Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1510
Powell, I was wondering if any one would pick up on that report. Though I am about 140 miles from Nashville, WLAC is not always in nice and strong, as you might think. I have heard Phoenix, AZ in on top of them from this QTH. Willis - Original Message - From: "Powell E.

[IRCA] WLAC 1510 interference
I'm in western rural Newberry County, SC and have been hearing telemetry under WLAC. It is intermittent, and I have heard it on a bunch of different radios, including my car radio on a trip back from Columbia one night. Has anybody heard this? I reported it to Eric Rice at the Atlanta, FCC office.

[IRCA] WLAC-1510 pattern changes
Top-of-the-hour unattended timer recordings this weekend turned up a potentially helpful discovery. Nashville sunrise and sunset times this month are both at ToH - sunrise at 8:00 EST and sunset at 6:00 EST. WLAC (the past two days, anyway) has made its pattern changes right at ToH, at about 59:56. This I could barely believe: in each case, there is about four seconds of WLAC being totally OFF the air, carrier and all. Right before 8am EST yesterday, I was treated to the usual local-like WLAC signal, then a quiet but perfectly readable "You're listening to WWBC, Cocoa-Merritt Island ... ", followed by WLAC again. Ten hours later, at 5:59:56 pm EST, it was a shouted "ESPN Deportes Radio!", i.e. WRRD Waukesha WI. Both WWBC and WRRD are relogs, but I never expected to hear them in the clear, if only for four seconds. It felt like a 1974 Monday morning. This is encouraging news if WLAC's dedication to exact times continues. Months where Nashville sunrise and/or sunset times are on the quarter-hour or half-hour will be of little use, but this month both are at ToH.

[IRCA] WLAC-1510 IBOCC OFF?
From the 'For-what-it-is-worth' category: WLAC-1510 appears to have it's IBOC signal turned off. I can hear WFED (X-WTOP) on 1500 and Oklahoma City on 1520. These stations are not heard when WLAC is on with IBOC. The upper part of the band seems very quite this morning.

Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1510 pattern changes
When stations change pattern, they usually do drop off the air for a second or two.. maybe 3.. so that part is nothing new. At WGGH, when we power up, we go off the air for about 1 1/2 seconds... when we power down, we're off the air for about 3 seconds.

Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1510 pattern changes
Not sure if WFNI 1070 (ex-WIBC) still does this but they have in the past. Dead air for 2-4 seconds. I will have to watch for any time that their pattern / power change happens at the TOH. Thanks. You never know about BOH, many stations ID during program swaps @ that time, too.

Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1510 IBOCC OFF?
And WCKY 1530's is off. The exciters for IBOC probably broke. It's not uncommon. WLAC's has been off for a couple weeks. It is coming in loudly but I can hear 1520 and no decoding of either 1510 or 1530.

Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1510 IBOC QUESTION
Well, if it's broken, let them (WLAC) leave it off. The old saying "If it aint broke, dont fix it" doesn't apply here, because normally, if something were broken...we'd want it fixed.. but not this!!! :=) Paul On Nov 11, 2007 12:35 PM, Powell E.
