[IRCA] CKDO-1580 special heard in East Tennessee

[amdxmail@xxxxxxx]

I was paying some bills Saturday evening and put on a tape of the first 45 minutes of 1580 during CKDO's anniversary broadcast of two days earlier.
 
Nobody had reported any Morse code during the first hour, and I'd been listening live at that time anyway (on another receiver), but I figured "You taped, so listen to it".    Same ESPN station I'd heard before was dominant, as expected.  But then at what was approximately the 9:34 p.m. point of the tape, a 31-second period of code was heard, weak but plenty clear.  
 
What a surprise!  My first new domestic on 1580 since 1981 (and, except for a Cuban ticker that turned up there briefly in 1989, the first new one at all).  Thanks once again to Saul and the CKDO crew!
