New month, new "daytime" period (6:00am-7:00pm for most, if not all,
AMs in the metro). So how did our two most interesting perps fare?

Yesterday's (03/31) sign-off was at 6:34:59pm, nearly 5:00 late.
This morning the lamptimer kicked on the gold mine at 6:05:05
with song-in-progress and of course, no legal ID.
Tonight around 7 there was a legal at 7:00:30, but that's due to
the programming on the hard drive, assuming it runs continuously
whether the XMTR is on the air or not. More music followed per
the automation until the carrier was cut at 7:05:10, sans ID.
From the above times, it seems our fave lamptimer is now drifting
the other way--as in later. It's usual M.O. had always been earlier.

It was difficult to figure them out around 5:59-6:00 this morning.
Something was there, but it was fighting several other signals.
That may have been due to where early in the month it's before
official sunrise and the skywave is still banging in, rendering even
22 gallons somewhat marginal.
This evening, the power drop was at 6:59:41, which is pretty much
what their version of a lamptimer had been doing in the latter part
of March, that is, getting :01 earlier each day or two...so they must
have left it alone figuring "hey it's April and we're legal now!" (Yeah
but you probably weren't the whole month of March. :
)
