And according to Earl Higgins, KCJJ in Iowa City (which was on 1560 with 1 kw 
back in the day) was required to SIGN OFF COMPLETELY at Iowa City sunset to 
protect KPMC and then allowed to sign back on at Bakersfield sunset!  Is that 
true?  I asked KCJJ's current owner (someone who wasn't even involved with the 
station until 1994) about that, and he says that was never the case.  But, then 
again, his knowledge of station history is a bit foggy.  He keeps denying that 
they signed off 1560 for good on October 13, 1998 with the Beatles' The End, 
when I KNOW that they did, because I recorded the darn thing.   73, Rick Dau

 Quite a few stations west of WQEW are daytimers with critical hours 
 authority. 
 
 A little trivia. WQEW is authorized to use its daytime facilities until 
 sunset at KNZR in Bakersfield, CA; three extra hours. I don't know why.

I don't know but asked someone who might. 

As for the WQEW/KNZR situation the only unusual thing I could find is that KNZR 
is a grandfathered Class A; 25 kW daytime and 10 kW nighttime. Most Class A 
stations are 50 kW full time.

Re: [IRCA] 1560 NYC off

2015-02-17 Thread Dennis Gibson
It has PSSA in February from 6:00 to 8:00; 32 watts dropping to 25 watts. That 
must be it. It has PSSA for two hours every month; 41 watts dropping to 26 
watts in April, May, June and September and 32 watts dropping to 25 watts the 
other months. I never see any discussion of PSRA and PSSA in all of the talk 
about cheaters.

I have seen discussions regarding the accuracy of the PSRA and PSSA charts in 
the FCC database. Several smart people and some research suggest that the 
charts were issued in late February of 2007 and recalled a week or so later. 
Does anyone want to tackle that topic?

 KLNG is being naughty. It's a 10 kW daytimer with 2.1 kW critical hours. The

 Hi Dennis,
 I think KNZR was a clear channel allotment when it came on the air in the 
 1930s as KPMC. (1932, I think.)
 I don't know when the 1560 in NYC came on the air.

Dennis,
I don't rrecall exactly when, (I think it was after I left Bakersfield), but I 
think the 25Kw day power for KPMC/KNZR began in the late 1980s.
I remember them as 10Kw day and night. 
They mainly signed off at midnight till the early 70s, then ran till 1 AM or 
later.
They had so many local sports commitments that a few Saturday nights they'd run 
live Bakersfield College sports, and then they'd run tape-delayed sports 
events, sometimes until nearly 5:45 AM sign-on.
