Re: [IRCA] 1390 kHz - odd noise



Playing back a
recording of Saturday the 25th at 5 pm and the "didgeridoo" sound is on both 1370 and 1390 as
Barry suggested.


And I can hear the same thing right now live at 9:17 p.m. from my
location in the middle of Toronto.


And on 1380 WABH **does** seem to be unusually strong for 450
watts at night.

I'm in downtown Toronto and hearing this on both 1370 and 1390. WABH and CKPC are regulars here on 1380. CKPC certainly the dominant one. Bath NY and Fort Wayne might tie for 2nd place, and to a lesser extent New York City. In terms of regulars.
