1300 KKOL off air

1300 KKOL which has been airing a contemporary Christian AC format since it’s return to full power operation recently, has been off air since the weekend.  It’s unknown if this is a technical issue but the signals of co-combined “The Answer” 1590 KLFE & “Radio Luz” 1680 KNTS are both operating at normal power.  With KKOL off air, the last few evenings “DXing”  the frequency only resulted in regular customers country KLER Orofino ID & Christian talk/music “K-Apple” KAPL Phoenix OR.  Monday evening  however I was treated to a 3-way battle between 120 watts “My Country” KCMY Carson CIty NV,  Spanish ranchera music “W Radio” XEXW Nogales, Sonora & Spanish news/talk “Radio Mexicana Nuestra Noticias” XEP  Ciudad Juarez
