It must be nice to hear KICY and KNOM. I get Mexicali on 850 in the KOA null, and either WBBM or KAZM on 780. Ugh! I stood out on the patio with Mr. Grundig in hand, hoping for DX wonderfulness, but all I got was cold.

Hey Doug -
They would definitely like to hear the recording. Send 'em an mp3 or
wav to the contact address listed on their web page.
I'm jealous :-). When I had KNOM with KKOH off, I didn't log enough
ID'able info to QSL 'em.
I had KICY early last night (between 2200-2300 PT) but didn't note
KKOH off at that time so didn't try for KNOM again.
