[HCDX] 40 Meter Broadcast QRM

["Larry Van Horn" <larry@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Recently someone on this list posted info on KNLS broadcasting in the 40
meter ham band. I have contacted Chuck, K0BOG, the head of the ARRL
Monitor program and he passes along the following response about KNLS
broadcasting on 7160 kHz.

If anyone hears KNLS transmitting on 7200 kHz I would appreciate a heads
up.

Hello Larry,
Good to hear from you again.  Hope all is well.  I will try to address
your questions as follows.
73, Chuck KØBOG ARRL

LVH>I have receivied reports that KNLS in Anchor Point, AK is
broadcasting on 7200 kHz now in addition to their advertised 7160 on
their website.
LVH>(http://www.knls.org/English/ksched.htm). I am curious how a Region
2 broadcaster is authorized to legallytransmit in the 40-meter band?

CS>I received this message from the FCC on 1/13/04 concerning KNLS:

FCC>"The request by KNLS on 7160 kHz was authorized inadvertently
considering that 7100-7300 kHz is allocated to Amateurs in Region 2.
I have talked to KNLS and they should be 
FCC>vacating the frequency today 13 January, 2004 to resolve any
unintended interference."

CS>Please let me know if you continue to receive reports about
7200.-Chuck

Again if you hear KNLS on 7160, 7200 or any other 7000-7300 kHz
frequency, please post to HCDX or drop me a line here at Grove.
73 de Larry
