** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 101.5, Sept 8 circa 1820 UT on caradio around Enid, seems to be slight quieting but no Spanish; no stereo pilot either, so if KOCD Okeene, either turned off $ or just too weak to fire. Later circa 1830 at a certain sweet spot, getting JBA Spanish talk show about finances, more likely KSMM Liberal KS than religious KOCD?
No, it isn`t: KSMM format is regional Mexmx and even sort of a program sked on website: ``12 PM – 4 PM Monday - Friday Erica Majalca ”La Manzanita" Join “La Manzanita/The Little Apple” as she presents la música del pueblo: banda, corridos, rancheras, cumbias, pop, romanticas and unforgettable classics every afternoon`` So back to KOCD? Website has no specific program sked, https://salvacionradionetwork.org/ but ``something for everyone`` and this revelation!: ``The History of Our Station / La Historia de Nuestra Estacion Radio Salvacion esta en el aire desde el año 2001, transmitiendo por el 1220 AM, y 890 AM. KWDW-LP 93.9 comenzó a transmitir en las ondas de LPFM en Agosto del 2014. Dejo de transmitir en Enero 2023. KOCD 101.5FM comenzó a transmitir como Salvacion Radio Network en Noviembre 2018. Termino de transmitir en Enero 2023`` Sic, sporadically accented. Sez both 101.5 and its primary on 93.9 went off the air in January 2023. So what were we hearing since then but not recently? KOCD 101.5 transmitter might have been on air anyway for test or oversight, or even being sold off. Hmmm, there is another Okie in Spanish I had not previously considered, just north of Tulsa, a lot closer than Liberal KS, but a lot weaker.
