New night pattern:

The three existing towers are different heights. The new fourth tower will
be the same height as the shortest existing tower. KLO in Ogden, UT has four
towers that are different heights. I took this photo while at the 2007
convention in Salt Lake City:

Subject: [IRCA] KGA 1510 off at times last night
I noticed local pest KGA 1510 Spokane off about 0200 ELT last night & they
were mainly off for the next couple hours & still off when I went to bed.
They may be off again tonight or over the rest of the weekend as I imagine
they are adjusting their antenna system and/or transmitter for their new
reduced night power to allow sister station KPIG 1510 Piedmont (Bay area)
to increase their night power.
If you're in the Pacific NW you should check 1510 tonight & the next few
nights.
I logged one new one:
KCKK 1510 Littleton, CO with Sporting News Radio & calling itself "Mile
High Sports Radio."
To add to the confusion, KGA is also a sports station. I'm not sure which
sports network they are affiliated with but it may well be Sporting News
Radio.
KGA's new pattern is supposed to reduce their night signal to the south &
east, & I'd speculate to the west, great news for DXers in those
directions from Spokane, but bad news for me because I'm about six miles
north. So they will still be a local pest.
I guess those farther away that would like to hear KGA may not be happy
either.
