UNID AM 920
« on: December 29, 2022, 1558 UTC »
I don't have the specific time information handy, but from about 3 to 4 AM Eastern time this morning, I heard quite the battle on 920 khz. 

It seems that a Canadian station was fighting with a Spanish-language outlet and...I think a news-talk station...for that frequency.  The Canadian candidate MAY have been CKNX, or perhaps CFRY (I've heard the former before in this location, even at just 1,000 watts). 

As for the news-talk and Spanish-language stations, I'm not quite sure what they were (never caught a call sign...but the Spanish one seemed to be playing music in Spanish).  Perhaps WHJJ in Providence for the former?

Down here in PA that's usually what 920 sounds like every night, CKNX is the dominant signal but fights against a Spanish station that I've yet to ID.
