last letter sounded to me like A. So I'm putting this out here one
more time before I check into the DX den with the pink padded walls.

 John in CO wrote suggesting WJLX in Jasper AL (it sounded to him like
WJLS). Russ Edmunds wrote that it sounded like WJLE. I can hear WJLE if I
try... especially the L. But nothing checks out in the way of listed
stations.

 So now that I have two extra clips, three in total, to work with, I'm
posting all in one place for those who want to give this ongoing mystery a
spin. 

Three audio clips online at:

Maybe it's my ears, maybe it's a recent call change, maybe...

 With thanks,
