Big 121, I'm actually regularly hearing KEZY from San Bernardino on 1240 after sunset, confirmed by parallel of 1130 KSDO. i haven't yet pisitively ID'd KJAA.

And, if I combine a Select-A-Tenna and utility groundwire, I can hear KEZY around midday from a couple miles south of El Cajon.

I seem to remember you're in Lakeside and have a PR-D5 or similar radio, right? How close are you to the KECR/KCBQ transmitter, and how well can you hear 900 KALI, 920 XESDA/KPSI, 1160 XEQIN and 1180 KERN in the midday? All (except 900 but that was before their CP) have been heard here with 910 and 1170 off in the past, and with 900's new CP active (I heard them in Cameron Corners a month or two ago) they should be a lot easier.

I'm in the near field of 910/1170, and 1130. No 'dx' next to those channels.
With KNSN off, KXO is quite enjoyable, with an impressive oldies playlist. KJAA is a regular at night now.
Will Crawford install HD?
That tower is an oddball, over 1/2 wavelength high, but only 26 ohms resistive instead of a nominal 75 or so. It's always had sideband issues
that had to be dealt with, and adding digital sidecarriers may prove to be interesting.
Meanwhile, Jaime Bonilla Veldez' co/located 1040 is finally generating some cash flow via Radio Catolica.
 
After a short on air test on Saturday around 3:15 pm , KNSN has signed on. (Thanks, buddy.) It is at this time using the KBRT audio
via satellite feed.
Yes, the audio has a good clean sound.. unlike 740.
