KTWO 1030 0430 UTC 17 October 2019
« on: October 17, 2019, 0610 UTC »
Both this evening and the previous one, while driving in Lake Stevens and Marysville, Washington, during local night, KTWO out of Casper, Wyoming, was dominating the frequency. Tonight, I heard Glenn Beck's show and then a news break mentioning where Wyoming ranks in gender pay equity.

It was completely obliterating KMAS out of Shelton, Washington, which reportedly runs with just 1,000 watts at night. KTWO used to be a near-nightly station here, but has sometimes gotten lost in the noise more often in recent years.

Glenn Hauser reported last week that KTWO is being heard more often in the Eastern U.S. these days, possibly because it's not running its directional pattern that's supposed to protect Boston's WBZ.
