Re: [IRCA] New AM station in NV Granted today and License to Cover Dismissed in CA...

["Paul B. Walker, Jr." <walkerbroadcasting@xxxxxxxxx>]

I could tell you lots about 1340!!

For instance, the CP was granted in 1989, and according to the FCC's AM
Query and FCCINFO.COM is only licensed for 250W.

If you dug really deep, you'd see the CP was revoked/rescinded in 1992 or
1993.

The owner once told me "If you get a licensed for a Class C Graveyarder and
wont cause interference, you can just crnak it up to 1KW".. which he'd been
doing for the life of the CP.

There are NO ownership reports on file for the station and the NH Secretary
of State doesn't show officers for the corporation. With no ownership
reports on file and NH Law allowing the list of officers in a corporation to
be secret, you can't tell who owns the station. The FCC and FBI isn't even
sure! Im not joking either).

The guy has over a dozen translator licenses, most of them deleted.. but
they are on the air relaying a "network" of 3 or 4 FM's and 1 AM near Mr
Fybush's homebase.

He owns an FM in Oklahoma under a different company name.. I once got two
calls in the span of a month at 11pm at night while in the NH studio for
this AM 1340 saying the tower lights had gone out on the 800+ tower for
105.7 on Oklahoma.

The man also never conducted an Weekly or Monthly EAS Test. Well, he got
them from the primary but never passed them on.

And, one day when I mysteriously couldn't find the public file and asked him
where it is, he said "Oh, I've got 24 hours to produce it"..

I've probably said too much.
