Re: Day & Night at WDTW (AM)
It's now March 1.
WDTW's assigned time to switch from day to night pattern is 2345 UTC (6:45 pm EST).
They went from day to night pattern 8 minutes ago, 1800 EST.
45 minutes early, just like February.
According to the FCC site, they should be going to day pattern at 6:45 AM tomorrow.
Betcha they go two tower at 6:00!

Every morning at 6:00 AM, I was either asleep or busy.
This morning I was up and WDTW went from night to day pattern at 6:00, just as I predicted.
Thus their pattern changer is working correctly. But its clock is 45 minutes fast.

Lol I didn’t know that. I did know that Smith owned the onetime transmission building for WTAM (off of Snowville Road in Brecksville, OH) and effectively turned that place into a museum over the years.Arthur Mometer wrote: ↑Tue Feb 26, 2019 1:19 pmThe acceptance of that large of an augmentation is problematic to me. I noticed that a year or so ago. You do realize that there is only 5000 watts to radiate. If it's going South, there has to be a real reduction to the North, or somewhere, like above the horizon. I learned this from Carl Smith's circa 1947 DA chapter in the NAB Engineering Handbook from 1949. It's available on americanradiohistory.com. Think about it. It's a Corollary of the First Law Of Thermodyamics. The Second Law is there too, with the system losses. He doesn't label it as such, but that's the principle.
You do know that Carl Smith owned the American Gothic House in Iowa, don't you? Contemplating that Pitchfork is where he got the idea for the three tower inline endfire binomial design array.
