As it happens, I picked 960 for overnight recording, and KLTF was very 
prominent at midnight EDT, though I didn't notice them on subsequent 
TOHs.  It does seem like they're pushing the envelope a bit - I don't 
think 38 W would do that well at a 893 mile distance on a crowded 
channel like 960.

KLTF was unneeded here, but happily, I snagged my real quarry at 0300, 
with a nice clear ID from KMA-IA.  Getting a new "K" call in the log 
is always a thrill, and it's doubly so when it's a 3-letter heritage 
call... and with KGA logged earlier in the evening, that's two in one 
night!  Add to that a third newie from last night, KNZZ, and I'm a 
happy camper today.  :-)
