Hey Kevin (and Paul);
In my original report I did say "must have been on day rig" albeit
without proof. The word "must" does have significance. "Must have been
on day rig" does NOT imply cheating, in itself. It could be an honest
mistake, faulty equipment, emergency or whatever. I do find it odd that
I have never logged them in 30 years and now I am 3 for 3 with them at
night, in the last week. I also doubt that it was propagation as cx to
the Mid South were normal, at best.
73,
Dave

Paul,
He is not saying they are cheating. He is asking a question.
"Are they "cheatin'"? I dunno but they seem very strong for an
apparent 1Kw station matched up against a local 5Kw station."
Yes, Paul, stations *DO* cheat. Its not the end of the world. Pull
your own radio out and try to see if you can hear them. This may be
your only chance. But as to David's post, he never said WPLN was
cheating.
Kevin
