No, for now 1460 will be only testing daytime, getting groundwave set and
going tower by tower, then getting it up to 10kw and then getting the
pattern right etc, so it will be a long and slow process, but the ce says
you will notice more music/audio during the daytime this week, as the Clear
Channel technical consultant has sent two other engineers to help with the
xmtr and tower site...Our CE is Mike Blankenbeckler, better known as "Radio
Mike"....His email is radiomic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I've already given that address to Rich Toebe...Gosh, 1460's been off since
around 1991, haven't you heard everything on the frequency you're going to
hear already?! Hi....Oh, well, good things can't last forever, sorry, but
it's not my fault...They're sharing KCTY-980's new tower site NE of Salinas
off Old Natividad Road..KCTY is also supposed to go 10kw day, don;'t know
what their night power will be...1460 will be 10/10....We were hoping it
would simulcast KOCN, Oldies 105, but Mike had to get the order in for new
equipment, since all our stations move into new offices and studios with new
equipment in the next few months...So, looks like 1460 will be a "classic
country" format from Jones Sat. Network when it goes on air, likely with
different calls...
So, try 1460 again during daytime tomorrow and every day for next several
weeks,...I'll let everyone know when night testing will begin...Mike says he
will do DX test for club if he can get remote control set up so he won't
have to go to xmtr site in middle of night, but that will still be quite a
while from now..

Subject: Re: Fw: 1460 ON AIR TESTING TODAY!
Yes, I got the message. I was trying to E-mail you but your old E-mail
address (moonpere) does not work anymore. I really don't want them
coming back on the air, as 1460 is a nice clear freq. since they left
the air several years back, I was aware they have been granted KTXX
calls. Where is their xmtr located? Do you have an E-mail contact at
the station? Thanks... Just checked for them Fri. morning about 5:30
Am and tonight during WJAS-1320 test (not heard), don't think it was on
in either case...
