West Coast reception of East Coast BCB's
 
Has anybody on the west coast, west of of the Rockies in general terms, been
able to copy any east coast powerhouse BCB's stations like WLW, KDKA, WSM,
etc.? One time a few years ago I copied WLW on the car radio at 11PM,
caught the ID and the program after the news. I seem to be limited now with
reception from the east as I'm copying more Spanish speaking stations,
either from Mexico or U.S. based stations.

By the way, is IBOC still around or did it finally die off?

VNO,

WLW-AM on 700 kHz at 50KW is an example of
how the old Clear Channel AM/MW Radio Stations
are not-so-clear channel and now only have a
'protected' broadcast zone or 750 {Air} MIles.

FCC AM Query = 137 Records for 700 kHz
http://www.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/amq?state...2=&EW=W&size=9

KDKA 1020 kHz
{FCC has 200+ Records for 1020 kHz}

WSM 650 kHz
{FCC has 136+ Records for 650 kHz}

Maybe you need a Remote Desert DXing Spot :
-Note- Do your Scouting and Set-Up during the
Day and come back around Twilight to start your
DXing.
-Tip- Dress for the Desert and being outdoors.
Boots & Hat + Water, etc.

In Nevada find yourself a one of those long gently
sloping valleys that seam to go on forever . . .

Drive far out into the desert, or at lease a few
miles away from anything man-made.

Get on the western-side of the valley with the
down ward slope facing toward the Eastern Sky.

Run an Insulated Stranded Wire along the Desert
Floor for 100, 200, 500 or 1000 Feet; usually the
longer the better. Point this Wire toward :
CHI ~ 70*
NYC ~ 80*
Shot-the-Middle for Due East @ 90*
ATL ~ 100*
MIA ~ 120*
{your choice}

-Tip- Use a Map and Compass to figure where
you want your Wire to run to hit your Target
Area {City/State} of Reception.

Put a 4-Foot Ground Rod at the far-eastern-end
and Strip an Inch or two of the Insulation from the
End and Attach the Wire to the Ground Rod using
a Clamp.

-Alternative- Use a 1-Watt Resistor between the
end for the Wire and the Ground Rod : 220 Ohm;
330 Ohm; 470 Ohm; 620 Ohm; 750 Ohm; and
910 Ohm. Pick and choose a Resistor to see
what works best for you with this Antenna at
your location. -OR- Don't connect the Wire to
the Ground Rod and see what you hear.

Take a 5-Gallon Jeep Can full of Water and Soak*
the Ground for about a foot or two around the
Ground Rod; use all of the Water.
* Do this to the Ground each time you use
the Antenna for the Night.

At the near-western-end of the Wire Strip back
the Insulation and connect to your AM Radio
or your Car's Whip Antenna.

It is Import to "Mark" this Near-Western-End
Location very well so that you can Find "It" in
the Twilight when you come back : Painted
Stake, Reflectors, Piled Rocks; all three.

I thought the concentration of stations carrying C2C was a bit to high.
However, one night I tuned the entire AM BCB, 530 to 1710 and copied 9
stations carrying C2C. That works out to "every 131 kHz". I'm sure others
have different results to to location, antennas, etc.

A loop is probably the easiest way to hear more stations and it's not
limited to one fixed direction. Keep in mind that many stations use
directional antennas that, although you may think they're an easy
catch for the distance, may prevent you from hearing them.

Here in OH I still occasionally hear KFI-640, KOA-850, KNX-1070, and
some others. Cross-continent DX was definitely much easier years ago.

If I recall correctly, their night time pattern is to the west, to protect
the channel(s) shared by others to the east. So copying them at your

Maybe you'd better tell the ARRL that all those DXCC certificates they

NPR is not cheap if you carry the news magazines. Well into 5 figures at
least.





None of the Public Broadcasting System publications or DVD's are cheap.
Namely to cover publication costs and whatever is left over becomes a
"donation". However, programming as a whole is fairly cheap compared to
commercial broadcasts. That's what I was trying to say.

Dave,

Yes the almost complete and total Liberal Monopoly
of so-called Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations and
NPR is well known.

NPR - Oh the Silence of the Conservatives !

Note - The Real Reason that Air America Radio FAILED
is that Liberals ans Progressives already have three-times
[3X]** as Radio Stations broadcasting the the Left-Wing
Talikng Points as Rush and the Next top 20 Right-Wing
Conservative Talkers combined.
** That Is Not Fairness That's Liberal Slant & Bias [.]

What If the so-called Fairness Doctrine* was applied
to NPR and the Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations and
each had to Air One Hours of The Top 21 Conservative
Talkers a Week @ 3-Hours a Day and 7-Days a Week
* As Liberals want to do to Conservative Talk AM Radio.

Giving less-than Equal Time {~12.5%}* for Truly All
American Conservative Voices on NPR and Pubic
{Non-Profit} Radio Stations.
* While Liberals want Equal Time [50/50] for every Hour
of Conservative Talk Radio.

What If Local Committees* from the Minority {Right}
Conservative Community where empowered to challenge
the Public Service to the Minority Conservative Radio
Listeners of each and every NPR and Pubic {Non-Profit}
Radio Stations ? ? ?
* As Liberals want to do to Conservative Talk AM Radio.

Oops "The Slant" of NPR and Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations

Oops "The Bias" of NPR and Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations

Oops "The Agenda" of NPR and Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations

Oops "The Un-Fairness" of NPR and Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations

NPR and the Pubic {Non-Profit} Radio Stations
is Fooly Funded by indirect subsidies form all
the US Tax Payers :
* US Federal Grants
* US "Charitable" Foundation Grants
* Deductible Matching Donations from US Business
* Deductible Donations from Individuals {US Citizens}
They all Grant and Donate to Pay Lower Taxes and
You Pay More/Higher Taxes to make-up the difference.

Most commercial network stuff is sustained by national ads and costs the
stations nothing.

NPR is run by rich conservatives and funded by large republican
corporations. Only a small part is public funding. They just don't
follow the Stalin propaganda of faux and limpballs crazy foolish mantra
