Re: [IRCA] WA stations turned off
*03/29/15 - The two New Age Media Ltd. stations in western Washington recently went dark. The Whale KWLE AM 1340 http://thewhale1340.com/ Anacortes left the air due to undisclosed power issues and is not expected to return any time soon. KRPA AM 1110 Oak Harbor has an antenna issue and likely will return to the air in the near future. Both stations had been airing music programming from The Whale. The on-line audio feed has also stopped. New Age Media Group acquired the two stations from Satnam Media Group Inc. last May, with the FCC granting approval of the sale two months later. * On Tue, Mar 31, 2015 at 11:30 PM, Patrick Martin mwd...@webtv.net wrote: According to the NW Broadcasters site, several more smaller WA stations have gone silent.

Re: [IRCA] WA stations turned off
Thanks Paul. Then we can add two more to the list. That is five! There is are a mention that Kirkland WA 1460 has returned to the air. I could regularly get their 5 KW on 1460 here, but I have not caught them if they have returned.

Re: [IRCA] WA stations turned off
1340 is a bit of a rather pleasant mess in Victoria. Nearest to dominant was presumed CINL with Canadian Press items at 7pm Pacific time. best wishes, Nick KBRO definitely off now. They typically dominate the frequency here in N Seattle. Did not hear KLDY, KNTB or 1460-Kirkland today as well, although I didn't spend enough time on frequency to be 100% sure. These are usually heard but usually somewhat weak... and I didn't hear anything on my car radio. Only heard sports on 1340, so perhaps Anacortes is also off.

Re: [IRCA] WA stations turned off
Thanks Nick. Unfortunately, none of the bunch being off will have no effect here. KLDY 1280 is about the only one that had any signal, and even then they weren't much. KIT is stronger.

Re: [IRCA] WA stations turned off
Thanks. Kirkland here then would be DX. hi. They were not all that great with 5KW directional in the past.

No trace of KBRO-1490, and they have a reasonable signal here. Not pleasure listening for most people, but fully readable; or at least they were! 2. The 1460 in Kirkland is back on, sort-of.

I wonder if they're even listenable in Kirkland, day or night. But I'm sure that officially they're no longer silent ... but who would know? Bob Dylan said You gotta serve somebody.
