Good catch, Daniel.
That station puts out a big signal at night for only 1 kw.

Yes, I can easily catch WPTX in Flint at night. Generally around sunset until around 2AM local time, when WVON starts coming in better. Later still, if I stay up that late, the stations in Colorado and California make their way here sometimes.
