AM Frequency of the Week: 680

From west Houston, KKYX is strong day and night. Nulling them at sunset/nighttime gets me KFEQ with a pretty good signal. Sometimes there's another station, maybe sports, but have never ID'd. I assume WMFS, but maybe WCNN as well?
 
I’m in San Angelo, Texas on business and pulled in a good signal from KNBR around 7:15 AM CDT. They were talking about the Giants and I heard an ID; KKYX was in the background, but took over entirely when they switched to their 50KW daytime signal.

KFI was also very strong out here this morning. That 200 miles makes a difference; every so often KFI makes it to Canyon Lake. Never have heard KNBR there.

I've never heard KNBR the times I've been in the Canyon Lake area, either. I also tried for it last year in Junction to no avail. The only time I've heard KNBR in Texas was when I was out west in Alpine a few years ago.

In October of 1997, I was in Bandera and had my 1979 GE Super Radio with me. KKYX has a tremendous null towards Bandera; one Saturday morning 680 was talking sports and I thought KKYX had a sports talk show on Saturday morning; what I could not understand is why they were talking about Cal and Stanford; turns out I had KNBR only 20 plus miles from the KKYX towers. KKYX flipped to the daytime signal shortly thereafter and Classic Country returned and KNBR was never heard in Bandera again.

I also pulled in KNX in San Angelo on Tuesday morning. I have pulled in KNX here in Canyon Lake, but it has been a few years.

Good to know. I’ll have to head out to Bandera some time to DX.
