Hmmm.DX bad, service good! The people there need it more than the DXers do.
I noticed earlier that KTAR was dominant on 620...its usually KPOJ. 1000 had
Mexican breaking into KOMO pretty well at times. KPNW owned 1120. KSCO was
stronger than usual on 1080, going up against KRLD.
Doug,
That would be my best guess. I haven't been listening tonight, but they do
make it in here when Tijuana is willing to allow it.
