At 9:30 PM on November 21st, I heard a station at AM 1000 that was playing "Don't Know Why" by Norah Jones. This was heard very faint under WMVP-Chicago during a very brief period of dead air on that station.

I also heard an oldies station at 1680 around 9:45 this evening.

Anybody know about these stations?<P ID="signature">______________

CKBW in Nova Scotia seems like the only logical choice. Nice catch if that was it.

Has to be the stunting WTTM.

Yeah, I've been hearing 'TTM lately too. I only knew it was them because of a legal ID, otherwise I would have been lost.

If that was CKBW, Lawppy, nice job.<P ID="signature">______________

It was very weak and underneath dead air from WMVP. I would definitely say that I got lucky with this one.

AM DX... What FM DX'ers do during winter dead-band season. :)<P ID="signature">______________

I second that one. Maybe if I had an AM receiver with a digital tuner and 10khz spacing, I'd think differently, but I don't, so I prefer FM and TV.

The FM/TV season doesn't seem to be over yet. I caught WMGP-98.1 "Magic 98" in Hogansville, GA between two locals this morning. I also got a Fox 54 last night, but have no idea whether it was Huntsville or Columbus (almost certainly the latter, maybe it'll come tonight, too.)

Could this be one of those years with a second season?

Could very well be. Even with the winter weather, the ionosphere still seems to be pretty active.

Post 987 dedicated to WSMW, Greensboro; currently "98-7 Simon". Earlier this year it was "98-7 The Zone". Prior to that (by only about a year and a half), it was "98-7 The Point". Prior to that it was a country station, and prior to that it was a CHR. The station has a history of failures. Which is why I love to point them out all the time :)<P ID="signature">______________

Good one! Lawppytown! I kind of like the sound of that. For any of you outsiders looking in, 98.5 WNWN is from Coldwater, MI (my home base) as dubbed by J.C. as 'Lawppytown' :)

I'm having second thoughts on FM as well.

This morning, WKHQ 105.9, WLDR 101.9 and WKLZ 98.9 from Northern Michigan were all in. WKHQ was in with a good signal for about two minutes!

Post #151 is dedicated to 1510 WLAC and everybody in here who has actually read one of my threads.
