Re: CHYR Radio 7 Leamington

The Day pattern of CHYR 710 with 10000 watts had a very wide major lobe, and had a better signal than CKLW 800 in the areas to the Northwest which are being discussed on other threads as being worse now than they remembered. https://www.fccinfo.com/CMDProEngine.php?tabSearchType=Appl&sCurrentService...

Re: WCFL “The Big 10” Chicago

I loved 'CFL during the Ken Draper years. Chickenman. The Johnny Mann jingle package. The line-up included Wixie alum Joel Sebastian. Funny thing, WCAR 1130 (now WDFN) hired Draper and much of the 'CFL staff a couple of years later and the attempt to recreate the 'CFL magic bombed. What years was t...

Re: AM Civil Defense pre-1963

WJR-FM 96.3 essentially simulcast WJR 760, and apparently had some similar role in warnings. WFBE 95.1 had a big 10 element Yagi at the top of their tower at FCHS to pick this up. The late Ed Rauch told me about that was why it was there, but I cant remember how it was supposed to work.

Re: Legal Experts-Lawfare Won't Stop Trump

I've said it once and I'll say it again - if Trump is convicted of anything and wins the presidency, he'll simply use the 25th Amendment to have his VP pardon him . 25th Amendment, Section 3. Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of...

Re: Legal Experts-Lawfare Won't Stop Trump

There are so many crazy despots in the world, Trump is not even "on the spectrum". Leaders of many countries are elected for life. Four more years is all you could get here. I've put up with many of your Presidents for 8 years, why should yours be allowed for 8 years but not the other 50% of the peo...

Lawfare Won't Stop Trump.

Re: WCFL “The Big 10” Chicago

I agree, WCFL also had better reception here in the Detroit area at night. WLS had times that were tough to pull in but Super CFL came in like a local. John Landecker grew up in Ann Arbor, and mentioned in an interview that he preferred WCFL to WLS when growing up in the late 1960s. Not sure if it ...

Re: WCFL “The Big 10” Chicago

In many ways, WCFL was better than WLS in the 1965-1976 Top 40 Era. Consider that many of the same DJs worked at both stations over the years. Look at the Music Surveys in the 1965-1976 Era. Pretty much the same. WCFL was a little more adventurous in breaking records. WCFL had a superior signal to W...

Re: FCC Station Totals September 30, 2023

The AM stations are not dropping off like I thought they would. They are probably waiting for some type of replacement facility rules on an FM frequency, like Canada did years ago. It would be like Canada and Mexico did, changing and bending rules to accommodate this, and using contour overlap, dir...

Re: Are You OK With Banks Helping Government Spy On Loyal Citizens?

Those regulations were supposed to be to track mobsters and other felony criminals, not people who Constitutionally and peacefully assemble, and at the absolute worst, committed an obscure misdemeanor, as evidenced by thousands of exculpatory and previously withheld videos, and are held without bond...

I never had a MAGA hat.

You undoubtedly have one of these though.
