[IRCA] 1640-1610 PA TIS question

2015-11-12 Thread Saul Chernos
On 1640 last week I heard a very clear loop recording as follows:
"This is WPWF986 broadcasting on 1610 AM. This message will repeat."
As advertised, it repeated over and over. Just that short message.
There is indeed a station with those calls on 1610. It's assigned to PA DoT and 
seems centred around Harrisburg.
However, I was definitely on 1640 - it was underneath Relevant Radio.
More info online 
at:http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/licenseAdminSum.jsp?licKey=2459271

Anyone else noticing this, or have further information?
With thanks,

I look for reasons to not count things like this as a new stn. For me, even if 
it was off for 50 years and then came back on the same freq serving the same 
market I'd not count it as new. Just my opinion.

[IRCA] 1640 WSJP WI on air

2014-06-05 Thread Saul Chernos
1640 WSJP WI is on the air with Relevant Radio programming (Catholic). Heard 
last night.

I guess with WKSH off for so long this would count as a new station?

I much prefer the meteor scatter burst heard while starting to type this. On 
106.5: "Mobile's best hamburger."

It jumped out of nothing on the radio in the next room, really loud. That's 
WAVH Daphne AL, 4-5 miles out of Mobile. Obviously, the best hamburger in 
Daphne wouldn't be much of a selling point.

[IRCA] 1640 KZLS OK flipping again

2014-01-31 Thread Glenn Hauser
** OKLAHOMA. 1640, Jan 31 at 2102 UT check, no news, just `True Oldies` music 
even at hourtop from KZLS Enid-Hennessey-Oklahoma City. But not for long! Tnx 
to Artie Bigley for finding this on the reactivated RadioInsight.com board for 
Oklahoma, posted by Lance Venta, yet *another* format change for 1640; call 
change coming too? ---

``Reid Mullins And Talk Coming To KZLS Oklahoma City
Last Updated on January 30, 2014 at 3:49 pm
Champlin Broadcasting will begin shifting "True Oldies 1640" KZLS Enid/Oklahoma 
City to Talk on Monday, February 3. Reid Mullins, who had hosted mornings at 
Clear Channel Talk 1000 KTOK until last August will join the station Monday for 
a daily program from 7 to 10 am [13-16 UT, probably meaning M-F only, not 
daily].

McCarvilleReport.com states that "The new show on KZLS will bring back the 
"information and news" paradigm that former KTOK listeners were accustomed to, 
Mullins said. Guests will include local, state, and national political figures, 
commentators, and experts in various fields and sectors from agriculture, 
energy, healthcare, immigration and more."

Mullins joining KZLS will kick off another format change at the station, which 
picked up the Oldies format and KZLS call letters when sister Classic Country 
"99.7 Hank-FM" KNAH debuted in late September. KZLS will shift to News/Talk in 
all dayparts by the end of February.``

One comment so far: ``It was a real treat to hear the Oldies on 1640 via 
skywave at night in the Dallas area. They had a real nice processor setting too 
and were not handicapped by the reduced analog bandwidth which so many AM 
stations seem to run as a default these days. Nothing like Oldies in marvelous 
mono on skywave. I knew it was too good to last :-( Jay Walker``. I guess the 
1630 DFW outlet is evitable (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

 1110 KFAB, 1160 KSL, 1170 KFAQ.
 
 Confirmed NOT with SOTU, some with stupid ballgames, some

 (WSM) with music: 650 WSM, 670 WSCR, 690 KGGF, 720 WGN, 760
 WJR, 840 WHAS, 1000 KTOK, 1100 WTAM, 1200 WOAI, 1510 WLAC.
 
 Due to the noise level could not tell which on 750 WSB, 870
 WWL.
 
 On the OK FM band, as expected, business as usual, except
 for 91.7 KOSU, the only one possibly carrying SOTU, with NPR

 something wrong with the feed --- maybe stereo input out of

 On shortwave, surprise2, none of the private US stations I

Hi Jim 
Congrats on logging your 48th contiguous state. That's a great feat no matter 
how long it takes to accomplish. I have 41 logged so far . With 9 left to log , 
it's not hard to guess from those remaining which will be the hardest for me to 
add to my list either. 
 
Great Job !

 Hi Nick,

 Unless the tones were being modulated over the normal programming heard
 from KDIA, KDZR, WTNI & KZLS then I think we can rule those four out, which
 leads me back to KBJA since Spanish programming wasn't heard here on the
 frequency during the tones and the signal was stronger towards the west.

Heard classical piano music on 1640 around the time of my local sunset this 
evening. It's recorded and I'll post audio shortly. I doubt it's directly 
IDable. But the channel bears more attention than it's been getting ... There's 
probably a slew of TIS/HAR stations that can be had, and perhaps the occasional 
pirate (I'm thinking mainly Haitian ones from the Boston area, but maybe there 
are others.

WKSH's temporary silence is an opportunity for all of us in the northeast and 
midwest.

So far I've IDed OK, MS and UT stations for relogs; and am still chasing ones 
in OR (prev heard actually) and CA. Plus the Dominican Republic, which I've 
heard from Newfoundland.

Have had HAR and NOAA stations from PA (various though nothing new), and a 
local TIS-type station in Strongsville OH (new).

I have clips posted in WTFDA Forums form a month ago, or so, of an 
unusual-sounding unID musical loop. It remains an unID.

