I was picking them up at around 7:10, playing an older standards type song The announcer came on, which I immediately recognized as a Westwood One air talent from their "Americas Best Music" satelitte format. I never heard a station slogan or calls mentioned, but I recognized the annoucners voice immediately as well as the slogan he used... "Right here on the station playing America's Best Music" into another song.
KKOV's website matches up with the jock and music I heard. It was easy for me to pick out since I worked with the format for over a year at WKBI 1400 Saint Marys, PA. At about 7:13, KKOV suddenly disappear.. meaning I think they switched form their 50KW 1 tower day power/pattern to their 12KW/4 tower pattern beaming north. It would appear their transmitter remote control system likely things it's still August, as August's power down time for KKOV is 7:15, in September it's supposed to be 6:30. So if you need KKOV, this might be a good chance to log them. While KKOV was still on it's 50KW Non Directional day pattern, it was fighting it out with KZDG 1550 San Francisco and it's Asian format along with spanish on 1550 which I am assiming to be 1550 KXEX Fresno, CA on proper night pattern, if they are in fact spanish. .some sources say they are sports. KXEX's sunset time is 6:45 in August and 6:15 in September. If it wasn't KXEX, it was KMRI 1550 West Valley City/Salt Lake City, UT still on 10KW Non directional day power. KMRI's sunset time is 6:30 in August and 5:45 in September Paul Walker Redding, CA All times mentioned are using pacific time _______________________________________________ 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]
