Re: [IRCA] KRKO in digital mode

[Patrick Martin <mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Bruce. I got it. Lots of HD hash on 1380, but clear on 1390 (1370 is on KAST) on the R8. However, I am getting an open carrier on the Sony HD receiver. on 1380  Using the NE EWE. The logo claims to be locked on, and there is just silence. So I do not know if I am not getting audio or if KRKO has an open carrier. I just got the Logo "KRKO" and bits of bursts of audio, but it comes and goes. The locked in HD is always present. I never lose that, but not strong enough most of the time to produce audio. Now if I had a 1,000 foot beverage aimed at Seattle, maybe. I do think if KSL tests with sold HD, I will get it without any issue. KRKO is just not strong enough. KKXA will even be weaker I am sure, unless KGDD goes off.
