Re: [IRCA] [AMFMTVDX] KXTO Test Results 7/15

My hunch is the Spanish music is Smyrna GA. I didn't DX AM last night 
because we had thunderstorms rolling through all night long. I'd love to 
have this one test during the winter, because I think it could poke throug 
and be an awesome catch. Still, I am grateful that it has happened, in any 
event. Thanks to all for this opportunity.
