Hi Pete I remember reading something about KUOW-1340 planning to or having added IBOC, but I can't remember where I saw it and it seems like it's been quite a while (like a year or so) since I read it. Somehow I thought it was mentioned in the Seattle PI radio column, but I couldn't find a reference to it on their website just now.
Regarding the 750 growl, I found the following e-mail posted by Al Lehr to this group on March 26, 2006 "Since the first day that I heard them, KHWG 750 in Fallon, NV has been operating at about 20.2 to 20.8 Hz high. KOAL 750 in Price, UT is normally within a fraction of 1 Hz of their nominal frequency. For over 5 years they have occasionally been jumping up to around +83 to +90 Hz. Now I am hearing KHWG running day and night on about 750.086 kHz. My speculation on what may have happened: KHWG learned that they were off frequency. Lacking a frequency counter, they went off the air, tuned a receiver to 750, and zero beat their exciter with the carrier of another station on 750. Unfortunately, that station turned out to be KOAL during one of their excursions up to +86 Hz. It is risky to clone another station's frequency." Take yourt pick, KOAL or KHWG Bruce Pete Taylor wrote: > Visited with some friends in Olympia last night and noticed that > KUOW-1340 was running IBOC.
