KCJJ 1630 khz 0959 UTC 28 Aug 2019

Here's a new one for me...KCJJ out of Iowa City, IA (via Elida, OH).

A quick look at Wikipedia tells me that this station transmits with ten thousand watts during the day, and one thousand watts at night.  The city of Elida OH is apparently four hundred and twenty-eight miles from Iowa City. 

Oh, and one more thing...the station was playing The B-52's when I caught it....epic cool!! :)

"The Mighty 1630",  big signal in here most nights.
Can occasionally get WRDW in GA in the null of KCJJ.
If the skip is right, KRND from WY with a MEX format
will stomp on the IA station.

on the car radio... sounded like a local.
