Mt. Angel, OR is about 289 miles from Vancouver, BC. Vancouver is 357.4 degrees North of Mt. Angel, OR. KPWX signal is strongest 40 degrees to 60 degrees which is Northeast. I have taken pictures of KPNX towers, they look rather small when compared to KEX's towers, but it seems that the signal gets out great.

Re: [IRCA] Re Spanish music on 1130
Bruce, Wow! KPWX is that strong, so close to CKWX. No wonder, they over-power CKWX here. Even with a phase, it is impossible to get CKWX in the clear during the day now. Really sad, as CKWX put is such a good signal, even heard on the car radio. Do we really need another SS station? Apparently someone thinks so. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com 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: irca@hard-core-dx.com

Re: [IRCA] Re Spanish music on 1130
It's more a case of KPWX sending lots of power to the north, rather than not powering down I checked the car radio at 5:45 tonight when I left work. KPWX was already loud, and overpowered CKWX about 90 percent of the time. Much of the time, KPWX was near local strength with little or no trace of CKWX. Occasionally it faded down allowing CKWX to fade up for a few sentences. This was no small feat, since CKWX has (had?) a very listenable signal during the day here in Seattle. For the record, I'm 120 miles south of CKWX and 160 miles north of KPWX. I rechecked 1130 at 7:25 PDT tonight and the two stations were fighting it out. At 7:30 CKWX was suddenly alone, and has been ever since (it's now 8:15), so KPWX definitely dropped power tonight. Frome what I heard in the car, KPWX will give CKWX fits during mornings and afternoons, which can only intensify as the days get shorter. I can understand why listeners in the Fraser Valley are complaining. Bruce On 9/29/2010 1:34 PM, Paul B. Walker, Jr. wrote: Do we have evidence to suggest they aren't powering down?

Make that KPWX. Anyone in the central US or further west and not pounded by a local on 1130 (WI has a HUGE null my way at night) should try for them from about 15 minutes prior to their sunset switch.
