Back in the mid 80s when CKST 1040 first came on the air, having moved frequency from 800 and location from Langley BC to Vancouver, they were playing modern rock music and used a tight east-west daytime signal which went all the way from west coast Van Island to Hope BC but was almost dead in Victoria but at or near LSS they would switch to a night time north south lobe which threw an almost local signal into Victoria while totally disappearing from a location in Chilliwack about 70 miles east of Vancouver.Since changing ownership and format to sports the night time signal switch was discontinued even though the recent TX site upgrade and testing showed that the north -south signal direction can still be done but is not on the day -night operation schedule as there is no difference between day and night signal strength now Bill in BC. _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca
