Now to try a clear channel frequency, 710.
In Seattle it's KIRO, the 50kw sports blowtorch. KFIA Carmichael, CA will pop in from time to time winter sunset, and during the month of March I had a tentative Cuba under KIRO w/ salsa music. STILL haven't IDed. Need a phaser, then I have to try 5025 and see if it matches.
Also, if you live in the nulls of most 710s (pretty much anywhere S of KXMR, W of KCMO, and out of KGNC's area), what do you get? Is it quiet, or is there an IDed signal you've caught that's faint?

Through The Static. Through The Noise. There's a station somewhere.

I think 710 is KSPN Los Angeles. KIRO and KSPN are both ESPN. HOWEVER...I have caught both WBAP 820 and KRLD 1080 here.

I'm about 25 miles northwest of WGN's stick, so it's usually splatter. However, nulling WGN usually produces WOR. I've also gotten Kansas City (as WHB and later KCMO), KEEL and KGNC. The latter two on day pattern.

WOR can come in like a local, however the Cubans do put up a fight, at times coming on top...even up here.  ~BG |

In the daytime, depending on the radio and the antenna, I could get WOR, here in northern VA, at night, it's signal is good and reliable, sometimes combined with the Cuban 710. During my recent trip to western North Carolina I heard more Cuban than WOR at night.

KSPN day and night here. I may have heard something else at night as well but I can't remember what it was.

In LA, KSPN takes over 24/7. I don't think I've heard anything else under KSPN...
