Re: [HCDX] [abdx.org] KMMJ 750 Grand Island, NE History Question & Answer
If you look up the history cards for WHLO Akron, you will see that from the time they moved from 610 to 640 they were licensed as 1 KW, DA-1, LT. The LT stands for Limited Time. There is no mention of daytime only operation. I'm pretty sure you will find the same thing for the other stations that Broadcasting Yearbook listed as (L-) for years. In the power listings for the stations in BY, they do not say anything like 5 KW-D, which would indicate that they are licensed as a daytimer. WJJD was listed as 50 KW, DA-1, LT for years. Kit On Thursday, March 12, 2020, 6:03:23 PM MDT, Paul B. Walker, Jr. wrote: Kit, those are licensed as daytimer.. KMMJ is licensed as limited operation.. its a bit of a nitpick play on words On Thu, Mar 12, 2020 at 5:43 PM Kit via Hard-Core-DX wrote: There was a recent discussion of Limited Time stations, and there were a few of them, some of which probably still have that authority, but I don't know if you mean that KMMJ was different than the others for some reason. I can think of a few of them right off, but maybe you know them already. One of them was finally granted full time status after the breakdown of the clears. I am thinking of WJJD 1160 Chicago, which was essentially a daytimer for years, but they were a Limited Time station, meaning that they were able to stay on until sunset at Salt Lake City. There were some others like that. Kit On Monday, March 9, 2020, 10:44:00 AM MDT, Paul B. Walker, Jr. wrote: KMMJ-AM 750 Grand Island, NE is licensed as “Limited Hours” and I was curious what exactly this meant. I inquired, a search of FCC History/Archived Records was made and yielded this answer: Way back on September 19, 1968, KMMJ was issued a telegram for presunrise authority to commence operation with its licensed facilities at the local sunrise time of cochannel station WSB, Atlanta. The authority was conditioned subject to the outcome of a rulemaking proceeding (Dockets 17562, 18023, and 18036) relating to the “status of Class II stations [here KMMJ] assigned to US I-A clear channels.” Ultimately, the Commission settled on a 500 watt limitation on presunrise operation nationwide. That was less than KMMJ’s regular operating power (10.5 kW directional away from WSB). It appears too that WSB opposed letting KMMJ keep the higher power presunrise authority (see paragraphs 31 and 32 at https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-69-844A1.pdf , July 29, 1969). The solution the staff came up with was to issue the license for KMMJ with “limited time” of operation. In effect that replaced operation of the 500 watt presunrise limit applicable elsewhere in the country. See the Memorandum of June 12, 1974: https://apps2int.fcc.gov/admin/api/download/attachment/25076f9170b21d4a0170bfdedcc90169 . The changes on the license were included on the next renewal of license authorization (BR-676, dated May 20, 1977). The changes made KMMJ into a “Limited Hours” station and specified the on-air times. As a practical matter, however, KMMJ continued to operate unchanged. (This is the origin of the comment in the AM Query: LIMITED TIME OPERATION: SEE BR-676, MAY 20, 1977.) BR-676: https://enterpriseefiling.fcc.gov/dataentry/api/download/attachment/25076f9170b21d4a0170c009b0480176 KMMJ is still licensed to operate in this manner. It is likely that there is no other station in the country licensed in this manner. _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ ___ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.

Harold Sellers, Vernon BC, Canada replies: ``I was in Guatemala in January. The people there told me that there has been no postal service for a number of years. If important documents have to come in or go out of the country, private courier companies must be used.`` And Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA replies on the WOR iog: Hi Glenn, Curious situation with Guatemala mail. Found this online: "The privatised Guatemalan postal service is currently suspended, due to a years-long contract dispute with the government. For the time being, the only option for sending or receiving mail / packages is through an international courier. FedEx, UPS and DHL all operate in Guatemala." https://www.lonelyplanet.com/guatemala/post.

** GUATEMALA [and non]. 4055, continuing postal discussion: Vince Ferme, Ottawa ON, replies: ``I remember when this was announced. It likely went to the UPU as well. In this case, any competent postal service would not accept this piece of mail. Now, check the following links, nothing newer, so the current situation is anybody's guess: https://www.canadapost.ca/web/en/blogs/announcements/details.page?article=2017/10/05/guatemala&cattype=announcements&cat=updates https://www.canadapost.ca/web/en/blogs/announcements/details.page?article=2018/11/06/mail_and_parcel_serv&cattype=announcements&cat=updates Service on paper does not mean service in reality. The mailbags may all be ending in a paper recycling facility in Guatemala City. Regards, Vince, Ottawa, ON`` And from Leonardo Santiago, Mérida, Venezuela: Hi Glenn, in a previous contact with Dr. Madrid at the end of 2019, he told me the same thing; they cannot send out any postal correspondence due to the lack of postal services in Guatemala since about a couple of years (as far as I can remember). In fact, he sent me a scanned QSL card instead of a printed one along various e-souvenirs for an e-report on Radio Truth. You also asked if there was another country in the world with a similar situation, and I wanted to add my country. Venezuela is facing a similar problem with the national public postal service known as IPOSTEL, standing for Instituto Postal Telegráfico. It happens that they are unable to send letters and packages out, but they are handing out what enters to the country only. According to them, it is due to the lack of transport, car parts and lack of gasoline (this is what they have told me in my recent visits to the local post office). Notwithstanding, although dxer Jorge Medina in Punto Fijo, Falcon, told me that he was receiving some QSLs in November last year, I sadly say that I personally haven't received anything yet, although many QSLs and packages were announced to me via e-mail even since June the 2019. So, just in case somebody is reporting a radio station from Venezuela attempting a QSL verification, my recommendation is to add his e-mail address or WhatsApp contact for a more probable answer, although many stations can be contacted via FB or e-mail. 73s, Leonardo Santiago, Mérida, Venezuela`` Also, some extraneous punxuation dysfunxionalized URLs in Ron Howard`s previous report; fixed: https://www.lonelyplanet.com/guatemala/post US Postal Service website currently shows service to Guatemala. https://postcalc.usps.com/ Online I noted: "Effective April 6, 2019, the U.S. Postal Service™ restored mail service to Guatemala." http://accessworldwide.net/2019/04/25/mail-services-to-guatemala-resumes/ Please do not attach any punxuation, like () or periods, to URLs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

The LT stands for Limited Time.? There is no mention of daytime only operation.? I'm pretty sure you will find the same thing for the other stations that Broadcasting Yearbook listed as (L-) for years.? In the power listings for the stations in BY, they do not say anything like 5 KW-D, which would indicate that they are licensed as a daytimer.? WJJD was listed as 50 KW, DA-1, LT for years. ?

I am thinking of WJJD 1160 Chicago, which was essentially a daytimer for years, but they were a Limited Time station, meaning that they were able to stay on until sunset at Salt Lake City.?
