Re: [IRCA] the passing of Pete Wilson

[Patrick Martin]

Don,

 John Rothman is always one of my favorites. I also like Gene Burns and
Bernie Ward. Ray T, I used to like his show better than I do now as he
gets too off the wall much of the time. Then there is Kayal. He can be
quite "fun" to listen to. KGO is the best talk station I have ever
heard. My only other stations for talk is Coast to Coast often, and that
can be anything from KKOH, KEX, KSFO, KVI, KIDO, and local KAST.
  If I lost KGO for some reason, I would consider paying the $55 a month
for Cable Internet. But I hope KGO's signal stays solid up here at
night.

73,

Patrick

Pat,

I admit KGO is one of the better stations in the area.  My very favorite talk 
host is John Rothman.  Unfortunately he's on 1-5 PDT on Sun & Mon a.m.'s.  I 
have taken courses from him at Fromm
Inst. here in the city.  He is a marvelous lecturer.  Specialty is The Middle 
East & infrastructure of US Politics.

Re: [IRCA] DX Tips

[Patrick Martin]

Dennis,

The DUs were a bit better last night/early this morning as
Marshalls-1098, Kiribati-846, Tonga-1017, Tahiti-738 were all in. There
was also a signal on 1179 which may have been New Zealand.
But 3LO was not all that great in signal, so when it improves, it should
make it inland.

73,

Re: [IRCA] the passing of Pete Wilson

[Joe Miller, AB8YP]

Patrick and group,

Yes, you are right, it is Wattenberg (sp???). KDKA has
Dr. Knowledge with a very similar type program on
weekends, and he is a lot of fun to listen to. My
favorite episode was when he described the military
aircraft that had to take an emergency landing in the
Monongahella River, and was never found again. Yes,
this was in a river, not the ocean...

Thanks for sharing.

Re: [IRCA] the passing of Pete Wilson

[Joe Miller, AB8YP]

Thx Chris and the group, I appreciate the
clarification as well. I was out in Seattle Washington
and Orange County California in 2003 and listened to
KGO at night, but Bill Westenhaver (sp???) is the only
announcer that I remember listening to on KGO.

And as long as we're talking KGO, I believe this was
the station that WJR's J. P. McCarthy worked at in the
late 1950's, in between his two gigs at WJR. Of course
the second gig lasted for almost 35 years until his
death in 1995.

Marc,

Like WRKO, KNBR is very very rarely off. I have to go back to the 60s,
when they were off. It sounds like WRKO is in the same boat.

Re: [IRCA] the passing of Pete Wilson

[The Kaskey Family]

Marty,

I can't answer your question as I watch little TV.  Sports events, Jeopardy & a 
couple children's shows when the grandchildren are here.  I did read several 
articles in the San Francisco
Chronicle about Pete's death.

To those of you not familiar with the Bay Area I should clarify that this Pete 
Wilson was the anchorperson on local KGO-TV.  A very good one it seems.
He is not the Pete Wilson that was Governor of California a decade ago.

Marty,

Gee, I did not know this. Thanks for passing the info along. Sorry to
hear it. I was listening to Ray last night and I did not hear him
mention it, but I did not listen long, just a bit before I fell asleep. 
I know some of the guys at KGO are getting up in their years. I don't
know how old Pete was. Dr. Bill and Ray T are getting up there too.

Thanks. Yes, but it took a beverage aimed at WRKO! It was pretty poor

John,

I hope they don't get built! I don't need or want a lobe aimed at me.
KPUA (not KGU), has a nice signal here at night. Phasing or nulling 10
KW KPUA for REW might be tough, as he is close to them too.

I heard & QSL'd WRKO 680 last season when KNBR was off. The first and
only time I heard them. I have never heard 850 WEEI though. But I did
get WEEI on 590 back in 1970 during a DX Test.

[IRCA] WRKO-680 and WEEI-850

[Marc DeLorenzo]

Incredibly, Patrick Martin in Oregon QSLed WRKO-680 a few months ago.  I can't 
recall a report of WEEI-850 (ex-WHDH)  making it to the West Coast.  Both 
stations can be easily heard in Europe.

Re: [IRCA] , WRKO-680 and WEEI-850

[Neil Kazaross]

I've logged WEEI on very good skip nights here in IL with KOA phased out, 
and consider it to be very rare DX. Up north by the Lake in WI, I have 
considerably better reception of eastern stuff and WEEI is sometimes 
detectable in there. I have not caught WRKO at either place and WPTF is 
major QRM and if I use a ENE directed BOG in WI, Toronto is a problem, 
although I expect I could dig WRKO when they are on their day pattern which 
has some signal to the west. WRKO has been heard by a couple area DXers over 
the past couple of decades.  73 KAZ Barrington IL, Grafton WI

I have both in my Rochester logs - they're reasonably common here around

Re: [IRCA] WIBC-1070, WRKO-680 and WEEI-850

[Tom Dimeo]

WIBC isn't real common here in Harrisburg Pennsylvania but I 
have heard them quite often.  With all the recent discussion 
about the station when I woke up this morning at just before 
3:00 A.M. I tuned into 1070 and there was WIBC with a very 
nice ID.  The station then faded down with all the others.

Many years ago while going to school in Pittsburgh WIBC was 
quite common.  Pittsburgh must be on the very fringe of the 
night pattern.

Wonder if WRKO-680 or WEEI-850 have ever been heard very far 
west of Boston?

Re: [IRCA] Patterns

325.94 mV/m at 250 degrees, with three little lobes of 104.88 at 355 (which 
could push a small signal up one of my two favorite highways, 101 (US 30 being 
the other); 104.67 at 145 degrees and 78.61 mV/m at 70 degrees. Deepest null -- 
1.38 mV/m at 35 degrees, 8.70 at 105, and 7.42 at 180.

Richard Wood would hear 'em if he nulled KGU! If and when they get on the air.
