** U S A. 1530, May 28 at 0604, one more check for KLBW cheatin` daytimer heard three previous nites around now: instead frequency dominated by music, ``Baby-Love``, about same NW/SE bearing as for New Boston TX, but is opposite, ``Good Time Oldies on the I-25 Radio Network``, which means Colorado: KCMN Colorado Springs, but it`s got to be cheatin` too, as NRC AM Log shows it with 15000 watts day/00015 watts night! U1 i.e. non-direxional day and night. Will be interesting to follow which one is heard subsequently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
