Patrick,

I was told earlier that KRKO was going to be 50 KW day & night, but
recently someone said they would be 50 KW day & 5 KW nights. Which is
correct? They are now directional North nights. I  think they probably
will keep a sinilar pattern. I would think that they could not be
directional to the SW as of KAST 1370 or the South because of KKSN 1390.

73,

[IRCA] 600 unID - Empowering Your Health

2007-04-16 Thread saulamdx
Just back from Burnt River ON.

Who on 600 carries Empowering Your Health
(www.asaandrew.com). I heard an ID "Supertalk ...
WTN", which checks to 99.7 in Nashville, the city
where the show is based. But I have no idea who
carries this on 600 - heard Sunday 15 April at 2308

Any help is appreciated, with thanks.

[IRCA] Thank you re 790 CIGM & 600 CKAT responses

2007-04-16 Thread saulamdx
Thanks to all of you who responded re CKAT 600 and
CIGM 790. I took a trip to Burnt River ON and 790 is
clearly dominant at night, and it shouldn't be. I'm
also hearing a *bit* more CKAT than I think is normal,
and these both fit with the pattern I've noticed this
season. Well, get 'em while you can -- a ***very***
diplomatic, friendly approach is planned. I will not
use any names of course. I just wanted to know if I
was on base or off base. 

On a related note with these stations, some radio
trivia ... the only other AM stations in northern
Ontario are low-power CBC relays, and 580 CKPR Thunder
Bay which is scheduled to move to FM and sign off not
too long from now. Not much to hear up there in the
daytime on AM. The only thing that may stop them from
moving to FM is CRTC ownership limits of two FM
stations in one community for one company. Rogers
already has two in Sudbury and two in North Bay, I
believe.

Again, thanks to the many of you who responded.

Re: [IRCA] Commercial Stations on Federal Property

2007-04-16 Thread bportzer
Indeed, there have been other instances where the military has set up AM/FM 
transmitters in the US.

There are currently TIS type operations at some military bases, such as the one 
on 1500 at Fort Lewis WA.

At one time, there was a large network of AFRS stations across Alaska, 
including some within earshot of commercial stations.

Also some stations past & present on small US-owned islands out in the Pacific, 
though they are ones controlled by the Defense Dept or some other federal 
agency and so isolated that it wouldn't make sense for the FCC to get involved.

attempting to upgrade from 5 kw to 50 kw. Most of the hurdles have
concerned environmental issues. Despite continued appeals they expect to

Here in Northern NJ, the flooding knocked WGHT 1500 off the air. I was 
listening to the radio on the way home from work and I found no signal from 
them. 

Third time they've been flooded out since I've been working there (part-time). 
Their antennas and studios are right on the Pompton River so it's no surprise. 

Wonder when they'll get back on. They're a daytimer, so it doesn't affect 
anybody's DX.

I would keep the 2000 ft elevated Bev no matter what, but might try a 
parallel 1000 ft BOG N/S and compare the two. It will be rather long for the 
upper half of BCB and not useful off the back end for BCB, but should rock 
for NDB.

If you terrain isn't flat and dryish, I'd just keep using elevated wires. 
How much wire can you get up NE/SW and SE/NW ?  73 KAZ and feel free to ask

[IRCA] clock radios that "DX"

2007-04-16 Thread Powell E. Way III W4OPW


There are some folks on the DX lists that think that
getting an out of town radio station on skywave is DX.
It's not and most of us know that. That's why, in my
little write up below, I call it "DX" 

Most of us never think of clock radios as a DX radio.
 In this case I say DX as...well "DX". No, these 2
will
 not rival a R8B, or a R-390, but these 2 are
unusually
 sensitive and somewhat selective, but keeping a
decent
 sound. I am only mentioning the AM sections of these
2
 models. UNfortunately, neither Panasonic nor Sony
make
 anything like these models.  
 
 Panasonic RC-97 from the early 80's. I had 3. My
 original one got too much internal damage from soot
 and one of the the radio would only work when you
held
 down the ON button. The alarm switch, was damaged by
 the soot from the fire. To the trashcan it went.   I
 got the other 2 at a thrift store at $5.00 each. 
 
