Patrick, The owner of KLYC has schedule a sale of the equipment and furnishings on April 6, 2013. The call letters since 1949 have been KMCM - KCYX - 06/04/1979 KLYC - 06/20/1990. Sad to see the station leave the air. A lot of people on the Portland PDX forum believe that station will not return to the air. Since I moved up here from the SF Bay Area in 2002, KLYC has been the only station that I have logged on 1260 kHz. I will try and record the sign-off on April 6. I have KYLC now at S-9+15 db on the Sky wire antenna. A distance of 58 miles South Southwest as the crow flies. Moderate splatter from KBAM Long view, WA.
Best regards, Dennis, Kalama, WA ________________________________ From: Patrick Martin <mwd...@webtv.net> To: Dennis Vroom <vroom...@ymail.com>; Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America <irca@hard-core-dx.com> Cc: irca@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 12:47 AM Subject: Re: [IRCA] KLYC 1260 signs off Air March 22, 2013 at 1:00 PM That is too bad. I remember listening to the station back in the 1960s under the calls KMCM for McMinnville. I wonder if the station will finally be bought and return to the air? I guess it came on in 1949, the year I was born. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
