[IRCA] CKVH-1020-High Prairie, AB

2010-11-11 Thread Mike Stonebridge
It would appear that this station has pulled their AM plug even though it's 
only been a month since the new FM officially signed on. No sign of it 
yesterday or again this morning. My home here is only 50 miles from High 
Prairie and there wasn't even a trace of a carrier on the Perseus waterfall. 

However I'm not complaining! It's demise enabled me to log my first new 1020 
station in many years. Yesterday evening I logged KJJK Fergus Falls, MN with a 
full ID @ 17:00MST. A surprisingly good signal for the 370 watts it should have 
been on at that time.

Thanks Mike for the heads up. Glad I have them QSL'd. They are dominant
when cx are good to the North, sometimes mixing with Anchorage (when
on). 

73,

I think FM's usually simulcast the AM or AM's simulcast the FM... for a
period of 90 days.. before the AM goes silent.

Noted today CKVH testing on 93.5 parallel to 1020 AM. ID'd as 1020-The Fox and 
mentioned they were testing their new FM transmitter. Just a matter of time 
before the AM is silent. I figure by the end of the year, or perhaps late 
January.
