Re: [IRCA] DX TIP for WDXR

["Stephen H. Ponder" <n5wbi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, WWL has been ID'ing as the "United Radio Broadcasters of New Orleans" (URBONO)

since Katrina.  At least 3 AM stations and 3 FM stations in the greater New Orleans area are

participating in the simulcasts.  Memory fails me, but they include WYLD and WQUE and

four others.  They're usally pretty good at listing all the URBONO cooperating stations in

the TOH ID.

I have been hearing them pretty clearly in Northern California lately.  Last time I paid attention was three days ago.  I didn't hear a WWL ID from them at 0300 PLT, but they DID ID as "United Broadcasters of New Orleans."  I thought that was unusual, but maybe not under the circumstances.  KTRB/860 has been off quite a bit at nights recently, but WWL has been able to get in as well.  Rather surprising considering that KTRB is 50 KW and local!

870 WWL LA, New Orleans. As others have reported, WWL sounds like
they are back with full power. On top of the jumble with news on storm
affected areas, Into ID and CBS News at 0500 EDT 9/14.
