Paul: You are correct, this is not likely to be WRNJ. I live 26 miles from Hackettstown and can't hear them here. They run a 10 Watt translator on 92.7 in Washington Boro, NJ which is 22 miles from here and which I do hear perfectly.
Their ID is generally with a male announcer "Oldies 1510 WRNJ" and they often throw in "Thank you for listening to your local radio station." They do have a singing weather jingle which is simply "WRNJ Weather" with women singers. That was the pattern tonight at the time you mentioned along with a string of local ads. At 2235 they aired a singing jingle simply "WRNJ" with women singers. Their music tends toward the sixties-seventies. I hope this narrows down your search a little. For what it is worth, I read today that over 400 AM stations now run FM translators. 73, Mike Hunter W2MHZ Neshanic Station, NJ -----Original Message----- From: amdx-boun...@lists.wtfda.info [mailto:amdx-boun...@lists.wtfda.info] On Behalf Of HASCALL, DAVID CIV DFAS Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2010 2:17 PM To: Paul B.

It did not seem to match NJ's stream, so could be Wabash, IN, or Ohio on late, or maybe a recent format change. I really cannot believe that others are not hearing this. I solved an unID on 830 in 2009 by Googling it and found that a station in Cortland, Ohio had been on late for months but I did not see where others were hearing it. Maybe you, Kaz and John Rieger are the only folks that read my posts, LOL. Here are the "W" "oldies / rockers" from Barry's list. 1510 WJOT WABASH IN 250 ----- NDA OLDIES //FM OLDIES 106 EX-WAYT 1510 WRNJ HACKETTSTOWN NJ 2000 230 DA-N OLDIES OLDIES 1510 EX-1000 CH: 1100 W 1510 WLGN LOGAN OH 1000 ----- NDA OLDIES TIMELESS FAVORITES 1510 WQUL WOODRUFF SC 1000 ----- NDA OLDIES WOODRUFF RADIO EX-WSJW/WJKI/WDRF 73, Dave -----Original Message----- From: Paul B.

If this "mystery" station is still on at night and you want to compare to what I have heard, it should be easy. At :27 and :57, I seem to hear a female singing the calls (seemingly every hour) and at about :15, I hear a male saying something like "AM 15-10 xxxx." I never hear what I would call a LID with city / state. Thanks, you all! 73, Dave in Indy PS: Can someone "crosspost" to the NRC and see if anyone there has been hearing it? I fired up the Globaltuner receiver "SE Wisconsin" and could hear it there, too, under WLAC. dh ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2010 08:59:10 -0600 (GMT-06:00) From: neilkaz <neil...@earthlink.net> To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America <irca@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: Re: [IRCA] Message-ID: <1571756.1290697151509.javamail.r...@elwamui-hybrid.atl.sa.earthlink.net > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Dave, I still think that you may be hearing KMSD. They are definately more oldies than classic rock. I should be DXing this weekend (sick now so haven't gone out to DX this week and noting no one is exited about cx) and can usually hear them if you want to compare notes. 73 KAZ Barrington IL -----Original Message----- >From: "Paul B.

I checked our logs, and I don't have any of those songs listed as being played last night. Thanks for the email, though and have a great Thanksgiving.

Hello; I am a DX'er from Indianapolis, Indiana. A DX'er is one who tries to hear and log distant radio stations. Last night I *think* that I may have heard your station. It was just after midnight EST (just after 11 PM CST - your time) and I heard Oldies music. The station was very hard to hear as the station from Nashville was much stronger. Can you check to see if your station played "Let Your Love Flow" by the Bellamy Brothers, followed by "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye" by the Casino's. I believe those songs were played around 11:10 PM CST. I also heard "Bridge Over Troubled Water" later by Simon and Garfunkel, at about 11:20 CST. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.
