Sounds good to me - I'm getting the late-night munchies right about now!

Radio-locator is notoriously inaccurate about certain things, and this 
is apparently one of them. Anything with call letters that start with 
"C" should also be taken with a grain of salt at that site. They have 
pretty coverage maps, at least, and if you know their limitations, 
they're actually fairly useful. But, no, there's no carrier current on 
1450, just KBPS being leased out to "KPSU" for part of the day.

I'm looking forward to hearing it on the way over to Seaside this fall!
