For the record, I checked a few other Alaskan freqs

620 was mostly CKRM with KPOJ in the background
780 had easy listening music that was likely KNOM, and certainly not 
KKOH unless it's changed format
850 was mostly KOA o/KHHO (in all cases I was on the northwest lobe of 
the K9AY)

I've been having trouble hearing JOUB lately but I'm much closer to 
KTTH-770.  The opposite seems to be true for JOAB-693 - it's much easier 
for me since you guys are closer to CBU.  Plus I'm in CBUs null and 
you're in their main lobe (or close to it).

> Bruce, thanks for reminding me not to forget about the Alaskans.  Sure enough at 13:00, KFQD is totally dominating 750 at excellent strength.  I didn't hear anything except CISL on 650, but 850 has Nome at good strength (first of the season that I've heard them).  I'm sure there are plenty more Alaskans to hear as well.  As far as TPs, definitely down compared to yesterday which was simply excellent.  Both 1575 and 1566 there, but a bit weaker.  774 NHK2 very strong, though, just not quite at local level.  Haven't had a chance to check anything else yet.  I think I'll have a look for Alaskans first!  ...Walt
