870 Weirdness 19 Nov 2013
« on: November 19, 2013, 2240 UTC »
At around 2210, I noticed a station on 870, but only the LSB was visible in the waterfall (or audible). They were playing bluegrass music. My guess was WPWT, TN based on the programming. But LSB only?

A few minutes later, they got buried by IBOC from 880.  Now hearing some talk radio on the 870 USB, maybe WWL, no ID yet.

Any guesses? I'll have to try again tomorrow.

WWL normally dominates the frequency here.  They are frequent ID'ers, so you should catch an ID with a little persistence.
