Re: [IRCA] [AMFMTVDX] WVVB-960

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

960 and 103.1 have been The Vulcan for a few months now i think. Interesting
use of an AM signal and unique.. make sit very eays to pick out 960 at night
if you think you hear them.

Radio is definately changing and you're going to see more stuff like this,
odd formats on Am.. just so they can feed an FM signal. Look at WACV
Montgomery, AL on 1170.. doing Modern/Alternative Rock on a 10KW AM signal
to feet an FM translator.
