Hello from Bend OR. The topic of listening to the 1400 khz graveyard channel was interesting. About a year and a half ago, a group of local radio friends and I decided to monitor a "Frequency of the Month", the one who logged the most stations would get a free donut at our monthly coffee meeting. We picked 1400 one month and I logged the following from central OR: KLCK Goldendale, WA (oldies), KJDY John Day, OR (country, local news), KNND Cottage Grove, OR (talk w/ local programs), KBCH Lincold City, OR (oldies), KIHH Eureka, CA (religion) and KQMS Redding, CA (news/talk). I won the free donut, and we agreed to never pick a GY channel for a frequency again.
It is truly difficult to pick out any GY ID's at night with the current state of broadcasting. In the morning or late afternoon, you can pick out the regional "dominants" that fade in and out and can provide good listening for an hour or so. 73, Randy Tomer Bend, OR _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
