Re: [IRCA] WGLB in Wisconsin (was: WFME 1560 off the air)



Jim, you're probably thinking of WGLB in Port Washington, and the FCC website for WGLB says they were granted a CP two years ago to go to 2500 days, 250 nights, 700 during CH.  When I was in Davenport, Iowa (roughly 163 air miles from WGLB's transmitter site) last September, WGLB was blowing the doors off everything else on 1560 just before Midnight.  My surmise is that not only is their CP on, but I'd bet my next dozen farm-fresh eggs that they're running that 2500 watt day power all night long.

Subject: [IRCA] WFME 1560 off the air

There was a tip on Facebook at 2309, and of course I didn't note who posted
it, but WFME 1560 is off the air.  In it's place a strong signal with a
gospel music program mentioning Wisconsin and Wisconsin phone numbers.
Must be using day power, I figured.  But the NRC Log says WGYB is U4
185/250.  So one of those unusual ones that is authorized to raise power at
night.  Though 250 watts seems to be packing quite a punch tonight.  A new
one here.And thanks for the FB tip.
