KLSY- heard in Warm Springs, OR

Coming back from a short vacation last week I was playing with the radio in the car along Highway 26 between the Warm Springs Reservation and Government Camp (this is all east of Portland). For a few minutes I clearly was receiving KLSY 93.7 from whatever South Sound site they are using at the moment. Clear stereo reception and strong enough to show the KLSY ID in the RDS window, along with the Spanish religious music that they format. I was very surprised; I thought that some other station programmed in the KLSY call to their RDS or maybe the call had been transferred to an Oregon station. This was on one of the worst stock radios you can get- the first generation MINI (mine happens to be a 2003 model). I must have been at the right elevation and had a clear shot to their tower. I know there is at least one DX'er on here; perhaps Government Camp would be a good place to do a bandscan.

Damn....I thought for a minute reading the headline that you drove through a time/space wormhole and you were picking up Murdock, Hunter & Alice on KLSY 92.5 Seattle circa '80s/'90s.....
 
Not surprised they can be heard in eastern Oregon. Get out of the path of K229AD (KDYK-1020) 93.7 and I can null them out and receive KLSY in the lower Valley.
Head out to I-82 near Selah Creek. Just tune to 105.1, 101.1, 106.7 or 100.3...and you will hear Portland stations, so strong you could probably get RDS. I used to also hear KDUK-104.7, but with the new 104.9 and 104.5 in the valley, it's unusable.

People in that area will tell you it's "Central" Oregon. :)
 
Excuse me, forgot that. We call ourselves Central WA!
But I do wonder if KLSY (and other western WA/OR stations) can be heard in La Grande or Pendleton. I know the band is starting to get crowded.

Just an FYI... KLSY site is on South Mountain, where it has been since it moved from South Aberdeen. There's no "at the moment". It operates at 32 kw. The real question is... Did you learn any Spanish?
