Re: [IRCA] IRCA # 64-33-8 CFUN-CKST

Here on the Northern OR Coast, CKST & CFUN are strong at night, but days CKST nulls the South and is very tough to hear well. Add to that a 2.2 KW Portland station also on 1040, which drops to 200w at night. 1410, it is CFUN/Portland mix days and CFUN alone at night, but CFUN is weak days too. It w

Well, if it's a Part 15 hobby station or even a pirate, I don't suspect they're running too much power, so they'd have to be fairly close to where John is. Sincerely, Paul B. Walker, Jr. www.onairdj.com walkerbroadcast...@gmail.com On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 5:36 PM, Scott Fybush wrote: > Paul B.

I've tracked the station for 3 days and haven't been able to pin down a TOH ID. There are some long fades (up to 15 minutes at a time) and they always occur at the TOH- of course! I agree it's probably a new format flip. Hopefully some announcements or ads will start to appear, if this is perman

Re: [IRCA] Frank FM 97.1 on 1310- Still ???

A few thoughts here. 1) If there's any way to get an approx DF from DE that might help, John. 2) Since the anmt says "all new.." and there seem to be no anmts. This is likely a very recent format change, perhaps also an ownership change since there's no ads. I'd expect that in a week or two you

This morning, it seems, I missed the boat starting to listen just after 13:00. All I heard were a few weak audios, including 1566 (good carrier, but very low modulation for sure), and mostly DU on the lower half of the band. 585 seemed to be the strongest of the weak lot, perhaps one of the NZ

CFUN and CKST do not have local signals here in Victoria so maybe after they fire up their new transmitters they will be listenable in this location.Since going on ther air in Vancouver in 1986 with a rock music format, CKST 1040(formerly CKST 800and ex CJJC 800 Langley BC) was on an east -west
