Re: [IRCA] KKXA



Wasn't there a 1230 vs 1240 situation in the L.A. / I.E. area?  From what I understand, there was a little 1240 in Pasadena that I think was only on the air Sundays and Wednesday evenings, running 100 watts.  When it was on, 1230 in Los Angeles and 1240 in San Bernardino had to cut back to 100 watts as well.  Anyone know more info about those?

Pete,
WJJD-1160-Chicago comes quickly to mind. They could stay on uintil KSL 
sunset.  Also I think KXL-750-Portland OR could broadcast only when WSB 
was off the air. Which wasn't that uncommon back in the 50s.......My 
favorite was the 2 Los Angeles stations on 1150, KRKD & KFSG who would 
alternate time. Of course, in Chicago 3 stations shared 1240 for a long 
time.
