Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] WWNH 1340 Heard In California??

["Les Rayburn" <les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,

Many thanks for the test. Like many dx'ers, I recorded the entire test and 
am playing
it back today with headphones searching for those signals. Passed on reports
here, it appears to have been well heard towards the North and Northwest of
the antenna site, but I haven't seen any other reports of receptions
much past the Mississippi, so I wouldn't get my hopes on a confirmed
reception in California just yet.

Conditions were quite good last night, but with graveyard stations, coast to
coast receptions under any circumstances are pretty rare.

Again, our thanks not only for this test, but the many, many others that 
you've
helped to arrange or personally conducted. DX'ers couldn't ask for a better
friend "in the business". :)

73,

Les Rayburn, N1LF
NRC/IRCA Broadcast Test Coordinator

I got a call at 12:15pm eastern today.... it went something like this...

ME: Good Afternoon, LoveRadio....
Caller: Hi, is this the station that put on the DX Test last night?
Me: Yes, yes it is.. we're WWNH!
Caller: Well, you, uh, might find this hard to believe but.. you were heard 
in California last night!!
Me: WOAH! Where in California?
Caller: Vacaville............

WOW, if this is in fact verified by Les and myself, it will *probably* 
qualify as the longest distance.

Paul
