** U S A. There have been some reports of KFGO 790 Fargo ND being heard where it

normally is not. May well be running day facilities due to the flooding, i.e.
non-direxional instead of due north. Also look for the new station on 1100, WZFG

which has 50 kW day facility but seldom DX-reported for some strange reason.

Without researching them further, other frequencies for Fargo stations are 740
and 970; Bismarck 550, 710, 1130, 1270 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

KFGO 790 heard here for the very first time at 0815 UT. Talking about flooding
and evacuation, station ID. Taking phone calls.

50 KW "Day", 5 KW "Critical Hours" (e.g. sunrise to 10 AM, 3 PM to
sunset); and a whopping 440 Watts at night.
