[IRCA] OUT OF THE PAST AND CFA



Some of you know that in my working days I was involved with WJIB-96.9, WXHR/WCAS-740 (along with John Callarman) and of course KFOG. The two FMs were represented in NYC by QMI (Quality Media Inc.) for purposes of procuring national advertising. The principals were Bob Richer (the selling) and Jim Schulke (the music). The company represented many âgood music/easy listeningâ stations, but the music on them was inconsistent, so QMI produced music tapes which the stations were contractually bound to use. QMI dissolved but Schulke went on to form SRP (Stereo Radio Productions). So two days ago, I got a call from Bob Richer who I was sure had retired. Nope. He is (1) serving as a broker for European radio stations and (2) doing some work on cross field antennas. He dropped his teeth when I said I knew what a CFA was and that one was in use in Egypt on 864kHz. He went on to say that there are now ten of them in use in Egypt. I am not totally sure what his role in this is but I do know he is seeking some financing. He said the FCC is interested. I am sure there are others on this list who are closer to this than I am and can update the information.
