Re: [IRCA] KNTS 1220 Palo Alto CA CP

There are already several freqs with stations in the bay area and the LA 
area (1430 610 1260 etc), so 1220 isn't that much of a stretch.  They 
may still have to protect Canada by treaty even though CJOC & CKDA are 
long gone. 

My first guess at their proposed pattern would be a cardioid with a null 
towards Canyon Country and the main lobe towards San Francisco.  If 
that's the case they'll be sending most of their power towards, uh, the 
mouth of the Columbia River ;-(
