Re: [IRCA] 830 kHz, I was wrong again!
WCRN website only mentioned "God Talk" for religion & didn't say when. They don't seem to list what they carry overnight? Most of their schedule seems conservative talk and what some might call infomercials or paid programming. I went to Roy Masters' website www.fhu.com and it lists "Advice Line" 4-5 am Tu-F & 2-4 am *Saturday* on WCRN. My reception was about 2-4 am EDT *Sunday* but many consider a day as not over until they go to bed, so maybe a safe assumption it was them? Advice Line has been on the radio 52 years & is currently on about 175 stations. This was the only one I saw for 830. Thanks for all replies. 73, George S., MN --- On Wed, 9/15/10, Paul B.

[IRCA] 830 kHz, I was wrong again!
I apparently heard *both* WTRU Kernersville,NC & WCRN Boston, MA. They & WTRU have same 1st & 3rd call letters, C & T are sound-alike with less than perfect reception. I thought the calls sounded like WTRX. Maybe my attention deficit. So I was unaware that one station was fading out quickly & quickly replaced by the other. When I heard Talk Radio slogan at bottom of hour, I thought WTRU? probably said Christian (unreadable) Talk Radio as their website shows that slogan. Definitely many calls with religious subject, and what I think of as southern accents. Carolina was mentioned 2 or 3 times, including Carolina Mobile, which is listed as a sponsor on the WTRU website. Also when WTRU showed Truth Radio Network on their website, I thought that might be what they said, but thought Truth sounded like 2 syllables. Does the CRN in WCRN stand for Christian Radio Network? (Christian is 2 syllables). Or did I miss a syllable & maybe they said CBS Radio Network? Or maybe they said True Talk Radio Network? WCRN is listed as CBS True Talk on Barry's site. When I tried a search engine for CBS True Talk, nothing came up? Roy Masters seemed like a mix of religion & politics, except some of that talk may have been WTRU, listed as carrying Micheal Medved. I would like to thank Ken Baird for telling me WCRN does carry Roy Masters. Also, I heard a CBS News sounder weakly about 15 seconds before I heard it stronger on WCCO. 73, George S., MN ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
