Thanks Paul...this certainly is not 82 watts so I assume they are
'forgetting' to switch power at SS.

Yup, I hear the WSLM mention in the weather forecast.

Routine. Not a night I don't hear it beating up Cleveland, even on my
south-north antenna. I don't spend time there unless I hear something other
than country or live Indiana sports.

On the other hand, Steve, 5 kw from Indiana out here, even on a
relatively open frequency like 1220kHz, is nothing to be sneezed at.

BUT ... if you're on the west coast (I looked at your web site but am not
positive where you are) ... hardly routine for you.

Hello All,
It was another vibrant session here as a potent sunrise enhancement boost
around 1430 brought the usual low band regulars on 594, 603, 693 and 747 up to
energetic levels Unlike yesterday the high band also enjoyed some action,
though, with the unusual performer 1593-NHK2 setting
I now have one problem fixed with the R8 fixed and it only took 15 hours to
fix the very low gain! Now one more problem and that is the on-off switch
which does not work right. But I now have a new ICOM IC-R-75 which is nice
but its not a Drake R8!

WFME-1560-NY signed on at noon, so the DX feast over the past ten days or
so of transition from Disney to Family Radio is over.
They don't sound like they're at full power, and there were a number of
glitches, but they are back.

nope, not routine at all, and I'll take it, cheating or not!...a new state

I wonder how these cheaters get away with it night after night...another
case of the FCC turning a blind eye or just too busy to check these things.

Used to be, WSLM would leave the day power up just for Indiana University
football and basketball broadcasts, but now they're doing it all the time. I

cheating. There's not a whole lot else to listen to on 1220 here at nig
I know that WSLM has been heard here in CA ( just not by me yet ) I think my
only Indiana so far is 1620. WJVA and WHLY swapped frequencies at some point
and the x bander ran a Dx test. Are they still on the air?? Ms

Surprised this morning to hear KFI 640 at 11:23 AM PST with a fair signal at a
distance of 850 miles. Best reception on the W-E K9 Loop.KFI is peaking at S-3
with the Palstar MW550P tuner peaked.

Dennis,
Good going. Since KFI installed the new shorter tower some years back, they
have not gotten out as well during the day. I used to hear at least their
carrier even most days in the Summer, but not since the new tower was
installed. It is nice to see a mid day reception of KFI.

Hi Bill,
I hope you get your R8 working well again. I was afraid that you would find the
R75 not as good as the R8. A lot of DXers get their modified to work better.

I'm willing to bet that the shorter tower affected skywave as well although
the same conditions and clutter from today will never be duplicated with
conditions and openness from the late 70's to early 80's.They used to be a
powerhouse going into eastern Iowa. Here in Minnesota I have 630 contend

KFI does not have the "punch" they used to have up here in the NW. They used to
be the strongest signal from So Cal, but KNX is stronger at night these days.

Thanks Dennis! Spent alot of time looking at your pictures. Really
appreciate the time you took to take those pictures if KFI.
It's amazing to me how 75' can make such a huge difference.
Does their newest transmitter also play a part in their decrease in
coverage?

First newie since the 3/22 KCKM-1330 DX test.
It was a long eleven months! Thanks to everybody
for all the attention paid to 1560 the past ten days,
especially those who suspected this station was
using the full 250 watts for HS basketball.

Today's DX was amazingly good by 2015 standards. It certainly wasn't up
to 2009 standards, but tit was one of the best mornings of the season
for Asian reception. It was so good, in fact, that I actually had audio
from the Korean on 603 (which is a very rare occurrence around here).

Dennis,
The KNX signal I was mentioning is at night. KNX up here is stronger than KFI.
During the day in the mid Winter I can sometimes receive KNX during mid day.
KFI used to always in, except in June/July and then I still got a carrier or
slight threshold audio. But that was before my noise l

Another reason for denying the 750 foot permit is that the airport the plane
flew from isn't very far away.
I don't know if KFI still has the Nautel NX50 50 kW transmitter that was there
in 2010. It probably does because Clear Channel is not known for spending
money. Some people use another wo
