Re: [IRCA] KOHI-1600's Underwhelming Signal

[vroomski@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Gary,

Nice catch on KOHI.  On the car radio KOHI is hard to hear in Portland, unless your near the Columbia river.  Their recent sign-on announcement at 5:58 am PDT daily mentions that at night their 50-12.5 watts.  During former owner Forrie Smith one hour talk program on Fridays he mentioned that KOHI has been heard in Finland, Norway and Sweden at around 6:00 am PST. One local listener mentioned on the program that he has a friend in Arizona that can hear KOHI. I have noticed lately that a few stations around here (KEX, KOHI) are touting their listen live web sites.  KEX says that if you can't hear us on your radio at the office, you can listen on-line.  A beach location would be great, or just being near the ocean.  I would like to check out the area around Forks, WA.  Its inland but not far from the ocean.

Vzncouver, WA
