[IRCA] Groovin 1580 WXRA Georgetown/Lexington, Kentucky
They are BLASTING in to Abbeville and Silverstreet/Newberry, South Carolina. Most definately on their 10KW/3 tower SE facing DAY pattern instead of their 48W/3 tower SE facing night pattern. Slogan is "Groovin 1580, Old School Hits" They play Oldies, Motown and Urban Hits. A phone num,ber announced as a listener line is (859) 280-1580. The signal is SO strong that even if I leave WABV's Gates BC1-H exciter on, I can STILL here them! (Note: WABV is on 1590! Thats how strong they are!) Sincerely, Paul B.

They were still blasting in at 6 AM this morning. I woke up at 5:30 and couldn't go back to sleep.

And they woke you up?? ___ 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

And they woke you up?? Just about. I woke up at 5:30 WIDE AWAKE and so around 6 I turned on the 1955 Heathkit general coverage radio by the bed. I had tuned it to 1580 last night. Yep they were still blasting away. I have a 12AV6 that when you turn the radio on lights up for a light bulb for a second, so I am replacing it, and the replacement came in today. It's amazing for a 5 tube radio.

Drat! I'm on the digest mode, so I missed hearing about WXRA - I need that one. Maybe they'll do a "rerun" tonight. 73, Dave in Indy -- Message: 8 Date: Thu, 22 May 2008 13:20:32 -0700 (PDT) From: "Powell E.

I highly doubt there will be a "rerun" of last nights full power events, Clear Channel Lexington's Chief Engineer emailed me privately and assured me they'd be out there first thing this morning to fix the problem.
