Slight correction.  KOWB is DA-2, using 2 towers for day and 3 for night.  Their day pattern has changed from what it used to be.  Earlier on, it looked nearly omni except for a small null toward Denver to protect 1280, but now it looks much different, so maybe that change, whenever it took place, had something to do with it.

...and how it was resolved!

Back in January I complained about some really bad intermod and mixing caused by KOWB 1290 and KHAT 1210.

KOWB 1290 is owned by Townsquare and is 5KW Non D days, 1kw DA nights from about 1.6 miles away from me. KHAT is 1/4 mile away from them, owned by Appaloosa Broadcasting with 10kw Days Non D and 1kw Night DA.

I Was getting a really loud, nasty crunchy sounding KHAT on 1370 along with some some mixing of the two in general in a few other spots on the radio along with some crackly sounds on the dial. This occurred on my Icom Radio and big loop antenna at home but also some car radios further north and away from the tower site.

Thanks to some educated help from a certain local broadcast engineer we were able to reasonably determine it was KOWB causing the issue and it wasn't just my radio.

I emailed their regional engineering manager who said he'd look into it when he was at the station later that month. I didn't hear back from him.

Well, when KOWB's transmitter room got flooded from a burst pipe the problem went away completely. With them back on but at only 1kw on 1290, the problem has largely still disappeared

I followed up with the engineer today and he said hes been trying to tune out the problem and was working on it before the transmitter got ruined.

He says if he can't tune it out, Townsquare will have to purchase a filter. HE says in this case it was simply KHAT's signal getting into KOWB's transmitter and re-radting from one of their towers

Now I could get into Brasilia Kiwi SDR and there is no signal on 1160 kHz.

Thank you, Daniel. Looking forward to seeing your lists from 
neighbouring states.
BTW, do you know, if Brasilia 1160 kHz is also closed. Earlier Rádio 
Globo, then possibly Mix FM.

Daniel Wyllyans Nova Xavantina MT Brazil kirjoitti 9.11.2019 klo 11:28:

Yes Mauno, I say with 99 percent sure those on your list were "closed"
in AM migrated to FM. Some may decide to return bad warning here. I
will try to make more neighboring states list here Goiás, Pará,
amazonas, MS, ETC ... 73 DW

ARMENIA/IRAN   Persian IRAN INTERNATIONAL TV audio relay via
1395 kHz Yerevan Gavar site, and via
6210.000 even kHz, - probably also via Yerevan Gavar relay site
(and jammed-covered by IRIB Arabic Sirjan program on 6210.003 kHz). 

Confirms the station ID IRAN INTERNATIONAL, I heard at 21.02 UT 
on shortwave 6210 kHz at Kiwi SDR rx in Kuwait
with Kiwi SDR rx net at Kuwait

Between 00.30 and 01.00 UT I checked the IRAN INTERNATIONAL TV

against SW 6210 kHz, latter shortwave  signal was 39 seconds later than TV.

against MW 1395 kHz, latter mediumwave signal was 42 seconds later than TV.
S=9+30dB in Mauno's place in Finland.

Just to add to my previous message, the time I first came across this was
2025 UTC
What I think might be the audio of the London-based satellite TV station,
Iran International, is currently being heard on 1395 kHz (presumably a
relay via Gavar, Armenia?). Can anyone confirm it is them?
Good reception even in the UK.

re 6210 kHz,
Yes, underneath an UNKNOWN Persian / Farsi language program heard.

with Kiwi SDR net at Kuwait

IRAN  But also at 20.05 UT 6210 // 6060 kHz
and underneath another ?AR? program on 6210 kHz,
maybe from Saudi Arabia / UAE
or US/ISR AGM United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) origin ?
Before at 19.45 UT the IRIB signal on 6210 kHz
had short TX breaks for 1-2 seconds,
I guess to allow Iranian security forces a monitoring check
the presence of the clandestine program underneath.
TV news of today heard in German tv
that US foreign policy allow and justify the
land grab of Palestine territory from the 1967 war.

listened to on an online receiver in Doha, Qatar
