Re: [IRCA] KKXA 1520 / 1170 with India music

Hi Bill,

1170-KLOK in San Jose, CA plays a Punjabi music format, and has tripped 
up many TP-DXers who thought that they had something very exotic.

Checking in on KKXA 1520
 once in a while and a few days ago I heard sports and thought they 
were finally
on the air with a format. This sports show did not parallel that of 
KRKO 1380 so
I guess they were tapping from a network.The next day they were back to 
their
usual Radio Song loop which must be driving some people up the wall by 
now. Any
idea when all this testing will be finished and when they finally start
programming of some kind and are they leaving any clues about what the 
format
will be? Their daytime signal is fairly strong here in Victoria and 
will just
reach Nanaimo BC with a trace of audio.
At 01:30 I tuned in to 1170 and I'm hearing Hindi or Punjabi music 
under semi
local 24hr KPUG Bellingham Wa. If there are no ethnic format 
stations south of
49 and west of the Mississippi then I think I'm probably catching KJNP 
out of
North Pole AK for the first time.. I can't locate a streaming audio 
link from
their web home page so verification isn't possible. If anyone out there 
can come
up with alternatives then please let me know.Bill in BC