Anyone else sitting on 1640 looking for DX

Re: [IRCA] 1640 unID - TIS possibly from Ohio

2013-10-29 Thread Chernos Saul
There's a whole whack of stations in PA on 1640, many of them in sync with 
one-another. I've had echo effects on some TIS/HARs in the X-Band. For some 
HARs I picture micro stations all along a highway, with NOAA there could be 
repeaters in multiple communities, without any real way to know from afar if 
you're hearing, say, Clearfield, or, say, Altoona.

What I'm hoping to discern from my audio clip is any call letters eras better 
than mine can make out. Even if I manage call letters, though, pinpointing an 
actual location isn't guaranteed. Nor do I require that for my own logs. I go 
with whatever information is available and possible. If that means the QTH goes 
down as Synchro, so be it. There are more Synchros in my logbook than 
Springfields ;-)

Wow, thats quite the vast forecast area. There is 1 640 in Clearfield, 
Harrisburg and philly... so sounds to me like it's all a network, with 
forecasts for the entire "network".

I'll have to check and see if I can hear Clearfield's 1640 from here.. im about 
45 minutes NW of it.

 Starts off with what is WQDY411 Strongsville Ohio. Looped TIS mentions 
Strongsville Library at 440-238-5530, Strongsville Historical Society at 
440-527-0057 and 12205 Pearl Rd. “You’re listening to 1640 AM...” This was new

 This seems to fade at 1:00 of the clip, and a woman's voice comes to the fore. 
She IDs with WQ-something and I hear something sounding like "Youngstown." I

Re: [IRCA] 1640 Lake Oswego, OR. to Michigan tonight

2013-10-28 Thread neilkaz
Last Halloween's SSS was the best I've ever experienced here and Halloween was 
lots better than the few days preceeding it, although those were decent like 
they've been this month.

Good job with Disney. Most clearly they don't seem to get out nearly as well as 
other west coast X-banders.

So far I can't find a trace of them, but I haven't carefully listened to Sat. 
night's recording on 1640 across 0130z yet, but nothing was noted when 
listening live. Utah is a nuisance on 1640 and KZLS was bothersome. KDIA was 
also noted with a black preacher while still on day power. 

Trivially easy west coast X-banders are KNTS 1680 and KFSG 1690 both of which 
were noted around 0200z Sat. morning when running just 1 kW night power and 
with me using just one Double KAZ antenna (100 deg BW) rather than the array 
(60 deg BW) due to wind causing the powerline near one of my two antennas to 
arc. Fresno comes in on 1680 but not usually as well as KNTS, however, I don't 
think Tim's antennas (back end of BOGs) are directed very well towards WA.

I'm home to DX tonight, Weds and Thurs and lets hope for great cx at sunset. 73

After a week of dedicated listening between 0115-0130 UTC on 1640, I
finally caught Radio Disney tonight for OR #2.  At 0125 UTC I heard pop
music which was // to 1690 KDDZ.  The signal was weak but still well
enough to trigger a lookup using the SoundHound song ID app which
returned "All Around the World" by a group called Mindless Behavior.
Reception only lasted a minute and it was gone.  1680 Fresno, CA. also
faded up briefly to a strong level at 0130 UTC with an ad for Fresno
First Bank.  A relog but not heard since last year during the last week
of October.  Last year's westward SSS DX was very memorable during this

Numbers 49 and 50 must be Alaska and Hawaii. I'm still looking for Alaska from 
California.

For the last several nights on 1640 ...

ESPN - WTNI (relog)

Weather - Penn DOT (relog, though I think there are a bunch of these)

Oldies - probably KZLS (previously logged as KFXY)

Does Disney simulcast from coast to coast, or are there time zone shifts?
I've been trying to match 1560 WQEW to 1640.  I have KDIA from quite some
time ago, on 1630 and 1640 if my mind is still reliable.  Need UT and OR on
1640.  1640 would be OR #1 if I can snag it, and state #48.  Guess which
states will be #49 and #50?  Unless my yahoo assemblyman and state senator
succeed in seceding WNY from the rest of the state.  Too many tin foil hats
circulating around here.  My vote for the new state name is the old Seneca
word "De-loo-shun".

Still going strong here... audio clip at:

Maybe a TIS that went bonkers?  BTW, it's only audible on LSB.

I have a really weird signal on 1640 here this evening at 1900 EST - there 
is
a beep once per second, but it has a strange warbly or "pumpy" quality to 
it.

Anybody else hearing it?

[IRCA] 1640 TIS unID in New England or northeast

2008-12-08 Thread Chernos Saul
1640 unID – 7 Dec 0753 – TIS underneath a PA TIS mentioned Interstate 89, 
which runs through VT and NH. Can’t find anything listed, which makes me 
wonder if there’s something new or if I misheard the interstate number.

Re: [IRCA] 1640 TIS

2007-07-02 Thread Mike Hardester
I agree with Patrick. My own experience has been some TIS operations do 
use brief instrumental music as a bridge into another announcement. 
Legal? No. I don't think that the FCC would get too excited about such. 
HOWEVER, entire selections would go a LITTLE too far.

The last time I read the FCC R&R for TIS stations, music was
specifically forbidden. The presence of music would make me wonder if
this is the Part 15 station that Tim mentioned.
