Re: [IRCA] Is KFI 640 back on with full power and fixed antenna ?

["Neil Kazaross" <neilkaz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thx guys...it seems like getting KFI under these circumstances is a DX catch 
here, so I'll report it. I was surprised since they I thought they still 
were running half power with a short stick.

KFWB stronger than KFI !!! WOW...what do I need to do to catch KFWB here ? 
I've tried and tried and tried when KNX is pounding in, but never a trace 
thru KMBZ. One would suspect it would be easy to pick out Dodgers coverage 
or LA's news but no luck even though I recently caught 790 KABC on a fade 
up. KFWB has been hrd in western IA, is reasonably common in Colorado, and 
Frank Merrill down in Macomb (188 miles SW of here) tells me he's had them 
on a western BOG.

Late Sept and into mid Oct typically is the best time for So Cal area stuff 
here and this season so far has been good to So Cal.  73 KAZ Barrington IL
