Post by: East Troy Don on June 04, 2019, 0509 UTC

1270 KHZ @ 0456 UTC (2356 CDT local) with Y/L Hosting a syndicated talk format.
ID at 0500 followed by a news block.   Strong, steady signal.  Rather rare to hook this one as  TX pattern is straight north away from my QTH

SINPO: 4-4-3-4-4
NITE POWER:  5 KW
TX<>RX:   195 miles

OK
They have a non-directional 27 kw daytime signal.
The tower is located west of Lake Charlevoix nearly to Lake Michigan.
Thought perhaps given those conditions you may have been able to
hear a signal (probably weak) during the day.
