Re: [IRCA] DX last night - one new some unID's and oddballs

Hi, Dave--
I hadn't heard them in many years until last night. I wonder if they  are 
having antenna pattern problems-- it looks like most of their signal is  
aimed north and east.

Hey  Bill;

I'm almost ready to call this 1380 C&W stn CKPC.  The  "13-80" slogan
seems to be what they use and that matches what I've  heard.  Curtis
Sadowski SSE of you in East Central Illinois says that  they boom into
his area almost every night.  I do have an email in to  their news room
(only station email that I found) but will keep trying if  they do not
reply.  Not sure why I haven't heard them before.   They were 10 Kw 24/7
up until the early 90's and you'd think that 25 Kw  would make it, even
if not aimed right at me.

John Rieger says that  the MN stn uses a K-Gee slogan and that doesn't
fit, either.

As  always, thanks and 73,

Dave in Indy

Hi, Dave!
Tonight 11/18 at around 1820 EST I was  hearing CKPC 1380 Brantford ON
playing C&W (not classic but not the  more rock-like contemporary either)
and using the slogan "AM 13-80." The  signal was surprisingly strong on a
very crowded frequency. At one point  they gave a web address of
am1380.ca. Hope this helps.

I spent about 90 minutes last night, primarilly  DX'ing in the
1300's.
Although I only caught one new one  (overall to boot) I had some
fun with
some of the  unID's.

1370: It appeared that Pineville,  NC 1370 had their 16Kw day rig
on
late, as it was 9 PM ET,  or almost 4 hours after Pineville LSS.
I also
had Fort  Cambell KY with rock music and what sounded like a High
School
football game but it was Bowling Green U Vs. Toledo, thus  WSPD.

1380:  I had Classic Country  again on 1380 with a simple "AM
13-80"
slogan.  Faded  down during weather and ads.  Did not appear to
match
Brantford ON's stream as they seem to play newer C&W.  Maybe
Arab,  AL?
Winona MN (doubtful)?  I am sending an email to the  Arab, AL
station.
The C&W station went way below South  Beloit, IL's "Stateline
Sports"
station and then a SS  station was heard.  The only imaging that
I caught
was a "La Musica" ment at 2054 EST.  WKDM-NY would be Mandarin
per  their
schedule.  WTOB-NC?  WHEW-TN on late?   ???

1310: Local WTLC-AM ("The Light") *may*  be stuck on day power as
their
signal and associated slop  (especially on 1320) are greater than
normal,
at  night.  Normally I can hear traces of Madison, WI in the
nulls  and
underneath.  They have at least had their IBOC off  for the past
few
weeks!

1320: WTAS-PA is the only thing making it through -  trivial
relog.

1330: The new one!   Was chasing a Classic Country station where
I could
only  barely tell what song was being played.  I heard an "AM
1330
W-R-A-?" liner, so I pulled up Barry's site and saw  two
possibilities
WRAM in IL and WRAA in VA.  Found  WRAM's website and the stream
matched
as did the liner,  hearing a definite repeat of the WRAM ID at
2110 ET.
No  doubt that this station was on their proper 50 watt night
power  due
to P or VP signal.  The little barefoot Eton really  pulled this
one out.

1360: Southern  Gospel.  Who knows?  Maybe WMOB-AL again?
