Re: [IRCA] XE-1700
Pete - XEPE is on 1700. Their towers are visible here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=qhl=enq=32.53778,+-116.98972+(XEPE-AM)om=1 73 - Original Message - Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 19:21:16 -0800 From: Pete Taylor p...@comcast.net Subject: [IRCA] XE-1700 To: NRC a...@nrcdxas.org, IRCA of America irca@hard-core-dx.com I am curious as to the actual location of the XE on 1700 (XEPE? XEKTT?) serving San Diego. It is seemingly licensed to Tecate, but the map does not exactly show Tecate as a suburb of Tijuana. Southern Californians, can you enlighten me? Thanks. (This is sort of moot since the station is now blocked by a very efficient Part 15 station about a half a mile away from me here in Brown's Point/Tacoma).

Re: [IRCA] XE-1700
Dennis, So they are directional, presumably northward? Do they ID as Tecate or Tijuana?

Re: [IRCA] XE-1700
The Google map shows two towers but I'm sure Bill is right. Maybe they built a second as a backup or perhaps they were once directional. There is a graveyarder not far from here (KVEN-1450) that was once directional. See: http://www.fybush.com/sites/2004/site-041119.html XEPE is very strong here. Broadcasting in Mexico can be a guessing game with their government operating as it does; lots of corruption and incompetence. Of course the FCC can be difficult to deal with too. - Original Message - Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 20:10:23 -0800 From: mwd...@webtv.net (Patrick Martin) Subject: Re: [IRCA] XE-1700 To: irca@hard-core-dx.com (Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America) Pete, According to Bill Lipis, their CE, 1700 is 10 KW ND 24/7. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL Manager ___ 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
