You might have to listen to the station on the hour and half hour to 
catch a station ID and maybe frequency. If they don't announce the 
frequency the FCC data base of call signs should give it. Then you might 
be able to connect a coil and capacitor as a trap at the antenna 
connection to minimize that station.
