WGH 1310 khz Newport News Va
« on: July 31, 2017, 1758 UTC »
Now back to 50s 60s 70s after decades of gospel. Once a top 40 giant on countless car radios.
Good to have it again.  20kw day , it sounds very good on the antiques. 5kw night , some of you may be able to log at night in the east. Most of the signal goes far out in the ocean however , but this covers a lot of people on the way.

Thanks WGH , I am ecstatic.

"You can hear us in Bermuda any night with a big signal, Mr. Johnson. That's six hundred miles!"
