[IRCA] WWCS-540 Canonsburg, PA WPDX-750 Clarksburg, WV

2011-02-03 Thread Fred Schroyer
Two station notes for south of Pittsburgh, PA. WPDX-750: after many months
silent, I heard them back on with regular programming this morning.
WWCS-540: Radio Disney moved from this dial spot to 1250 in Pittsburgh, and
now 540 is blessedly quiet here for the first time in decades! I live in the
gunsight of this baby blowtorch, which filled 540 24/7 and splattered
530/550 enough to make DX very difficult. Driving home from work tonight, I
heard WGOP (Pocomoke City, MD), likely WGTH (Richlands, VA), and WFLF
(Orlando), with others bubbling in the noise. And on 530, presumed CIAO
(Toronto). What a nice change to have an open channel!

 540 WWCS Canonsburg, PA noted with Radio Disney programming // to WDDZ-550
 which is 8 seconds behind.

Noted again earlier this evening on the truck radio.  Same thing, audio 8
seconds ahead of the Radio Disney audio from WDDZ-550.  Maybe the pattern
change clock for WWCS is off?  Perfectly listenable for a bit which isn't
going to happen with their night power/pattern.  Last night they dropped off
suddenly at 9:27pm.  Was busy tonight and couldn't check again until much
later.  Already gone by then.

Can anyone give them a listen Saturday just after sunset?

540 WWCS Canonsburg, PA noted with Radio Disney programming // to WDDZ-550
which is 8 seconds behind.  Not usually heard here at night.  Dominant and
actually listenable quality.  Suddenly dropped right off at 9:27pm.   Maybe
a late pattern change?   9:23-9:27pm EDT 02 Apr 2009.
