*Looks like second harmonic of WFIA* (900 KHz ) in Louisville KY.

Could be radiated by WFIA or could be generated locally to you. 
Temporary installation of a high pass filter with a 1500 KHz cutoff 
between your K3 and the antenna would demonstrate whether it is 
generated inside the K3 or externally.
