I used to talk to Neil Schwanitz when I had a borrowed old FI Meter back around 1991. I was surprised at how much the signal was below the M-3 predicted at my receiving location compared to WWJ. I didn't have all the information then that I have now. WWJ was close to M-3 prediction, WXYT was way bel...

There may have been several factors in why WBRB moved to Pitko St. At the time, there weren't that many people to the North of the site. It didn't really hit the COL that well from there. You can see a line of trees where the towers were. The site was and is a wetland, and it looks like they tiled i...

This is the old WPON Polar Graph for the Daytime Pattern from Loon Lake. https://www.fccdata.org/am_pattern.php?antid=21971 The IDF was much stronger to the East, but the real world conductivity is much better to the SSE and South. It would be nice if we could get a look at the Proofs of Performance...

When you have low conductivity, the signal can increase greatly by going just a few miles closer. When WCXI was at the North Rd. site, just by going a few miles closer, the signal increased quite noticeably, over much the same soil types. Not until you get a mile or so East of my RL, does the soil c...

I made a point to turn off several electronic noisemakers to measure WPON 1460 FI on the FIM-41. 30 miles ENE, it was 150 microvolts per meter. This is just a small fraction of the M-3 Map prediction. This is in the maximum of the major lobe.

WCXI was back on for a couple days, now back to dead air again. I would think, from Tower 14 in Southfield, that you could hit the Wixom transmitter site with a microwave STL, instead of using a flimsy internet connection. Perhaps "Heavy Ken" can tell us whether or not that's possible. :smokin Due ...

Does this make that frequency up for grabs?

No. Let them apply for an STA location to broadcast from in the mean time, and a workable CP, even with flea power at Night. Then make them a reasonable offer.

I wouldn't say daytime is as good as the map here, maybe night time, but not daytime. What do you think is wrong with this map other than the tower being in the middle of Ontario instead of Toronto? My best guess is a decimal point error in entering the power into the programming routine that deter...

Do the newfangled USB digital recording turntables, such as Ion, only have ceramic cartridges, or do some come with magnetic cartridges? Can you easily replace a ceramic to a MM cartridge and lighten the tracking weight?

There's something wrong with this coverage map for CFZM 740.

WFNI 1070 Indianapolis, IN sold their land and took the towers down already, with only a silent STA. Accepted 8-4-21. Not yet granted. WCCW 1310 Traverse City, MI sold their land, not sure when the towers will be removed, but has the old WCCW tower to use for an STA, which was granted 8-27-21. The p...

WJYM can't operate the translator without a licensed AM facility. They just ran a Methods of Moments on the DA with the new tower and 6 bay translator antenna for 106.9. Why would they do all that that if they are moving or going off the air? I don't think you could operate 250 omni licensed Day bec...
