Re: [IRCA] KNX-1070 Heard In Georgia



I may have to try 680 here....but that one is loaded up at night with some residual WCNN in their deep null, WPTF and WCIT among others. 640 has WGST Atlanta, about 25 miles south, along with a CUban and a bunch of others.

1070 was a surprise, as you can see on the map, North GA is blanketed by several 1070's.

Back in the 70's I heard KFI in Michigan, after WHLO went off. WHLO used to be a "limited time" station, and was able to operate into the evening. I think they went off at LA's Sunset time....usually leaving Cuba alone on the channel.

    If you go strictly by those, it looks like KNX should actually get out better than the other two, even though it is located much higher up on the dial.  Personally, I always find KNBR to be my easiest Californian, usually in the pre-dawn hours by nulling KFEQ.

Congratulations on your reception of 1070-KNX, Robert.

One of my biggest thrills as a teenage DXer on a Navy ship in Mayport, Florida (near Jacksonville) was receiving both 1070-KNX and 980-KFWB on a $20 Sony TR-6400 portable, during transcontinental sunset skip in 1973.

KFI was my first CA from NJ in 1963 - also one of my first veries.

( Back when there were many fewer fulltimers, no IBOC, less RF pollution
and many stations signed off at local midnight if not daily, then at least
on Monday mornings. )

I've never heard KNX from New Jersey but in the mid 70's I heard KFI on
640 when the Cuban wasn't dominating the frequency.

Nice catch ! Here 4 miles from IBOC-loving KYW that'll never happen. I did
hear KNX once or twice when I lived in northern NJ back in the 1970's and
also from Syracuse NY in the mid 1960's.

Surprisingly good considering the mix of WAPI, WFLI, WFNI and WNCT on the
channel. 0305 01-28-2016. Traffic and weather together on the 5's, into a
rather long traffic report, female voice mentioned east LA, into weather
apparently from the CBS O&O. Female weather caster <maybe named Jackie?>
"on KNX 1070 News Radio". Time check by News reader of 1207, into a story
about LA Police officers.

I decided to record 1070 last night based on KNX being heard in New
Newfoundland the night before.
