[IRCA] KICY Nome

[mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx (Patrick Martin)]

I phoned KICY this morning and I found out KICY is running 25 KW ND from
one tower. Their 50/10 KW U10 setup burned up last year and two of the
three towers had to be taken down because of the permafrost. They are
using a 1959 tower in the same place as their originial tower that fell
back in the 60s when they were 5 KW. Next June they break ground for the
new set up. The two towers are laying on the ground and will be
reinstalled next Summer, once the ground melts enough to do the work.
The new set up should be completed by Sept 1, 2007. When operational, it
will be U10 at 50/50 KW. The time they will be directional is from 11 PM
to 4 AM, Nome time which is in the evening in Siberia, Primetime for
listeners. The rest of the time they will run 50 KW ND. They go to
Russian at 11 PM.

73,
