Re: [IRCA] 710 + Cuba + IBOC = Mess

[Milspec390@xxxxxxx]

Does Ray's gaseous diatribe exemplify Playing the Victim Card?
 
Poor, Tom "I have balls!!!" Ray now whines like a lil' puppy with a weak  
bladder that evil nasty ol' Rebelde 710 be's jammin' his history-maker. Spare  
us, Tom. Spare yourself further embarassment.
 
 
 Sound like Ray's playing Victim card in hope of wheedling yet  more undue 
favor from a lapdog FCC?
 
 WQAM 50 Kw?  Rebelde 500Kw?    Right.  And don fido's also quit the bag.
 
Meanwhile, Strooble now tells everyone to pay no attention  to bloggers who 
say unkind albeit true things about State-Sponsored  jamming euphemistically 
known as iBLOC.
 
Why?  If bloggers are fulla prunes why not encourage 'em, use it  against 
them?

Stroobs has a gift for making our point but he's not  original - see affixed 
post-script.
 
As for 710 jamming WOR? Please. Isn't HD immune to  interference?

Yeah, I know. Bad form, kick 'em as their outhouse a' cards  collapses.

Their target is WAQI in Miami which covers  Cuba well, so they're trying to 
blockl it. Old news. The 500,000 watt estimate  isn't realistic but more for 
effect. The likelihood that Cuba's antiquated  electrical system could power 
even a 100kw AM transmitter is a  stretch.

The Cubans heard in past seasons there are estimated by most  to be in the 
1-10kw range and routinely tear up WOR here because WOR's  nighttime signal goes 
mostly East.

And what happened to the Tom Ray who  insisted that a station's local area 
was a radius of about 35 miles  ?
