Confirmed! WNRP - 1620 AM from Pensacola, FL
Yesterday morning I was able to confirm the station on 1620 am was indeed WNRP News Radio out of Pensacola, FL.
So it's a 10,000 watt station during the day and turns down to 1000 watt at night. I originally misread this thinking there was no way it could get up here.
This is the first time I've heard this station while monitoring 1620 am since September. Hopefully it's a seasonal or conditions thing.
UPDATE: Last week, WNRP was no longer heard and The Elm was coming in at the high school. Good news.

Possible Pensacola, FL Station?
I heard a station override The Elm this morning in Dormont around 8 am. They stated "92.3 and 1620." The only station I found was WNRP from Pensacola, FL. Not sure it's right but I heard a traffic report and then a traffic report on their online feed. I was driving so it was hard to 100% it. I will revisit this and figure it out another day.
I just don't believe that Florida station could get that far out. It's a mystery for now.
