[IRCA] X-BAND ODDITIES (wasRe: More Loggings)
The Expanded Band was indeed set up for 10 kilowatts day, 1 kilowatt
night...NON-directional. But a few stations vary from this architecture:
KDIA Vallejo CA 1640 is authorized 10 kilowatts night, directional SW.
KZLZ Enid OK 1640 operates a 1 kilowatt peanut pattern NW/SE.
KFOX Torrance CA 1650 is authorized 490 watts nighttime.
KSVE El Paso TX 1650 is power-limited day and night
WWRU Jersey City NJ 1660 is 10 kilowatts full-time directional.
KHPY Moreno Valley CA 1670 is 9 kilowatts night non-directional.
WPRR Ada MI 1680 is limited to 680 watts at night.
WIGT Charlotte Amalie VI 1690 is 920 watts full-time.
KVNS Brownsville TX 1700 is power-limited.
WRCR Stony Point NY 1700 is directional at night.
The Canadians are starting to show up all over the X-band with varying power
levels; a few 10 kilowatts full-time.
Cheers!

I believe the standard for the X-band stations is (or was)
10kw/1kw......Sure seems that portion of the band got really crowded in
California and Northern Mexico. 'Doesn't seem like so many years ago that
DXers here on the West coast were easily able to log Iowa on 1630, New
Jersey on 1660, Florida on 1700....ms

Spanish language XEUT in Tijuana Northern Baja California is on 1630. It
gets out very well.
A number of sources show the power as 10 kW day and 1 kW night both
nondirectional. However in Mexico it is not unusual for stations to run
more power and use different patterns than they are licensed for.
