Brett, in addn to the stations I mentioned, there were several others fading
in/out that I could not ID, b/c I listened during one morning commute and
one evening commute, maybe a grand total of 45 minutes. Had I been home for
a day with a DA, I would have IDed easily a half-dozen more! // Back in the
60s, the Monroe, LA station was a common visitor here. And I heard KWMT
several times during sunset skip. Nothing beats an open channel! -Fred

 

 

I missed the period when they were off 540, although I don't know what new
possibilities might have come in here (I'm about 150 miles NNE of the
station); I have about 15 stations logged on 540, but KMLB would have been
nice to hear.
