WWL 870 AM 0318 UTC 29 Feb 2020

I logged this one as "tentative" a month ago, but no doubt about hearing WWL on Friday night.

I tuned in and heard an LSU-Texas college baseball game in the eighth inning with the play-by-play clearly peaking every three minutes or so in between play-by-play of the Tri-City Americans WHL hockey game on KFLD. The broadcast matched the online stream, albeit slightly delayed, when I checked. After 0330 UTC, KFLD was mostly dominating the frequency, with just occasional faint music from CFBV, though the LSU baseball game was audible again at 0339 UTC.

The distance between me and the WWL transmitter is exactly 2,100 miles.
