I used to work on towers and their systems. Do you want to know how multiple towers are phased? It's just funny to see it directly from overhead and in the middle of a residential area. What happened was the system was in place out in the middle of nowhere for years, but as growth occured it built up around the transmitter site. VegasNightOwl |

As far as I known nobody has complained about a tower in their neighborhood in this town. I'm certain that when they came in or checked the neighborhood they saw it sticking up, all 200 feet of it, and maybe said something to the realtor and they said it's been there before you and it will be there no matter what you say. The smart ones latched on to it and knew what was said. It never affected the dumber ones since they weren't concerned about it in the first place. VegasNightOwl |

That Radio Tower is such an Eye Sore and at night the Fluorescent Light in the Bathroom never quite goes off again; once you turn it on.

There was a station back in Pennsylvania, WESA, that used to be daytime only. Then they were granted permission for night time transmissions. Their night time power was 10 watts down from their 250 daytime power. Not sure how it ever faired but it was interesting to even think if anybody copied them outside of 200 miles or so.

I couldn't figure out why they bothered. They may have been heard within a few blocks of the tower site (omni stick), but further than that they would have been destroyed by splatter from KOMO 1000 in Seattle, which puts in a 'local' level signal at night. |

I'd have to wonder why bother either at 10 watts. Then again, you have alot of people who are up all night and you never know who will be tuning in. However, 10 watts on even a somewhat open frequency and depending on the surround terrain, hills, flat, etc., coverage could be further than you anticipate, even with a regional powerhouse like KOMO on a nearby frequency.

The more recent scarring indicates they need better performance from the ground and have buried some "screen". http://msrmaps.com/map.aspx?t=1&s=10...=8&fc=ffffff99 I also recall seeing a 3 or 4 tower array along Silverado Ranch Road between Gillespie and Bermuda. The area has been built up but you can clearly see where the building was and the foundations for the 4 towers along with some ground trenching for the radials. I don't have the the lat-long but look on google maps for Silverado Ranch Road east of LV BLVD. The last tower came down in 2003. I've been trying to find out what station it was but not having any luck. VegasNightOwl 720 has a 4 tower array in Henderson, but I think they've always been there. I got a contact at Cox in LV, he'd know. I'll try to remember his name... It's actually a 3 tower array. Plug these co-ordinates into Google Maps and it is smack right on. 36° 04' 22" N, 114° 58' 20" W VegasNightOwl Whatever. KDWN comes in like a local here in SoCal. |

With a Nighttime Power of just 43 Watts : They need all the help from the ground that they can get. ~ RHF . 43 Watts is plenty if the frequency's clear. There was a station back in Pennsylvania, WESA, that used to be daytime only. Then they were granted permission for night time transmissions. Their night time power was 10 watts down from their 250 daytime power. Not sure how it ever faired but it was interesting to even think if anybody copied them outside of 200 miles or so. VegasNightOwl When the new (at the time) station in Milwaukie (suburb of Portland, OR) came on the air on 1010 KHz a couple decades or so ago, it had a daytime power of 10KW, and a nighttime power of 10W. I couldn't figure out why they bothered. They may have been heard within a few blocks of the tower site (omni stick), but further than that they would have been destroyed by splatter from KOMO 1000 in Seattle, which puts in a 'local' level signal at night. I'd have to wonder why bother either at 10 watts. Then again, you have alot of people who are up all night and you never know who will be tuning in. However, 10 watts on even a somewhat open frequency and depending on the surround terrain, hills, flat, etc., coverage could be further than you anticipate, even with a regional powerhouse like KOMO on a nearby frequency. VegasNightOwl There's a TIS station on 810 at UCLA. They destroy KGO at night all over West Los Angeles. |

During the winter months I can copy KFI-640 at 10am or even at 11am without much of a problem. After that, I loose it for a bit then very late in the afternoon it comes in again. VegasNightOwl You can get KTLK 1150 AM at night better than it comes in here. |

My station's antenna is on the northernmost tower photo. It is the 12 bay UHF antenna on the lower left. One of the microwave dishes was mine as well. |
