(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WRMI survey Oct 12 at 0106 into Maryland SDR, these
frequencies are OFF: 5850, 7570, 9455. The rest are ON: 5010, 5050,
5800, 5950, 7730, 7780, 9395, 9955, 15770. One more FB entry to those
last quoted: ``Hurricane Update as of 1700 UTC October 11: The frequencies of 9955
and 5050 kHz are operating normally again. We still have a problem
with 17790 and 5850 kHz. Engineers are working on these`` (Glenn

Maryland SDR during FKB, while 5130- and 3265+ are still off. 6160 -69
Hz = 6159.931 with TOMBS before 2400. 2359, one-minute tone warning
and FKB upwraps; Chariots of Fire tune, canned ID, no disclaimer about
a repeat to follow, and 0000 Oct 12, William Tell Overture theme of
`AAAWWW`. I think Allan says ``yup`` at the start, and later, ``we
have to fight -- for the republic, free speech``, etc. Fumbles for
reading glasses, laments declining sight vision, and right into
politix: no mention of hurricane nor current datestamp. Insulting
President Biden as a ``puppet`` is enough to drive me away. Recheck at
0030 music playing, soon back to talk. I do wonder if A&A stayed in
Deland of Fla for Milton. Here`s a local report on damage there:

ID as ``KTNN, Window Rock - Tohatchi - Ganado``. Far stronger than
neighbors WSM & WSCR! KTNN clearly yet again still on ND 50 kW day
power, take that, WFAN! Possiblizes AZ state for easterlyners. Cannot
find at FCC AM Query or LMS, any link to monthly sunrise / sunset
timetable! Has this been deleted for all stations? I try another one:
KOKC: can`t find that one at all! FCC is really screwedup. Per
gaisma.com, axual Window Rock SS today was 0046 UT. Recheck at 0645
UT, it`s gone, just weaksigs on 660 amid WSM & WSCR at normal levels
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 770, KKOB, radio tower down again by Fiesta balloon clipping
guywire. As happened before exactly one icosayear ago.
https://www.kob.com/new-mexico/hot-air-balloon-hits-radio-tower-near-balloon-fiesta-park/
Here`s an audiovideo, set to music, isn`t that nice?
https://www.koat.com/article/tower-collapse-video-balloon/62581474
One KOAT report says the downed tower was one they rely on at night.
So that means it can`t go direxional to protect WABC. KOAT TV refers
to KKOB as its ``media partner`` -- ha, long divorced from KOB TV.
Check for it tonight. More bits:
https://www.koat.com/article/tower-collapse-balloon-fiesta-park-2024/62580632 Geez, people don`t know the correct term is guywires:
``"At this time, it looks stable. We have no sagging in any of the
guidelines. The anchors are in place. There is only one guidewire
that's going over one of the anchors from the previous tower that
collapsed. So, at this time, we're we're very hopeful that the second
tower is structurally stable," Harris said.``
KOB, originally, should have known better than to locate its 50 kW
towers so close to an area which would eventually be filled with HABs
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1030 kHz, Oct 11 at 0653 UT, ``1030, Talk Radio KFAY``, CCI
