Thanks to all for your input!
I'm glad to have joined this newsgroup; people actually focus on radio, unlike
rec.radio.shortwave.
Doug,
I believe you're right. I must have been hearing WZRC in NY. A Google search
showed that they are a Chinese language station. I did not realize that there
were stations in the US that broadcast in languages other than Enlgish and
Spanish. Like I said... I'm new at this. But I just got a Radio Shack 15-1853
loop antenna, so maybe I'll get to find some other interesting signals on MW.

I was trying to find a station carrying the Red Sox-Yankees game while
driving home in southern Maine last Friday night, around 2345 UTC. I had
a weak signal of the game, but them another signal came in very clearly.
It overpowered the local New England station and I listened until about
2400 UTC. I believe it was Chinese and it was some form of talk show or
call in program. Needless to say, I wouldn't have known a station ID if
I'd heard one. Can anyone tell me how I can find out what Asian station
was broadcasting on 1480?
http://www.nrcdxas.org , the AM Radio Log is a good list for MW DXing.
The station you heard was probably WZRC New York.
