Re: [IRCA] WGIV-1370



One wonders here. WGIV has been a frequent abuser in the past, and I think they were fined for it, back when 5KW and pesty here in IL.I don't have much of a setup for stressing SE stations currently but honestly haven't noted any money business from them in a few years. I think they're 16 kw days now, and to be honest, I don't think you'd have much QSB at your distance and they'd be a major presence on the channel if full day power. It's certainly possible at your distance to have them fade in and out using 45 watts. But if you continue to note them strong for a few nights, one can certainly suspect something is amiss.

Willis's post is well written here !! As he simply suggests that they "may" be on day power, rather than saying "gotta be cheating !" my reply is to suggest that I think if on day power they'd be all over the freq at Willis' distance and that my experience indicates stations can get out on low power, but don't dominate crowded regional in general, even when using phased Bev-type antennas.
