Mr. Tucker is blind - and is in his eighties. He may find it annoying because so many DX'ers hear his station because he does not power down every night. Maybe he thinks that he is entitled to run day powers at night, due to interference. Here is an article that 'splains the interference issue but doesn't speak to the powering down issues. :)

Following it up with our Scandinavian friends at Distance I now know why!

To: "BARRY DAVIES" <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, 22 March, 2011, 22:35 Hello Barry, unfortunately WMOB has made it quite clear, in e-mail to Jan Edh, that they doesn't want any reception reports. This is what the owner Buddy Tucker wrote to Jan a couple of months ago; "YOUR RECEPTION OF MY STATION IS OF NO INTEREST TO ME!THESE E-MAILS ARE BECOMING ANNOYING!!!!? I GET AT LEAST 10 A DAY! PLEASE QUIT."? :-( ? Best wishes, Lars ? ? ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2011 06:52:35 -0500 From: "Paul B.

Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 WMOB never drops power and doens't think they have to. Im not sure their sister station WYND 1310 Deland, FL ever drops power. I think WMOB's owner Buddy Tucker is blind and may be very frustrated by tons of emails when he has to listen to them via a screen reader. _______________________________________________ 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]
