It's unlikely that WOR 710 will drop HD Radio any time soon.
Clear Channel is a big player in the (God forsaken) HD Digital Radio Alliance.
They are the cheerleaders for iBiquity and company.
Without HD Radio, how could station owners break the rules to get HD-2s and
HD-3s

Hi Karl and all
I sometimes listen to WCBS 880 over the internet, but annoyingly they block the
local adverts and insert public notices or music which sometimes stops abruptly.
Back in the 60s here I heard the real thing on MW, far more exciting days than
the internet now. Sadly there are
DISCUSSION OF DAILY SOLAR SPACE AND GEOMAGNETIC WEATHER-
For Monday February 11, 2013
Solar activity is high as far as the emergence of the number of new sunspot
groups. Currently there are 6 new un-numbered sunspot groups and 5 existing
numbered sunspot groups.
Solar activity is low as far
I was able to hear JOAK, 594 kHz, Tokyo J, at 1306-1316 GMT,
with a man speaking in JJ. The signal rose to a fair level briefly
before faing away. It was the best signal from Japan heard in
some time.
A heterodyne was audible on 828 kHz at 1318-1323 and a barely
audible signal was heard
Can we have the best of both worlds - keep Tom Ray and lose WOR? I had a sports
station underneath to the west in the wee hours, very briefly, and the likely
options would be WA CA or ND.

Hi Paul:
I thought that might be the case. I wonder how long oldies will last when they
get back on the air. Oldies has failed twice in the Huntington-Ironton-Ashland
market twice in the past ten years.

David,
It obviously isn't making them anymore or WLGC would be back on the air
already. If a company has money and the station is making money.. it doesnt
take but maybe a few weeks to a month to get a transmitter fixed or a new
one bought.
The stream has no local content, so they are just

Very true, Bill! At 14:45 UTC, many stations at great levels. I'm even
hearing second tier NHK stations, such as 1602 at weak levels. Also 1593
China at fair to good level, etc. Looks like a great morning! 73! Walt

Hello All,
As Richard, Bill, Walt and Dennis have already reported, it was a pretty
vibrant morning for Asian TP's. Best signals here were from a couple of Korean
big guns-- 972-HLCA at 1418 and 1566-HLAZ at 1505, both of which approached
monster levels.

** OKLAHOMA. 1650, Feb 12 at 1303 UT, our other X-band station has finally been
reactivated after losing its transmitter site to flooding. (DX MidAmerica
claimed it was back last August but no one else, least of all me, ever heard it
then). Now there is no doubt, big signal on the FRG7 just
Definitely a lively morning as others have mentioned; the erratic fades up on
many channels made things interesting, even when I started listening for just a
couple of minutes at 1415UT, but it was sort of difficult to find a spot where
things had calmed down previous to sunrise, in order to get

Bruce Conti in NH is reporting WAZN Watertown in Morse code at least two
mornings at 0900
and 1000 UTC. This is likely part of its pre-dawn routine.
The code might make reception easier. So if you need it this may be your chance.

Morse Code ID's approx. 35 WPM, on both stations on the overnight. The ham

Check 1360 WLYN and you should hear morse code on there as well as what's
been reported to be heard on 1470 WAZN.

Not quite as exciting as further west, but definitely one of the better
mornings of late, especially in terms of the number of carriers.
Today's audio:
594 JOAK had weak audio with talk by a woman when I first checked at
1402, peaking at a fair level around 1440..
693 JOAB, had poor-fair audio
