Re: [IRCA] AM apps for Western WA



That's an interesting bunch of stations. I can see the Aberdeen station moving from 1450 to 1140, but the others seem a bit far fetched.

I'm wondering what sort of pattern 740 Redmond would have if it ever came on the air. It would need to protect KCBS and CBX at night, as well as Portland on 750 and Vancouver on 730 day and night, and I assume protect existing 50kw locals on 710 and 770. Maybe it would send most of its power toward Kaz's beverages :)

I notice that they are 4 apps for Western WA. A couple older ones, plus
two newer ones. Two are from companies that have stations.
740-Redmond-10/10KW
1120-Yelm (Olympia area)-10/6KW
+1140-Aberdeen 5/2.5KW
+1350-Raymond-5/.5KW

+ 1140 has 1450 Aberdeen
+ 1350 has 97.7 Raymond

The old Pamphin app is still listed for Redmond (Seattle). I thought
that one died along with 1570 Warrenton. There was another one for Olympia-1160 sometime back, I did not see it
listed now, so probably dead. A CE told me once that over 50% of apps
never get oked and 50% of CPs are never built. With the cost of putting
on a new AM, like Raymond, FM would be less. There are no AM towers
there to co-locate with either.
