[IRCA] 9Khz Splits

["Paul B. Walker, Jr." <walkerbroadcasting@xxxxxxxxx>]

I know VON Radio on the island of Nevis in Saint Kitts & Nevis moved from..
what, 895khz to 860khz and Klassic Grenada moved from 535 to 540Khz.

KJAL 585khz Tafuna, American Samoa had an application to move to 630khz but
that move was denied, I believe.. due in part to possible interference to
outer lying areas of The Cook Islands, home to Radio Cook Islands on
630Khz. I had heard from someone that KJAL, when it was on.. operated on
580khz.

WVUV 648 Leone, American Samoa had a CP to move to 720Khz but the license
for WVUV was cancelled after it was silent for too long.

I bet ZIZ has thought about it or will think about it... but how long
before ZIZ on Saint Kitts at 555Khz moves to a 9khz split that also hits a
10khz split? It'd probably be a bit of a long process, as Im sure the
telecommunications authority in Saint Kitts & Nevis would have to go
through co-ordination with the International Telecommunication Union to
make sure wherever they proposed to move to wouldn't cause interference
with any other international radio stations.

YEARS .. DECADES ago, before the proliferation of more electronics and more
cars, Im sure radio stations in the Caribbean, etc who were on 9khz splits
didn't have much of an issue... but with cars and radios so plentiful now
and the radios being made with 10Khz splits, Im sure that's become an issue.
