Paul, It brings back memories on when I lived in Seward in the 60s. The old KIBH Seward was on 1340 with 250w. In 1964, the station was destroyed in the March 27th Quake. But KLAM (CLAM) was okay and on from 5:30 AM to 9:30 AM and 5PM to 10PM, Monday through Saturday, off Sunday. Their ground wave signal at over 125 miles, over water was pretty good in those days. I even got a QSL letter from them. Long before there was a station in Valdez.
