Santa Barbara is just a bit different...kinda like Haight-Ashbury meets Beverly 
Hills.  They're pretty rare 250 miles to the north.  KPAY/Chico puts out a 
helluva signal, and I'm in the crosshairs of KAZA/Gilroy.  Its nice when 
they're off.  Now if I could catch KNBR, KCBS or KGO off.  Very good catches 
happen here when any of them are off.

[IRCA] Local KAZA/1290 off

2006-10-31 Thread Michael Hawkins
But still has OC running.  Spotted:
   
  * KPAY/Chico CA (yawn) with Coast to Coast AM
  * KKDD/San Bernardino CA (yawn) with Radio Dizknee
  * KCUB/Tucson AZ with sports
  * KZSB/Santa Barbara CA (all 122 watts of it) with BBC news
   
  Lotsa hets, audio on 774 and 1242.  Judging by the sound of it, its possible 
that 693 might break through XETRA/CBU (if adjacent 50KW KNBR @ 22 miles allows 
it).

Mike,
Good description of Santa Barbara. More specifically, is it rich drug 
addicts or just rich hippies? hi.

Do sound the alarm if any of those stations are off (which I'm sure you 
will).  I don't believe I have EVER heard any of them off.

And speaking of rich...to get back to the question of why KZSB 1290, a 
commercial station, was carrying BBC news, it's because the station is 
the playtoy of one of Santa Barbara's richest and most eccentric people, 
Wendy McCaw, owner (unfortunately) of the Santa Barbara News-Press. 
Google her, if you're interested, to learn more about this very 
interesting woman and what she's done to what was once a fairly decent 
paper.

In any event, Ms. McCaw can program pretty much whatever she darned well 
pleases on her station, and evidently she does.
