Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] KCFJ 570 Alturas, CA

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

Well, with my H-800 Skymatch Active Antenna up in a tree (I climbed a fence
to put it there) along with my Sangean ATS909X i should probably be able to
get enough of a signal to tell whats on air at some point, probably close
to sunset I'd bet.  The terrain and ground conductivity dont help.. 5KW
over better terrain at 120 miles would make them listenable here.
