[IRCA] 1520 NY off, more on 1710 TIS testing, good SRS/SSS

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1520 WWKB Buffalo seems to be off. Solid K-Love ()Ohio) here. Aaron in Philly has posted an alert to this effect on the BCB logger, which triggered my check here. (Thanks). 

Separately, the TIS testing, which is almost certainly the Hudson County NJ TIS working on its new 100-watt system,seems to be running a loop without an actual ID. The actual current TIS (at lower power) seems to be running its own various announcements, and the two appear very much to be ***mixing***. I am inclined, if this can be confirmed, to count this as two separate stations. I can only wonder if they are running two transmitters from a single location or vicinity...

Was a banner day for DX here. Pre-sunrise netted rare relogs: 570 WNAX SD, 580 WIBW KS, 610 KDAL MN, 630 St. Louis MO. Very good at the lower end, and higher than 800 you wouldn't have a clue anything was going on. This evening, post-local sunset, I nabbed much-wanted KBHB Sturgis SD on 810 with announcements about classic car and collectible auctions and such in and around SD. Notable relogs included 1090 Excelsior Springs MO, and it helps that 1080 WTIC has turned OFF it's IBOC.
