Re: [IRCA] DX Tips for WDXR
Grr... if I had known someone was wondering about Lake Isabella's 1140, I would have tried for them. I was on a camping trip with some friends this past weekend at the Tulare County Fairgrounds, and we drove through Bakersfield in the mid afternoon on the way home. That's within their 0.5 mV/m contour according to Radio-Locator, so I could have checked for them, maybe. Although, in the RV we were in, the weaker signals didn't penetrate inside so well. Maybe I might have been able to (barely) hear them in Tulare (as it's near the edge of their estimated 0.15 mV/m contour) on the PL-606, but I don't remember hearing anything on 1140 there. (Chances are the splatter from 1130 in Dinuba killed any possible signal, I guess.)
Also, according to the FCC, 1140 KQAB Lake Isabella is daytime only.

Yeah, this was a real tough one. I did manage to hear KVLI back in Feb & early March 1988 at sunset, but only several times. I could get a pretty good null on 1140 Sacto. Is Lake Isabella still on the air or did they fold?
