Re: [IRCA] Domestic MWDX to Enid OK, June 12-18, 2015



--- Begin Message ---
All times and dates strictly UT [4 hours ahead of `ELT` during DST; when changing times one must also change the dates for events in the 00-04 UT period to the previous date by ELT].

Rx: mostly DX-398 or PL-880 with internal antenna only; Nissan stock caradio as specified; FRG-7 with E/W longwire as specified

These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also VHF/UHF, sometimes, utility, ham, which may be found in several archives without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

All my MW DX reports starting August 2011 are archived in this forum with open access:

These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of USA, unidentified [if any], separated by ======= Within each, they are in frequency order

** OKLAHOMA. 740, June 12 at 0527 UT, surprised to hear `Silent Night` playing 6 months out of synch, maybe something CFMZ would do? No, it`s only KRMG Tulsa and playing a bit of it again at 0529 UT apparently bookending a talk show segment, Dennis? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 740, June 18 at 1319 UT, KRMG with flood warnings around Tulsa, ID only as ``News 102-3 KRMG`` so I expect the useless 50 kW AM station to be demolished any minute now (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1000, June 14 at 0309 UT near Kingfisher OK on caradio, I am not getting KTOK, but a Dodgers/Padres game, which would be on ESPN, such as WMVP Chicago. KTOK must be off the air; 930 WKY still local quality groundwave signal. After 05 UT from Enid, usual signal from KTOK with talk, not sports (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, June 9 and 10 while relatively close in Bartlesville, a few random chex for KEOR/KETU Sperry in the daytime produced nothing.

1120, June 12 at 1759 UT, KEOR/KETU is definitely back on with as good a groundwave signal as it ever attains here, continuous Mexican music past 1807 UT, several tunes segued with no announcements, no ads, not even a legal hourtop ID when one could have been inserted easily. Is it still La Picuda syndication service out of L.A.? No IDs for that either. These songs all seemed by same artist, whiny male vocalist with trumpets and tuba; another block checked later in the hour had more variety and still no announcements whatsoever (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Still active with music only (?) June 18 afternoon

==================

** U S A. 780, UT Wed June 17 at 0549 UT, yes, WBBM is still breaking away from all-FM news, for an oldtime radio drama hour at midnight, stilted narration of some mystery/crime show --- on weeknights, while WGN 720 does it on Sunday nights (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1050, June 14 at 0604 UT, ads including one for custom shirts, 0605 non-ID sounds like `Red Eye 1050`, and into `Red Eye Radio`. Loops east-west, holding own at first against XEG Monterrey, then still audible with XEG nulled as much as possible, somewhat clockwise from there. Only 1050 on the RER affiliate roster is KTBL Albuquerque NM, and own website http://www.1050talk.com/ confirms it`s scheduled, despite also being on parent station 770 KKOB; why? Why not? In OKC it`s on both 1640 and 1520. KTBL is 1/1 kW U3, day and night pattern being circular tangent favoring NNE, maybe filling in a bit of a coverage gap between KKOB on night pattern and KKOB co-channel filler in Santa Fe (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1280, June 18 at 1331 UT, no signal from KSOK Arkansas City KS, semi-local C&W station. Maybe I`ll finally hear Poteau OK? Not today. Still off at 1750 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
