Re: [IRCA] 1322 kHz Mystery Station - Possible ID?

["Paul B. Walker, Jr." <walkerbroadcasting@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mora isn't too far north of Minneapolis/St Paul as I recall. It has a 25KW
Class C3 FM licensed to it as well.

KCIZ claims they're Part 15. But if yuo look elsewhere on the site, they
mention KCIZ-FM, and then on another page, they mentioned 103.3 FM for a
station, 106.5 FM for a translator and they also mention they are looking
for a "10 Watt AM transmitter for night use".

The Part 15 supposedly operates till sunset only, and i gather they were
looknig for that "10 Watt AM transitter for night use| to overcome the
skywave from Denver and Cedar Rapids on 1650.

I can't find any record of KCIZ-FM, any Applications for 103.3 or 106.5 made
by the school.

The station has a webstream at http://www.morarocks.com/listen

If they are throwing a spur on 1323 that you can hear, they are running way
more then 100 milliwatts and have a very dirty transmitter!

I'm all for radio as a elarning tool in a school, but one would think the
school isn't operating ill-legally.
