Re: [IRCA] WKIX-850 on day power

[<texas4421@xxxxxxxx>]

When I reported this issue, I did not know if what they might have a 
transmitter problem; or they might be doing their checks and RF readings.

I did like their selections of music or should I say their mix of music, all 
good stuff.
We need a station in the Chattanooga market to copy them.

I noticed that. Alan Sherrill their engineer is a stickler for power 
changes. I am sure he is not thrilled today. They were strong as you say.... 
and a term I use.... they were "localling" last night!

850 WKIX NC RALEIGH 0200 6/04/10

Playing a real mix of music, from oldies to country. Singing ID - "W-K-I-X 
channel 85";

Just played Buddy Holly song, Peggy Sue. [I meet the real Peggy Sue when I 
worked for the American Broadcast Museum in Dallas. We had his guitar on 
display.] WKIX is playing ever kind on music from the 50's to 80's. [WM-TN]



They are on day power and pattern. IF you are west of the Mississippi, and 
have not logged them, this would be a great time to so, they are 50db over 
S-9.
