Re: [IRCA] UNID on 1370 kHz



To Dave and the group:

Thank you for all your help. If I can get up early enough on Saturday 
morning, I'm going to try again, but there is nothing in the NRC AM Logbook 
that nails it.

WBTN in Vermont has a local program with Rich Ryder on at that time. 

WVMR in West Virginia is non-commercial and they carry some NPR programs but 
no website. Doesn't explain the New York City/Boston accent either.

World Radio Network carries Radio Nederland (Netherlands in English tho they 
usually ID this way) but not at that time, and all of the WRN stations in 
the U.S. are on the FM band. The RNW website no lists their affiliates (that 
I could see anyway).

I suspect that this may have been someone's low power radio transmitter 
rebroadcasting from a satellite feed or internet connection and I just 
happened to hear it.

I'll keep you posted should I hear this again. Thanks again and 73

P. S. About ten years ago I heard an unlicensed FM broadcast in my area and 
about a year ago, I finally saw the FCC action against the operator posted 
on the web.
