Bill, CFPR 860 is a powerhouse here on the OR coast nights. They pretty much dominate the channel to the North. 10 KW ND does well. They used to be heard days before KPAM signed on years ago. According to the CFPR CE from several years back, CFPR has never dropped power to 1 KW at night. Even though some listed them as so. They do have 1 KW as an aux. tx, but they have always been 10 KW ND Day/Night. The 1 sec delay may be from the signal coming from the satellite, since all of the relays are in sync. In comparing NW 98 via ANIK F1 and direct on 980, there is a 1 sec. delay. CBXQ 540 CBC 40w on the West Coast of Vancouver Island is groundwave here on the OR Coast. Has been the 40 years it has been on 540. Bill Block and I drove to CA in June 1970. we carried the LPRT 540 during the day to the OR/CA border, especially if we were right along the coast. It would fade, as we dropped inland in places though. They are generally about S5 on the R8 days. QRMed at night by CBK though. I have several of the LPRTs QSL'd from BC through the years, but some ran more than the 40w.
