Certainly is relevant to rec.radio.shortwave(?)

640 kHz is... ah... well, you get the idea.


I have no idea what you mean.

The AM broadcast band in just below the lowest SW band and uses the same
type of modulation the international broadcaster use.


Higher the frequency, lower the wavelength: shortwave... nuffink to do
with "type of modulation".

I take it you have
a problem discussing AMBCB in this news group?


Ah, um, gee... it certainly is outside the parameters of a "shortwave"
group.

Dat's the name: rec.radio.SHORTWAVE.

But then, to be fair, a huge proportion of the pap that gets posted to
the group doesn't have any connection to radio, so mebbe we should
sing praises of whatever.

I sort of get the idea that 640 is "mediumwave".

That woud be 'shorter the wavelength', not lower the wavelength.

You'll get the hang of it.

Wow! One of the boys here is paying attention.

I went fishing, an' I got A Bite.

dxAce, I'm surprised you took the worm.

My point is: 640 kHz is "mediumwave".

This is rec.radio.shortwave.

Open wide, and Y-A-W-N.

Only if you are smoking pot.

I take it you have a problem discussing AMBCB in this news group?

Ah, um, gee... it certainly is outside the parameters of a
"shortwave" group.

Dat's the name: rec.radio.SHORTWAVE.

But then, to be fair, a huge proportion of the pap that gets posted
to the group doesn't have any connection to radio, so mebbe we should
sing praises of whatever.

I sort of get the idea that 640 is "mediumwave".


Thanks for straightening me out on that.

Never did find out what happened. The KFI news department just emailed
me back with thanks for the heads up.

This was definitely a problem at Buena Park. The Montecito site is not
ready; the toploading of the tower to be used is not done, so it is some
time before they switch.

No, you did not indicate that at all. The fact is that the transmitter is
installed, the internal AC and other wiring is about ready, but the riggers
have not replaced the upper guy on one of the three Montecito towers with
uninsulated top-loading guys. Once that is done, the tower has to be
measured an the ATU built or modified. They may have to do some detuning to
the other two towers.
