Was listening to the AM band approximately 10AM - 11AM. Noticed KYND not on the air, however KULF was and had language I did not understand and music. But, had LEGAL ID @ 10:15AM in English

Was it spanish or asian?

KULF has broadcast a US Version of China Radio International in the past
 
Has anybody heard the KULF translator? The few times I remember to check while going down 290 there I haven’t heard it on the air.
 
KYND apparently got new owners last year or early this year, they seem to be doing a good job. :p
 
El Sembrador programming is now running on KYND, but the audio level is very low—perhaps 20% at most. Auto-inserted TOHID was at a much higher level, so the issue is with the network feed.

Meanwhile dead air on KULF.
 
Although the volume is low, it's good to know KYND lives on. Having joined KYND in July 1993, I saw the station struggle and evolve over the years. I saw many years of the station turning a profit always with a warm body in the station. In the end, that coincided with Hurricane Harvey, KYND went without billing, studio and staff and finally unable to pay me, forcing me to look for other employment after going through many thousands in savings in hopes of pulling it out. Part of that story was my owners knew my parents were aged and sometimes needed me to visit a few days. Since I could monitor the station via computer and carried the station phone n my pocket, my owners were kind enough to say I could take as much time as I needed to help my parents out. I figured any other radio job would never allow this, so while I drained savings to hang on, I never could get my owners to agree to a client paying what the market could bear at that moment. Finally I had to leave for a paycheck in 2019. At least the station sold to a responsible and above board owner who can now utilize KYND for their benefit. I suppose KYND will always be my baby, so I'm glad to see the positive report.
 
Checking just now (1pm 9/22), KULF is apparently on with an open carrier only. KYND is, as Mediafrog said above, running El Sembrador at a low level. The TOH ID was in English during the middle of a song.

I also noticed (presumed) KULF's open carrier just before 5am a couple of days ago.
