KUYO's "critical hours" authorization is for 9.2 kilowatts non-directional, per the FCC -Paul Swearingen, Topeka -Original Message- From: Rick Dau To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America Sent: Tue, Mar 27, 2012 9:20 pm Subject: Re: [IRCA] 830 at 8:00 I know it SAYS watts on the link, but it HAS to mean kilowatts.

Re: [IRCA] 830 at 8:00
Actually Rick, Im betting it is 2 and 3 watts. I've reviewed PSSA and PSRA data and it is usually listed as XXX.XX Watts so 3.2 Would be 3.2 Watts. Who said they had to use it? That being said, stations with night power whos night power is higher then their PSSA can use the night power instead of PSSA power PSSA and PSRA power is usually never more then 500W... I worked at one station where Pre Sunrise was 500W.. Post Sunset was 12 watts. Paul On Tue, Mar 27, 2012 at 10:20 PM, Rick Dau wrote: > I know it SAYS watts on the link, but it HAS to mean kilowatts.
