The CP to increase to 25 kW daytime was granted in November of 1994. The license to cover was granted almost exactly a year later.

Re: [IRCA] 1560 NYC off
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. -- Rick -Original Message- From: IRCA [mailto:irca-boun...@hard-core-dx.com] On Behalf Of Dennis Gibson Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2015 8:47 PM To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America Subject: Re: [IRCA] 1560 NYC off I don't know but asked someone who might.

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.

Re: [IRCA] 1560 NYC off
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?

Re: [IRCA] 1560 NYC off
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 South Omaha, Nebraska > From: wb6...@gmail.com > Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2015 16:45:43 -0800 > To: irca@hard-core-dx.com > Subject: Re: [IRCA] [mwdx] 1560 NYC off > > Quite a few stations west of WQEW are daytimers with critical hours > authority. > > A little trivia.
