Re: [HCDX] HELP: AMC-8 1540 heard in CT
Searching for Westwood One AMC8 Transponder 23 on the internet brought up an e-mail on another reflector with the following from September 15, 2013: 1540 AM Albany - Down AM 1540 Albany (I can't keep track of their call letters any more) is currently running my favorite This is Westwood One Radio Networks AMC 8 Transponder 23. To authorize your receiver call Westwood One Denver Operations at 720-xxx- from 8AM-10PM Eastern Time. *BEEP* Westwood One AMC 8 seems to be a satellite that feeds a number of commercial radio networks. So looks like this station was -- either accidentally or maybe on purpose to tune up -- rebroadcasting the marker signal of its feed satellite. Regards, Art Delibert N.

Konnie, Welcome back. It would have helped a lot to get a bearing on it with your clock radio. This happens far too often when some automated station fails to plug into the correct satellite feed. 73, Glenn Hauser, OK On Sat, 11/30/13, Konnie Rychalsky dxbo...@gmail.com wrote: Subject: [HCDX] HELP: AMC-8 1540 heard in CT To: hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com Date: Saturday, November 30, 2013, 7:11 PM Hi folks, After a lengthy hiatus, I'm back with a head scratcher: For the first time, on Nov 22 ( 23) heard on 1540 kHz at 0754-UTC on an analog clock-radio a loop consisting of a tone/message: This is Westwood One Radio Network's A-M-C-8 Transponder 23; To authorize your receiver contact c.
