Re: [IRCA] KNSA 930 AK

I did indeed hear KNSA when KTKN had problems with its satellite feed, 
but only IDed it by paralleling with KDLG-670 (KNSA KIAL-1450 & KSDP-830 
relay KDLG at night).  That was a lucky break, to be sure.

Here in the lower 48 KNSA would be even tougher, thanks to all the 
domestic QRM.  Good luck, your best hope may be to listen for something 
// with 670.  KDLG often plays what can best be described as gothic 
chainsaw rock music at night, which would be distinctive and able to 
poke through the QRM.
