1590 AM - WHPY - Validated from Last Night.

I tuned back in to 1590 at 7:50pm and the same Christian programming station was on the air.

I validated the broadcast online as WHPY out of Clayton, NC. 

I tried to pull the station in an hour earlier and heard nothing.

At 7:54pm, WHPY is coming in clear at times and then fades out. 

I can hear a baseball game bleeding through. Heard "squares a bunt." I believe I heard a ball game last night also.
