That was the only top 40 station we could get at night on the East
side of Phoenix in the '60s. They were "KOMA (in Oklahoma)" back
then. The BBC's late great John Peel used to work there.

KOMA put in a very good signal in on the Oregon coast (I'm thinking that was
supposedly out of their pattern). It was one of the stronger signals we
could hear in Astoria at night. Others were KFI, KNBR, KFRC, KFRE, KTWO,
KBOI, KING, KIRO, KDWN, KGO, KSL, KOL, KGA... et al. KOMA was interesting
though in that we had a 50KW signal only 70 miles away on the same
frequency.

Their pattern is WNW at night. I can get KOMO 1000 here (N. L.A.
County) very regularly.

Your 1520 flamethrower seems to have vanished:
