Try KMJ, Fresno.

Over 6,500 mV/m at 1 kM in the main lobe, with 50 kW into four 180 degree 
towers, and with the nulls filled to about 5 kW.

Perhaps the finest upgrade of a Class III-A station yet implemented.

This station was earlier 5 kW ND-U on 580, but was a Local in its original 
incarnation.

Incredibly, McClatchey Broadcasting owned two Locals (0.25 kW ND-U) in 
California's Central Valley, one of which, KFBK, then still under McClatchey 
ownership, became a Class I-B (50 kW-U DA-2), and the other, KMJ, became 50 kW-U 
DA-1, this under Infinity ownership.
