ignal

KTWO can be heard in almost all of Wyoming during the day. During the night, KTWO has been reported much farther distances, such as Southern California [ [http://www.angelfire.com/mt2/rmwdx/amsocali.html/ Socal DX logs] ] , and Flagstaff, Arizona [ [http://www.ubstudios.com/flagstaffdx.html/ Flagstaff DX logs] ] domestically. It has also been received internationally in the Netherlands [ [http://www.mwcircle.org/gallery/QSL_Card_Gallery/ktwo QSL Card sent to Netherlands] ] and Japan [ [http://www.schoechi.de/an-usa09.html DX Logs] ] .

KTWO uses a directional antenna pattern that is only operational at night, and pushes most of the station's transmitting power to the west. This is in place to protect clear channel station WBZ in Boston, Massachusetts, which is also on 1030.

History

KTWO was the first AM radio station in Wyoming. It signed on January 2 of 1930, as KDFN. [ [http://jeff560.tripod.com/am9.html AM Broadcasting History]
