I didn't last night, but I have many times before.
WBCQ is a national treasure for SWL's. For me, he most enjoyable thing about WBCQ is that can tune it in once an hour in any four consecutive hour and it will seem like four different radio stations -- you never know WHAT you'll hear on WBCQ How true Stinger. In my living room listening post, I usually keep the DX-100 (my 1st receiver) tuned to it. I did a little tuning on that piece tonight and have left it on for the last three days in a row. I never noticed before but when I was listening to 'Amos & Andy' the other night, another station was pretty close. I switched it to ssb and tuned the bfo and then the fine tuning and it was 'crystal'..and I mean crystal clear. ...completely got rid of that station. Brought back the joy of using my first piece. What do you think about just leaving a receiver on all the time? A friend of mine said "it wouldn't hurt it".....but my thinking is "why have it on if I'm not home or thirty miles away?" Once it warms up good (hour or two) it doesn't drift, so I don't see the thinking in leaving it on all the time unless I want a short lived mint DX100. ;-) But back to WBCQ, it really is one of the finest going around the bands IMO. BTW, I have the DX399 next to the 100 in case I gotta know the exact freq.:-) That's a hot little receiver in its own rite. I have high hopes that WRMI in Miami will follow their lead. I know I've heard them or about them. What does the letters stand for and where are they on the dial?

They have a nice webpage he http://www.wrmi.net/ , and they broadcast on 7385, 9955, and 15725 kHz. You can see their broadcast pattern he http://www.wrmi.net/images/100_nacovg.jpg (also linked on their main page). As I mentioned before, the IBC radio network used to broadcast over WRMI, and they had some interesting listening. You can see their schedule he http://www.ibcradio.com/radioschedule.htm . They have a lot of paranormal-themed programs like Whitley Strieber's "Dreamland" and "The Lou Gentile Show" which are interesting if you're a fan of broadcasts like Art Bell's. It's "Midnight Radio," but you don't have to stay up as late. If you click on "How to Listen" and then "Shortwave" it says that they're on 7.330 MHz 24/7. However, I've checked in a couple of times and I have yet to hear them there. The only listings I see for that freq. are from some Russian-based broadcasters. -- Stinger |

He figured 10,000 people were listening to the show last night. Frank Dresser 10,000 listeners is pretty good compared to the # of people now listening to Howard Stern I should imagine that a much greater number than 10,000 still listen to Howard Stern. Crummy Channel dropped him from the 6 stations of theirs that were carrying him.. but Infinity is still carrying him, as they are the ones that hold his contract.. Stern still has several hundred thousand listeners in NYC alone. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
