I'm playing with radio station history again and I'm doing battle with
myself about how to document station swaps. I'll give two examples.
Example #1: A few years back, KLOC/920/Ceres CA format moved to
KVIN/1390/Turlock CA, and the KVIN format moved over to KLOC. The call
letters swapped with
At 04:15am CST someone is running a tone test. Steady tone,
occasional shifting frequency up/down, occasionally
on/off.
Loop bearing nw/se under KXEL.

Am hearing wierd tones on both 1520 USB and 1540 LSB. Could
this be generated by someone on 1530khz.

As for myself, I counted both KERN and KERI as new loggings at their new dial
positions. I'll always think of KERN as being 1410 since they were there
forever it seems. There have been so many two-way and even three-way frequency
swaps in recent years that one cannot always keep track. I'll
To me these are call changes. I note them in my logs, ( and would do so again
should they change again down the road ) but I don't count them in my totals.
I know that others do things differently, but many do it this way also.
At one time, I counted call changes, however I realized that as the
My approach is, I guess, to log the actual stick in
the ground (the tower/antenna) on a given frequency.
If the same antenna switches frequency, then for me
it would be a new station. However, I treat call
sign changes about the same way I would treat format
changes, and note them as sorta

For me, if the station changes frequency or city of license, then I count as a
new station.
As for Call letter or format changes I do re-log the station but it does not
add to my totals since there is no change at the transmitter site.
This is my 2 cents worth.

Cedar Creek,
I like that Facility ID number as the identifier. Hmmany way to get
that incorporated into the AM Log?

Same principle here as in Kevin's first paragraph but unless it moves
more than ~25-30 miles, I do not count local location / facilities
changes on the same frequency. If a 250 watter in Iowa went to 10 Kw
(or vice versa) on the same channel, I do not count it as new. I do
count frequency
Scott,
I used your reply as a reference here because it addresses two things.
First is that FCC's website has so little information on it that is
accessible outside the FCC that its rather useless. Tracking applications
always results in major change, minor change, STA or license. I have

Scott,
Thank you for this. I'm at work right now, so I have to remember my
priorities, but I will try a few examples on the FCC site tonight when I
have time. I have tracked almost all of the AM stations that have existed
in US and Canada (its well over 20,000 entries), keeping track of changes

Since you've raised a new question, I'll respond. I don't count power/pattern
changes. Mostly this is so because there's no easy way to identify them all,
and good way to design criteria to be reasonable. If a semi-local goes from
semi-regular to pest status, so what ? If a local changes and I
This is from another list, but I know there are a number of, ahem, we radio

equally appreciated.
