They are the big signal in here at night when ethnic format WNZK goes to 680.
Other than CKGM have only heard one other station on 690... managed to pull
WELD "Your Hits are Here" in WV out from under the Montreal station early one
morning last December.  WELD only runs 14 watts at night but perhaps caught
them on a PSRA.
Das Radiobunker somewhere in Michigan
