On the Ultralight DX radio list, Rob, VA3SW, mentioned that WQEW, 1560 kc in New York City was sold and has been off the air this week, so I began monitoring 1560 to hear what I could hear.
I heard nothing much on the radios at home the past two evenings, but Thursday morning during my dawn commute, I heard a very weak station playing gospel music on 1560, but it was too weak to identify.
This morning, listening to nothing on 1560 while sitting at a traffic light at 7 AM, gospel station WSBV signed on loud and clear (S-7 signal) with the Star Spangled Banner out of South Boston, Virginia, transmitting 2.5 kW, 464 miles to my southwest.
