Re: [IRCA] 1040 unID HELP - ATTN DX'ers in the South and Southeast! + Two new logs

["Paul B. Walker, Jr." <walkerbroadcasting@xxxxxxxxx>]

"Rocky 1420" WKSR is an interesting station, kinda rock-ish music, last i
listened, not alot of commercials, theyre mroe about the music. "Rocky 1420"
is also on the DH2 of WKSR-FM 98.3

They have a website at http://www.wksr.com/ and if you click on Listen Now,
you can hear both stations live, and as we all know, a live webstream is
good to use and compare against what you think you're hearing on the AM
dials

Rocky 1420 WKSR's imaging is somewhat unique, so it should be easy to spot.

And I suspect your 1040 is WPBS with a blistering 50KW Day and 5KW Critical.
