[IRCA] KXMG covers KSL & Band scan

[vroomski@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello,

Local KXMG 1150 (5 miles from antenna) is S9 +40 db on 1160. Same on 1140.  I guess they forgot to switch their 5 kw signal to 47 watts at sunset which was a hour ago.  Notice they leave the 5 kw on during the Portland Trail  Blazers games (broadcasted in Spanish) at night.

Last April at Grayland KSL 1160 was heard all day long with the BOG.  The BOG was grounded at the west end and was about 750' long.  Wonder since KSL is IBOC now if they can still be heard in the daytime?

Almost finished with the daytime band scan -- up to 1530.  Using three radios JRC 545 Palstar R-30 CC and Drake R8B.  Using H-800 active antenna at about 20'.  Tried the Space Magnet but the noise level was about S-9.
