Re: [IRCA] recorded the iboc

[mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx (Patrick Martin)]

Scott,

What I was using this morning was the Drake SPR4 from 1971. A few months
back when KGO was testing IBOC after Midnight, I heard the "Hash" under
their signal on the R8 too. I did not try the R8 this morning however,
but I would be surprised if it would have sounded any different. If the
IBOC hash is being heard under KGO's audio on a Drake in 5-6 khz
bandwidth, I would be surprised if everyone wouldn't hear it in the Bay
area. KGOs signal is S9+30-50 DB typical and I can even hear the
transmitter hum. So it is basically local like most nights. KGO even
made the ratings #2 in the Arbitron Portland Book in the early 70s. That
was before KPDQ was on, but KGO still has a decent signal at night in a
lot of Portland. I just wonder what KGO's hash would do to KPDQ at 500w
in the Portland area at night? 

73,

Patrick
