Hi Walt,
Aren't CFAX & CKMO's tx sites on islands right off the coast of
Victoria? I seem to remember hearing that from Nick I believe. On the
map, I see a couple small islands not far off the coast. C-FAX has a
tighter pattern with a bullet right up Vancouver Island. I do remember
C-FAX being qui
Very close, Patrick. CFAX, which is much closer to me geographically is
just a smidgeon under S9 + 50 compared to S9 + 50 for the "more distant"
ie about 3 km vs less than 1 km for CFAX. Walt

Walt,
Is CKMO stronger for you than C-FAX? It is here by far. Infact as a
person drives North, CKMO is easily listenable on a car radio. CFAX
isn't, until you get quite far to the North.
Yes, CKMO does have an interesting format. It is different than most
stations. I just hope 900 stays clear
Patrick, you're correct that they're not announcing anything on air. As
strong as ever tonight at S9 + 50 at my Victoria QTH. Counting down the
days. I'm going to miss themprobably the most interesting AM signal I
receive here with plenty of variety including BBCWS news. Too bad, but

Glenn, it IS KVDW, no doubt about it. This station was widely reported by
DXers in the Midwest and South on the evening of February 5-6 running day power
hours after it should have gone off for the evening. I logged them at 0347 UT
on 2/6 with black gospel music and an ad for a local business
A friend of mine is in North Little Rock about 14 air miles from KVDW
and he says KVDW is coming in louder and clearer then 1090 KAAY.
He confirms what is being heard is "VERN 1530" (KVDW is owned by Vernon Wells)

Bill,
I have heard Bakersfield only once in all of my years at the dials. They

I was born in December 1964 so I was a little late in joining the Space
Race, but I have seen some amazing things since then. I even got to touch the
Atlantis when it was in the VAB on a trip to the Cape a few years ago, and I
even talked them into letting us visit the landing strip.
Its a pleasure Ira. I remember it all so well from hearing Sputnik on the
radio, then watching Yuri Gagarin on a black and white TV, through all the US
and Russian flights, space is still so exciting and man will never comprehend
its size and magnificence. Would love to fly on Richard Branson's
Thanks for the article. This was just a couple of years before my time,
but once I got a little older, space was something I thought about a lot. Maybe
I'll make it there some day...

I noticed that CKMO Victoria was not all that strong last night and off
the Eastern Beverage was quite a jumble at times with CKMO/XEW trading
places at times, but otherwise it sounded like a GY frequency. I could
hear Wenatchee WA in there with ESPN on occasion, but it was
interesting, but no new
