Re: [IRCA] Arabic? on 1430 - not CHKT



WEEF tx is about 15-20 miles from here and they run low power at night and 
to be honest, I cannot get them at night and am unsure if they are on at 
night. Anyhow..most certainly not WEEF.

73 KAZ wishing you'd brought this up in Feb as perhaps someone has changed 
overnight formats by now
