I just IDed it as KALL in Utah. Of course last night's could have been the WA station.It has been a very long while since I logged a new station, so let's hope it's the start of a trend!ÂPhil Bytheway

Phil,
There is a good chance your unid 700 was the Spokane station. It is a pest here nightly. Great to hear you are back at the dials.
