I DX'ed late Saturday night, early Sunday morning with my new Eton E-100, from Gary DeBock. I was rewarded with one new one to the overall logbook and several new ones to the ULR specific logbook. The E-100's selectivity really stood out. I have a local on 1260 w/IBOC. It ruins 1250, 1270 and 1280 on most radios @ night but I was able to hear a new one on 1270, by slightly nulling the 1260's sideband. The null was just deep enough to tone down the IBOC, no other radio has been able to do that. For the first time since both my local WFNI 1070 and WTAM started 24/7 IBOC, I have been able to hear audio on 1090. The radio is fairly sensitive but maybe not as much as the similar sized cassette Walkman (WM-FS593) that I have. That one is fairly selective but not quite as good as the Eton.
The new one was KRVT Claremore, OK. I had a station playing oldies all night on 1270. TOH always saw the station fade down but I finally caught an ID at 0200 EST. Barry's site has them as Standards - 1. it could be that another Oldies / Pop station was heard and instead I caught KRVT's ID at the TOH, 2. they just had a different weekend format or 3. they just outright changed formats. I also had SS (Regional Mexican / Tejano) on 1440 but again no ID was heard. Maybe Greenville, SC but their website makes them sound like they play up-tempo, rock SS music. Cowan, TN popped up w/ their WZYX ID at 0303. They are new to the ULR log and probably only on their night power of 66 watts as the heavily-produced ID was the only thing to cut through the din. 1270 KRVT OK Claremore 2-14 0200 G w/ "KRVT Claremore - Tulsa" ID at the TOH. Had been hearing an Oldies/Pop stn. all night. Not sure if that was KRVT or not. New!
