you guys are going to make me go to my bedroom, lie down and scan the MW dial with a notepad.

Yup, it's the old KPCR. The move took place in the summer of '06. For about the first year, it simulcast 1070 KHMO in Hannibal (same owners), since then they play a wide variety of AC type oldies with little or no talk
 
as you can see in my logs, i've picked up more US stations then in the other one. Just couldn't ID them.

If you guys can figure out what they are please do!
 
Can anyone please try to tell me what I heard? I heard more US stations then before. Why? I don't know.

Thanks, Rob

Thanks for the info on the old KPCR. I can imagine the dial has changed a lot since 1986, both day and night.

If you tell me some of what you remember from that era, I could probably tell you some of what has changed since then in Quincy/Hannibal area ;D
