KFI transmitter off the air
The 640 KFI transmitter just dropped out. Just before it dropped out
started sounding a little funny. It's only been on a few weeks now. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

S meter is not where it was before the dropout. They still have problems to solve. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

They are back on the air but signal strength is not what it was before this event. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

All of a sudden the voice peaks sounded kind of fuzzy and then the carrier dropped out altogether. They went from 10 over S9 to S7. Got any idea when the new transmitter will be fixed? -- Telamon Ventura, California |

Got any idea when the new transmitter will be fixed? Supposedly the "new" transmitter, which they used at Montecito Hts also, had "internal combustion" and is not coming back. KFI is awaiting a new Nautel instead. |

They are using a backup trasnsmitter, not the aux tower. |

Dead Air here for KFI on 640 kHz; but most of the 'other' LA and SD AM-MW Radio Stations were coming in very well. ~ RHF Twain Harte, CA |
