Re: [IRCA] More on 1580

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I  routinely hear highway avisory radio or NOAA-type weather relay stations from NYC, central PA and such on the x-band. Have also had one from even further away. Colin, in a later e-mail, is right - can locate a TIS on any relatively open channel for immediate local coverage. I don't truly believe the TIS stuff I routinely hear mixing evernly with the WI station on 1640, for example, are operating with TIS-size signals. But I'm speaking only from my gut on that.

After the ID they describe something that's not clear enough to hear. Why would a TIS operate on a Freq that's not clear of other signals at night? Normally these LPs operate on 1610 or 530 or is that old school? Bill in BC
