Re: [IRCA] 1610 MYSTERY

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hi Pete,
 
Yes, I noticed this weak gospel music station about a month ago, when I was  
chasing the Anguilla beacon on 1610. Anguilla was easy to identify because  of 
the 6090 kHz parallel, but there was another gospel music station under  
Anguilla that was not following the typical TIS format. The signal seemed  
strongest after local midnight here in Puyallup, about 10 miles south of Federal  
Way. Rarely it will be the strongest station on the wide-open 1610 kHz  
frequency, but it's difficult to catch an ID because of the TIS/ Anguilla  Beacon 
jumble.
 
73, Gary

The 1610  mystery I described a month ago is located off of Highway 99   
somewhere near 288th St. in Federal Way. The format today was  melodic  
gospel - mostly full orchestral arrangements with a solo  singer. Very  
pretty, actually, with good quality. An ID was given  every 12-15  
minutes. It had a K- call and mentioned 1610, several  slogans and a  
web site; however, with the KYIZ-1620 slop battering  away, and with  
some time constraints, I was not able to dig the info  out or track it  
any more exactingly. The ID did not mention any  church affiliation so  
I suspect it is a Part 15 station coming out  of someone's home.  
Further research is contingent on my taking  someone to the airport  
again. So Gary, it looks to me like you  picked this thing up in  
Puyallup. Nice catch! If someone else in the  area cares to spend the  
time loitering around long enough to catch  the web site, please do!