 Sony ICF-C730. Green digital clock display and analog
 tuning. I found this at a thrift store for a couple
 dollars. 
 
 I also have a Panasonic RC-205. It's larger than the
 RC-97, and like the RC-97 can be mounted flush to a
 wall. If you do that, you had better not need to
 change the time on the alarm very often.  It has a
 better sound than the RC-97, however, this one has
 some places where it whistles. It's a bit wider than
 the RC-97 and that  is good and bad. It doesn't have
 date and dual alarms like the RC-97

Paul,

You have a fabulous idea there.

Make sure you set some rules for behavior around the station, and establish
that you're in charge.

But the idea of a meeting point for us folks out here is great!

What is the possibility of your group (when it meets) planting posts for a
semi-permanent beverage?

I, myself, probably couldn't make it out. Does Abbeville have a hotel or
a room & breakfast operation?

Mike,

The point I'm trying to make is that the ultimate authority for broadcast 
operations on
a military base is the federal entity in charge, that branch of the 
military. By the same
reasoning, a Greenville (NC) station would have to get authorization from 
IBB to build before
they could apply to the FCC for a CP on VOA property.


That said, it could be done, especially if it makes for good community 
relations.

Re: [IRCA] Commercial Stations on Federal Property

First -- not ALL military bases are federal property.   Some are rented and 
like Fort Lewis, Washington -- .  Most of the base is State Property and some 
is owned by private land owners as well as other federal agencies.   FM channel 
104.9 A was allocated at one time to San Clemente, California.  The only 
possible transmitter location -- would have to be on Camp Pendleton.  One 
General said that he would "Give his permission" to rent a small area for such 
a transmitter location.   A new Base Commander -- later said he would not -- 
and all 16 pending applications --- and the channel were dismissed and deleted. 
 Under FCC rules -- a Military Base -- can be a "city of license".  It is

[IRCA] SC/NC/GA/TN Meet up?

2007-04-16 Thread Paul B. Walker, Jr.
What say all of us in the SC/TN/GA/NC area meet up?

Since I don't drive, I obviously couldn't get very far.. so I'd suggest the
radio station here, WABV-AM 1590.

We could meet up one evening, say a Friday maybe. and hang out at the
radio station over Pizza and Soda.. shootin the breeze about DXing and
radio? Or, one night in say July, when I hold a DX test early one Saturday
morning, some of you brave souls could join me for a few hours in the wee
morning.

Just thought I'd offer/suggest these.. I know we have several members around
here

[IRCA] Commercial Stations on Federal Property

Paul,

That's the point. As long as the station isn't on Federal property, they
can say the are licensed to that facilityI guess.

So if WSME says it's Camp LeJeune, the commanding general can't say
doodlebug about itjust as long as none of the station is aboard
the base.

By the same token, if Marine Corps Base Camp LeJeune wants to set up a
small AFRTS station of, say 50 - 100 watts, the FCC has no say. The
USMC would have to go through NTIA to coordinate a frequency with the
FCC.

There was, for a while, a small Army Information Radio station at
Fort Bragg on 640 with 50 watts. Why it was shut down, I don't know.
I'll bet the commercial stations in Fayetteville fussed to one of
NC's senators and political considerations came into play.

In fact, AIR-640 shut down not too long before WFNC moved from 940 to
640, and I'll bet the base commander decided it was too much fuss.

by the same token, the FCC has no jurisdiction over VOA.

[IRCA] BOG Antenna Questions

2007-04-16 Thread Vernon Matheson
Hi all,

I am wondering if there is anyone on the list that has considerable
experience using various length BOG antennas and could comment on their
directivity.

Here is Nova Scotia I am running a 2000' E/W and a 1000' N/S. I use these
antennas for NDB's and BCB reception. I use a 75/j - 11:33 turns to couple
to them and feed with 75ohm coax

What I would like to know is how directive they are as compared to a
beverage 10' in the air.

I seem to have a null spot from approximately 30-60 degrees. I would have
thought that by setting them up the way that I did they would have enough
spread off each end to cover the middle.

