More today

630 CHED, Edmonton, AB, N/T

880 CHQT, Edmonton, AB, N

and I tuned to 890 and heard an ID. At first I thought they said KBSU. It was pointed toward Boise so I thought this could be it. I realized I already have it and it must have been
890 KDXU, St. George, UT, N/T

Image

I remembered picking up an 890 from Boise (KDJQ) that broadcasted BSU stuff but that is no longer on the air according to Radiolocator and Wikipedia. It has been off air since June 8, 2008. I picked it up from Flag back in December 2006. What I heard has to be KDXU.

They were playing ESPN radio and I heard them mention Nevada and Utah.

Got 2 Stations today.

The first is 1680 KNTS, Seattle, Wa, Spanish. While I didn't get an ID, it was coming in fairly strong around 430 when the sun was up so I suspect it is Seattle even though there is a Spanish on 1680 in Fresno CA as well.

Image

The second is 1420 KIGO, St. Anthony, ID, Regional Hexican. Once again, No ID heard but it was coming in fairly strong and its the closest Spanish or Mexican by far.

Try for 800 XEROK. I'm guessing you should be able to get it as 800 is a clear freq. That would be your farthest south station so far if you hear it.
