Re: [IRCA] Re 1130 BC & OR

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 I was in the Bellingham, WA area most of today and checked 1130 on the 
car radio  while driving home.  At 1730 PDT, KPWX was clearly audible in 
the background near the southern edge of town, about 40 miles SE of the 
CKWX transmitter site.  Sometimes, KPWX came close to equaling CKWX for 
a few seconds.  I'm not sure if CKWX has many listeners on our side of 
the border, but it pretty much confrms that the station is getting 
enough interference to annoy listeners on the outskirts of Vancouver.   
Prior to KPWX, CKWX's closest co-channel neighbor was in Dinuba, CA, 
about 800 miles away, so this is a new experience for them.
