Certainly the programming does, and there are always the kids who are up
late for one reason or another. But, when the question was asked, the
answer was that it was more reliable to keep the local affiliate on 24/7
than to sign off and then on. M

I think it has now been approved. Lucky you.

Mentioning Radio Disney, Radio Disney's station in Portland on 1640 had
a app for 10 KW day and night, but directional. The FCC dismissed it, so
they stay at 10/1 KW ND.

Bruce,
I had totally forgotten about the message in KXA's s/off. Yes, I believe
KLSN 96.5 was classical, KUOW, KING FM (Still Classical). Many of the
Puget Sound FMs boom into the coast. A lot of the FMs towers then were
on Cougar Mountain. Quite a few still are. I remember stopping in to
KXRX 96.
Bill,
Bob Kile who went on to KGON as Bob (something else). I remember the day
we were there. That was 37 years ago would you believe. I was all of 21.

Radio Disney also covers several time zones. At 10 pm in Honolulu it's 3 am in
New York, and when it's 3 am in Seattle it's 6 am in New York. Even when it's
the middle of the night in one city , it's either bedtime or earlier, or time
to wake the kiddies somewhere else in Radio Disney-land. S
KXA Seattle did something like this in the early 70s. At the time, they were a
daytimer on 770 and played mostly classical music. Their nightly sign-off
would invite listeners to tune in KCRL 780 in Reno for more classical music
throughout the night. KCRL obviously wasn't quite on the same ch

Dennis,
KGA used to be a solid regular nightly pre KPIGs nighttime operation. Now on
my Drake R-8A I can get either depending on how I rotate my Kiwa antenna. On
the car radio at night KGA often disturbs KPIG severely, at least in western
San Francisco.

Dennis,
Portland has quite a colorful history in radio. KVAN 1480 Vancouver was
another. That is a totally different story. hi. Busted by the FCC more
than about any station in history. Once they were operating in a tralier
and moved constantly to stay ahead of the FCC. Much like a pirate
station.
Pat & Bill,
Thanks for sharing the information about local Portland area stations When I
first moved up here I found a web-site that showed the KGA tower being toppled.
The site explained the extensive copper ground system and how hard it was to

Paul,
It would be nice if more stations did your style sign-off. The 24/7 stations
could a 2 minute recording and run at midnight.

Marc,
Actually it was a clever idea for the small daytime only station. KNBA's
audience might listen to KEX at night and in the morning when they turn on
their radios KNBA would be there. KEX really puts a nice signal into the San
Francisco area. Guys like me though would tune to XERB-1090 a
Herd.

Your local on 1550 Vancouver has an interesting history. They operated
from an old house in North Portland as a 1 KW daytimer. They were Top 40

at 10th and West Burnside in downtown Portland. Of course to compete,

right before the station would sign off. At the end of the KNBA's sign-off
announcement the announcer would say "Stay tuned for KEX". as so
