I'm pretty sure KCTA only runs a half hour of Spanish programming each morning at 6am CT. It's the “Galvan Revival Church” program as listed at https://kctaradio.com/blog/weekday-schedule/ I often hear that program from KCTA on my Border Inn DXpeditions, as KCTA signs on at (or before?) WBZ FCC sunrise time, which is 1100 UT / 6am CT in October when I make my recordings. As for KCWJ, it might be worth comparing your signal to Radio Aliento del Cielo here: https://alientodelcielo.com/ KCWJ was reported as both Radio Aliento del Cielo (//KKLO-1410 and a 92.7 FM in Lenexa) and Radio Vida around the same time a few years ago. I wasn't sure which report was correct, and I haven't heard KCWJ much since. HTH, Tim Hall`` Mauno Ritola via abdx.org: ``MW list has Aliento del Cielo Radio for KCWJ: https://alientodelcielo.com/ 73, Mauno`` Before seeing those, I listened again to 1030, March 20 straight thru from 0510 to 0620 UT: Still, no announcements whatever, just praise music in Spanish; could have inserted ToH ID at 0603 between songs or 0608; does FCC ever cite stations for such repeated minor? infraxions? I also checked the Radio Vida webstream which radio-locator.com thinx applies to KCWJ, but it was talk part of the time, and different music part of the time. So obviously KCWJ is not (any longer?) with Radio Vida, explaining my obs. I also DFed it as NE/SW which fits well for Kansas City area. Anyhow the music is nice and harmonious; fortunately I am much more fluent in Spanish spoken than sung, so could enjoy the music pro arte without being distracted by the no doubt nonsensical lyrix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1280, March 20 at 0629 UT, ``Newsradio KYRO,` back to `Red Eye Radio`. That`s U1 660/45 watts at Troy MO, address in St Louis. Bet they were on huge day instead of night power. Radio-locator shows address in Moscow Mills, which is just SE of Troy and site is further NW of Troy halfway to Silex; also near Wentzville, home of WA0RCR, all of which NW of St Louis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1510 kHz, March 20 at 0631 UT, WLAC Nashville still getting equal-level QRM from KCTE, and now also logged elsewhere: ``Terry L Krueger via groups.io, Boggy, Florida Occidental, IC-R75, NRD-535, ICF-7600GR, Tescun PL-360, active loop, random fence-stapled wire, misc. junk: 1510, MISSOURI, KCTE, Independence, 1035, 13 MAR 2025.
