WRMI 9395//9455 kHz AM 2242 UTC 13 Sep 2017

9455 seems like its coming in better than usual and 9395 is vastly weaker, pretty much a hair above noise level and dips into the noise.

From what was posted on Facebook last night, they're only running 100 watts on 9395 right now, instead of 100 kilowatts. 9455 I'm assuming is back on at full power but might be on a different antenna because i can actually hear and listen to it now, usually it's unlistenable and down below the noise.

I wish they'd be on a freq with the music somewhere 9500-9990 kHz so I can listen in the car. For some reason, the receiver only goes down to 9500 in the 31m band.
