Last logged @ this QTH 8-24-20, sounded weak (usually big sigs hr).

WMAC AM 940 Macon GA "News Talk 940" 10kw @1025Z
Never heard this one before but WWJ AM 950 presently has its digital turned off which uncovers the adjacent channels.
They normally beam 10kw away from me at night but they had a really huge signal in here this morning...
makes me wonder if perhaps they were running their full 50kw omnidirectional signal given the current national
situation as well as all the severe WX throughout the South...
unusual combination of events for AM BCB DXing.

A real jumble in here this morning with several stations in and out around sunrise about 1100Z:
WPRR MI with political blather
KRJO LA urban sound
Also heard a gospel station, probably WOKB FL and a Mexican format probably WTTM NJ.

WHBY AM 1150 Kimberly WI @1030Z 25kw
moderate signal with some QSB... ads sounded like directed to a farm audience
new one for me, 1150 usually occupied by a couple of much closer OH stations
or CKOC Hamilton ON
although WHBY runs 25kw at night, their pattern is directed mostly NE away from me,
they faded out by 1100Z replaced by WCUE in OH

heard this one this morning in the null of WTMJ
they call themselves "Joy 620"... moderately strong sigs, no QSB
the nighttime 4 tower pattern is an interesting flower shape with one of the lobes pointed my way

solid sigs into Michigan 1000-1030Z, no QSB, sounds like an urban Gospel format
was listening on 1700 to a faint Mexican format station trying to get an ID (KKLF ?)
when suddenly WEUP came booming in crushing the Mex and a local TIS

sports talker... "... Tom Brady... blah, blah, blah, Tom Brady... blah, blah..."
good sigs into Michigan 1000Z with occasional deep QSB
a C&W in and out the background along with an oldies,
the oldies station did not match the KZQZ St. Louis online stream,
both of them are unid for now

Been hearing a C&W format station lately on 880 under 50kw WCBS NYC predawn
on the car radio. In the shack this morning was able to null the NYC station and briefly catch
the C&W station as it faded in and out... difficult to ID but fairly certain 10kw CKLQ Brandon MB Canada.

nulled out the digital sideband hash from 50kw local WXYT
and heard several stations in the mix... WNAM briefly rode to
the top with what sounded like a "best oldies" format
before going back into the mud with a sports talker
(perhaps WHTK Rochester NY) and a couple of others...
surprised to hear the WI station as they beam away to the
north at night

"The Big 920" NBC Sports Radio with an outdoors show
from the Milwaukee Muskie Expo @ 1400Z.
Didn't know Muskie fishing was big in Milwaukee and
also surprised to hear them with a nice signal in the
digital sideband of 50kw local WFDF 910. Never heard
anything on 920 before due to the digital noise from the
adjacent channel.

"Just Right Radio", sounding like a 60s-70s Oldies format.
Weak but readable signal, lucky to hear them at all as
they beam away from me at night.

Been chasing this one the past couple of mornings,
got lucky and was able to pull it out of the muddle.
Vermont is elusive here in Michigan and this frequency is usually
covered here by WTMJ in Milwaukee.
