I'm wondering if anyone has heard this station. I notice that the 2006 NRC AM
radio list doesn't list 1450 as an active station. However, watching the
Discovery Channel's excellent series about the Alaska Crab fishery clearly
shows KIAL 1450 on the air at the beginning of one of the program's
KIAL 1450 is 50 Watts into a longwire antenna per a special authorization
theyve had since 1977.
They have been unable to find suitable land to build a tower. The 4200 watts
was a CP they got last year but haven't built yet. They hope to file for an
FM license in the upcoming NCE FM Window.

Walt,
The station is supposed to be on the air with a longwire antenna
(Unalaska, rather than Dutch Harbor), but with 50 watts on a graveyard
frek, it would no be easy. Also they are co-channel KLAM Cordova, 250w
that no one has logged down here either, as far as I know.
When I lived in Seward
KLAM and KCDV are both on the air 24/7

Paul,
I knew KLAM was 24/7 now. They have been 24/7 for quite a few years.
They were locally owned by a guy that ran a repair shop in Cordova I
believe back in the 60s when I QSL'd KLAM.

Thanks Pa
KIAL's website is http://www.kial.org/ and includes some info on the
upgrade (it sounds like they may move to FM at some point, due to lack
of a suitable site for a new AM tower.
The programming looks fairly typical for Alaskan community stations (a
mix of NPR shows interspersed with all-over-t
Bruce,
Thanks. Now, there would be a job at Unalaska. For the people that want
to get away from it all. But I'll bet, DX would be good, if you could
take the weather.
