Anyone getting new stuff on 1560 without WFME?

WFME has gone off the air for a significant period of time because they lost their transmitter site in Queens and will be moving to a new site in the near-future. This has opened 1560 up for any low-power or long-distance DX on the east coast. I'm hearing reports from east coast DXers that WGLB WI and WKDO KY are getting out, and KLNG NE was heard earlier tonight by Jim Renfrew near Buffalo.
Wonder what the Chicago DXers are getting, along with Steve in PA and others...
 
I'm in Chicago... The only specifically new one I've gotten recently is WCNW in Fairfield, OH, during critical hours. (Usually WFME was strongest around sunset.) Later in the evening, I've gotten some of the regulars lately. I'm not sure if I heard them before or after WFME shut off, but the most common are probably WTUI in Sullivan, MO and KLNG in Council Bluffs, IA.
 
I did hear WKDO yesterday with country music.
Normally I get KTUI, KLNG or KGOW.
 
KGOW is off the air at the moment, presumably due to the icy weather we’re having.
 
I'll give it a try on the hour to see if I can get an ID but so far it sounds like weak pop music I can barely pick up.
