1KW could give Chico issues easily, but I am sure KAZA was not 20 watts. 1310 
Prosser WA has been running 5 KW ND 24/7 for the past several weeks.

 KAZA needs to be extremely careful. It was just issued a Notice of Apparent 
 Liability for $18,000. The violations are failure to renew the license on 
 time and big time public file problems.   
 
 It lost its transmitter site and under an STA is running 25% of the licensed 
 power (20 watts at night) nondirectional diplexed at KZSJ-1120. I can't 
 imagine 20 watts nondirectional giving Chico grief up there. 25% of day power 
 is 1,250 watts. The difference is a mere 17.95 dB!

Starting Tuesday evening I'll be visiting my Mom near Santa Cruz and will check 
out KAZA. From there I've sometimes suspected day power (5 kW) at night. It 
owned the frequency at night in Santa Maria once when I was passing through. 
That seemed unlikely with the licensed 88 watts.

2014-11-23 Thread Brian Rachford
FWIW, I logged KAZA from 544 miles away on Thursday night (20th) just after
9pm local time (4UT), or 8pm for them.  (Many mentions of San Jose and
finally the call letters in English.)  This was with semi-local KCUB nulled
out, although the transmitters are 140 degrees apart for me.  I just went
there now, and I seem to be getting them although with a lot of major
fading between it and KCUB (10:43pm MST/0543 UT).  Right now I'm basing the
ID on the ethnic music.  Other than KCUB, 1290 is a rather clean frequency
for me.

Good going on the KAZA logging. No small task with KCUB there I'm sure. I can 
still remember when I first logged KCUB on my old Halicrafters S38E years ago. 
I thought it was the bees knees (1920s lingo for awesome) ms

 out, although the transmitters are 140 degrees apart for me.  I just went
 there now, and I seem to be getting them although with a lot of major

 for me.

 KAZA needs to be extremely careful. It was just issued a Notice of
 Apparent Liability for $18,000. The violations are failure to renew the
 license on time and big time public file problems.
 
 It lost its transmitter site and under an STA is running 25% of the
 licensed power (20 watts at night) nondirectional diplexed at KZSJ-1120.
 I
 can't imagine 20 watts nondirectional giving Chico grief up there. 25% of
 day power is 1,250 watts. The difference is a mere 17.95 dB!

It can't be running 20 watts. After being hit with an $18,000 Notice of
