Re: [IRCA] KKOL

["Dan Strassberg" <dan.strassberg@xxxxxxx>]

If KKOL is not coming in well in northeast Seattle, but you know that they
are operating from the Tacoma site, you've got good evidence that they are
on night pattern. It's not ironclad evidence, but if the day pattern were
running, I would expect you to report a good signal (though perhaps not a
great one). The night pattern is narrower than the day pattern and is
centered on the northwest. The day pattern is broader and is centered on the
northeast. Fading is a possibility in your location because the short towers
produce lots of high-angle radiation, but regular rapid fades (you said that
you wondered whether there was a SAH between the ship-based Tx and the
land-based facility) seem unlikely to me.
