Without looking at the FCC record, it's probably a PSSA and then a Critical

I'm not Todd but we know each other & I'm closer (within 25 miles) of
KYMN-1080. I don't know all the specifics, but I'm told they use multiple

as low as 11 watts. They have to reduce power more than once during PSSA

In case they're off again tonight, I'll try to aim a bit more towards the NW
and away from WKJK, even if it means more KYW slop, and see
WTIC was noted signing off 2307+ but was back by 0030, and seemed to be on and
off at various TOH and BOH recordings afterward. Seemed to be lower than normal
power still. Only WKJK-KY heard when WTIC off during the 2330 and
recordings. I'm somewhat limited by having to null the slop from K
Todd,
How strong is their PSSA and are you sure that they don't sometimes use full
day power for Twins games since they are so strong here in NE IL?
