I was wondering about KHOS too... although their license was
cancelled, there are still a lot of references to them on the net,
showing them on the air with religious content. It wouldn't be the
first time a deleted station remained on the air... one current
example is WJCC-1700, heard a few days ago by Chris Black. And I
think there's one in Michigan, but the call and frequency escape me
right now.
I wish I was close enough to join in the hunt!
