I was looking through the new NRC log tonight under IBOC stations and I about fell out of my chair when I noticed that KAST 1370 Astoria listed as IBOC. I would be really surprised as they do not have much of a budget and their transmitter is older. Wishfull thinking? I am going over to KAST tomorrow to resent the CE with one of Scott Fybush's calendars, thanking Tom Freel for the great tour of New NW BCers at the 2006 IRCA convention. The cover of Scott's great calendar is the KAST site. KAST was going to have an X Band station on 1700 (KCHT) that never materialized, so who knows, but IBOC in Clatsop County on AM? Also 1570 was supposed to be a 50 KW station, even a CP that was never built. But time will tell. At least the locals are low power here and rather weak, but IBOC in Clatsop County? The West side of Kauai is looking better all of the time.