Alsodoes adding length cause a BOG to me more directive?

All comments appreciated and thanks in advance.

*** My understanding is that a BOG of length 'x' roughly equates in
performance to an elevated Beverage of '3x'. IN practics at the L;ong
Beach Island DXpeditions, we've had best results with BOG's in the
range of 500-800', which generally tend to yield a fairly good
directivity. I believe there are some illustrations on our group's
website, www.radiodxing.com.

We seem to be going around in circles on this. If a station's tower  
is on a military base, it would seem to me that a lease with some  
government entity would be required. "Permission to build a tower"  
would be implied in such a lease. Perhaps what everyone is trying to  
say is the fact that the FCC isn't concerned the tower or studios are  
as long as the city of license is covered with the required amount of

Other places have had it much worse - Upstate NY, Vermont, NH and Maine
have been hit with a lot of snow. North of NYC there is flooding.
There's significant flooding in Southern NJ, also NE and SW of
Philadelphia.

NYC Central Park had nearly 8 inches. A bit up from there was nearly
nine.

We had about 5 here, and I had lots of water in the basement, and still
do. The normal groundwater level is still high and water is still
seeping in along the lower parts of the basement walls. Last night I
had the sump pump tip over, waking me ( 2 stories up ) after an unknown
time with the noise. Fixed that but a few hours later the float became
wedged against the pit wall resulting in an inch or more of water all
over the basement before I want back to check around 3 am. 

I managed to secure the pump by drilling a small hole into the concrete
block, and inserting a screw anchor and then a screw eye, and loopping
some wire around the pump stem and tying it off onto the screw eye.
That seems to be holding. Now if only the groundwater level would start
to recede. Needless to say, with all of that water, nothing in the
shack will be operating tonight and I'm too tired from lost sleep to
use a portable to listen for emergency broadcasts.

Someone applied for 103khz at "Maxwell AFB", Alabama which is Montgomery.

Wether or not it'll get granted, is beyond me.

But, to the FCC.. i guess they consider the Military base it's own town. The
tower can be 5 miles away, as long as it covers the "town"

*** For some reason WFNA was very strong that night. I never even heard
Michigan other than periodically noting a second ESPN in the mix which
was likely them. I did hear segments of classical music ( but of course
never an ID - I recorded in half-hour segments overlapping TOH & BOH ).
This was obviously Kansas City, but I'd prefer to have something more
than that, despite the fact that on 1660, there's really no question...


Since I do these by remote recording, set up hours earlier, I have no
way ( even though I've tried several orientations on several nights
with and without WWRU lately and can't seem to get any kind of a
reasonable null on WFNA.

Patrick,

Point is that FCC can't license the transmitter to a military base. But
I guess they can license the station to MCB Camp LeJeune. It's just that
without base commander's authorization, the station simply cannot be
aboard the base. The includes the studios, too, although the FCC wouldn't
concern itself with the studios.

Paul,

Me n' Mike, we're kinda sensitive to the FCC thinking it can license a BC
commercial station to a military base without the commander of the base
also authorizing the station placement there. Without the commander's
authorization, the FCC has no authority.

Now Mike, he bein' secret agent 07½, can go aboard MCB
and investigate this situation.

Charlie, if you look at the maps associated with the FCC AM Query web
site, they show the WSME transmitter as being just slightly outside of
the base at the NE corner of Camp Lejeune.

As far as proximity to the COL, one of the stations that I work for is
rated in the top 20 of the Denver-Boulder market. The studios are 53
miles from the COL. The transmitter is on a mountain 63 miles from the
studio. Telephone calls between the studio and the transmitter are toll
calls. They are in different area codes.

1238 to 1255 UT listening, and seemed that signals were already 
fading down during that period.  Quite a number of good level 
carriers, but nothing much in the way of decent audio

reasonable audios (though often battling w/splash): nothing really

not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise:  774, 828

Burbles in the splatter:  594, 738 DU, 1134, 1278, 1377, 1593 seemed CC

Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by 
splatter):  747, 855 w/hum, 972, 1053, 1188, 1269, 1287, 1386, 1458 DU?
