Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] 1520 NY off, more on 1710 TIS testing, good SRS/SSS

They had multiple transmitters licensed, so I would say that is a reasonable conclusion.
I've not heard the one testing yet, mmostly for lack of trying.

 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.
