KWRD-AM Henderson on at night?

I've caught KWRD-AM in Henderson this week broadcasting sports talk late nights. The signal is weak so I'm guessing they're on low power. Are they on emergency authorization because of the recent tornado damage or did the FCC finally grant them nighttime power?

Can't imagine Hanszen going out on a limb like that just to show off a station. He's too good for that kind of thing.

Hummm Hanszen doing something not quite legal? Well he does broadcast 2 seperate football games on the same FM, one on the left channel and one on the right.....Which is completely illegal! He does this so that he can get all of the football games possible so there are none available for other stations. He would absolutely leave that AM transmitter on. When Jerry Russell owned KWRD it did have night time power. But it lapsed, under Russell's ownership. Yes KWRD/KPXI are for sale but he's trying to get almost 1 million dollars for it, when these days its not worth 1/3rd that price.

Haha actually no he is not selling them for anywhere close to 1 Million. I actually spoke with him and the broker about KWRD and KPXI a few months back.
 
I was told that he was asking around 900k for them, nice to see reality has set in lol.

Is he selling KMHT as well?
