**Pat Martin - Rancho Mirage CA - mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx

I was listening to 1230 kHz tonight just before Midnight PST and I heard 
a station looped East / West with a MST time check. They went into Net 
news (CNN or ABC?).ID'd as "KEYK" or KEIK"  KEDK" etc. with a fade after 
that. It was mixing with KTHR- Gallup  NM. Has someone changed calls?   
The last K is really strong, but uncentain of the middle letters. Any 
idea? Thanks.  This was heard from Rancho Mirage  CA.
