instead of TOMBSing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, Apr 23 at 0600, no signal from this WRMI, must be
unusually off, since 9395 is S9+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1539.96 approx., Apr 23 at 0330 UT, pronounced het to 1540.0
KXEL or whatever; surely KGBC Galveston which is often, but not
always, so off-frequency. At 0332 I get a partial ID in Spanish
mentioning 105.3. Then I do the usual searches in the NRC AM Log, the
WTFDA FM Database, radio-locator, and even a broad websearch without
finding *any* correlation of those two frequencies in the USA or
Mexico in Spanish or even English. Finally I search the IRCA DX
Monitor archive, and there it is in the loggings of the Jan 18, 2025
issue: ``1540 KGBC TX, Galveston – 1/9 0701 [EST = 1201 UT] noted w/legal ID
with KTWI 105.3 Hempstead, TX and “Real Power 105.3” slogan IDs. No
other mentions of 1540 or KGBC; slogan IDs heard again at 2002, heard
in fades of KXEL. (RWK-IL) Rick Wiegmann Koshko (KO5HKO), Ottawa IL

WCKY 1530. (EB-MO) Eric Bueneman, (NØUIH), Hazelwood MO, General
Electric Superadio III, Terk Advantage loop`` Isn`t it about time the major references caught up with this? Hold it:
Per the WTFDA FM Database, KTWI-LP is on 94.3 in Liberal KS! The 105.3
in TX is really KTWL: hard to mistake L for I in a spoken ID. Could
station axually be announcing wrong call? It can happen, like with
K17JN in Enid visually calling itself K17JI. To add to confusion, two
pertinent entries, neither shown with any connexion to 1540- KGBC!: KTWL 105.3 TODD MISSION TX 8.0 8.0 148.0 148.0 30-20-20 95-55-45 4473
