DE - That was "KOAC" 550 kHz - in Corvallis, OR
- which is part of the Oregon Public Radio System.

DE - I am simply reporting on what I 'observed'
last night on the Radio.


Night HD is still not authorized. The FCC approved, but we are waiting for
the publication in the Federal register for the FCC to give the go-ahead.

KFI, for example, has not had HD on since their tower fell over 2 and a
half
years ago.

Why don't they fix it? They need to put up an antenna like KNBR's.


Zoning. FAA, etc. Still no permit to build, but likely replacing the 770
foot tower with a 660 foot top loaded one at same site in 4 to 6 months.
Station will move to the former Montecito Heights KRKD location at low power
for the time it takes to put up the tower.
