** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, the Part 15 in Enid is still transmitting in
downtown but after some undermodulated music yesterday, On Feb 14
circa 2045 UT it`s back to dead air.
1670 AM, Virtual DJ Radio, keeps plugging away with rockish music
whenever checked, strongest at US 81/412 junxion (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 105.5, Feb 15 circa 1700 UT on caradio, K288FX Enid is
still off, audiblizing Stillwater`s KGFY [NOT KFGY, my typo]. BTW,
105.5 there was originally KVRO, student station at OSU vs pro KOSU
91.7. KGFY calls started 03/01/89. KGFY address of record is in
Springfield MO! Despite licensee name Stillwater Broadcasting LLC.
91.1, Feb 15 circa 1700 UT on caradio, another Enid station is OFF,
KKRD of Air1. Clears the way for another gospel huxter, talker on
91.3; WTFDA FM DB possibilities:
KAKO Ada OK, 0 Horiz but 100 kW Vertical, AFR, 210 km/131 stmi
KAXR Arkansas City KS 13.5/13.5 kW, also AFR, 106 km/66 stmi
AFR = American Family Radio
KRSO Clinton OK 25/25 kW, no details
However FCC LMS for 91.3 in Clinton shows a CP with NO CALLSIGN! Fac
ID 768299: ``full power`` but no figures, small coverage area. Lic:
Missions Unlimited of Oregon! CP expires 04/08/25; update as of
01/13/25.
As for KKRD, FCC shows it Licensed and Silent! But today is the first
time I have noticed it missing. K288FX also Licensed and Silent! Guess
what, both are at exactly the same NAD83 Co?rdinates:
36 23' 57.1" N 97 52' 49.2" W
That would be the Broadway Tower, one of four skyscrapers in downtown
Enid, a block away from the 95.1 Tree of Lights. BW Tower is a sad
case, originally an office building including for an uncle of mine,
later vacant and trying to repurpose as hotel but still apparently
shuttered. Now it`s not even funxioning as a broadcast tower. Could be
engineers are having trouble getting into the `penthouse` transmitter
room and roof (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

S9+30/50! into Georgia SDR; still NO signal on 12030, JBA on 17715 &

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` WBCQ chex, UT Sat Feb 15 at 0051 into Maryland
SDR: 3265, 5130 and 6160 off. 7490 -71 Hz = 7489.929, S9/+20 with FKB;
9330.00 only S9+10 with WLCR in Portuguese. By 0059, 5130.007 is on at
S8/9+5, and 0100 joins 7490- for AAAWWW WTO theme. Talkovers: ``Love
is in the air`` and ``Cupid``; then Happy VD, and Happy WR Day. Last
Saturday he flew from Bangor back to Fla and everyone on the flight
was coughing, hacking and sneezing, so knew he was going to catch
something, which he did with sore throat, nasal, chest and larynx. And
still not feeling well or with good voice. Trimulcasting with 9330 he
says again and this is true. Wants to play love songs, 0111 Love
Potion #9; 0114 trimul on 9, 7 and 5. 0124 says that again, email
invited. Wandering conversation about radio, etc., and tho in same
studio as Angela, we hardly hear her, except when he asks what song
she wants to play next, and she answers to him, not to us. 0139 date
stamp as 14 of Feb. Says keeps WBCQ rates low by eliminating a lot of
people, mostly automated except for 9330 SuperStition which must have
someone running it 24/7, etc., etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 810.60, Feb 15 at 0641 UT, mystery carrier audible
again? against 810.00 WHB, KC, MO, not earlier in evening. I DF it
again on the D808, roughly 100/280 to 105/285 degrees from Enid. Not
up to checking multiple remotes this time except for Northern Utah #1
which heard it before and is hearing it again, but not enough to lock
onto it separately from KSFO. At final check direct 0705, more like
810.59 kHz. Greg Hardison and Ron Howard checked CO remote for KLVZ
Brighton [Denver] CO, and found it not off-frequency, but could its
running IBOC have something to do with this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
