Re: [IRCA] DX Tips for WDXR

[Mike Sanburn <mikesanburn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not to admit that I've been DXing for decades but I first heard Billings 970 here while they were still KOOK. What a neat thing it was two months ago at the IRCA convention to be inside the same room that once housed that station (during the KTVQ TV tour). In later years the 970 station in Modesto CA picked up the KOOK call letters (I'm sure that didn't confuse anybody, hi). Nice going on KFYR. I have 3 North Dakota stations logged in SoCal so far. 1100.  1130   And 1550 before KQWB moved to X band. 550 here is mostly dominated by Bakersfield and Phoenix but occasionally KOAC or KRAI might make an appearance.

I could not figure out who this was, as nothing matched. Thx to Mike Sanburn and Paul Walker for figuring out KBUL runs old rock on Saturday night. It is not listed in the NRC log, QRM KTTO and KUFO, etc. Hrd from 0040 to 0055 EST 11/16. Billings 970 is rare here. 790 is a regular.
