Re: [IRCA] 1310 WDTW MI Dearborn silent

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not able to DX much on 1310 here in Toronto with 1320 adjacent and huhge noise downtown. Ottawa seems to hog the channel anyhow so any fun for me will wait till next week's visit to Burnt River ON DX site. I'll aim a wire straight at Dearborn and see what I pull in!

But I am curious - has anyone within WDTW's former shadow tried to mine 1310 for DX? Who knows how long this opportunity will last. WNED in Buffalko NY was only off one month...

As "Keener 13," WKNR, I used to listen to them occasionally in Port Huron.  1310 was even more of a mess then because of 50 kw CFGM in Richmond Hill, ON (now on 640).
