Bro. Stair LEAVING WWCR ? ? ?

It appears Bro. Stair will be LEAVING WWCR!


Many of us wish he would just dry up and blow away from radio alltogether.

I'm sure if you asked him he'd SAY he is not angry about their needing
more money for the air time they had been selling him at a greatly
reduced price.


(grin)

One possible exception! IF he finds that the other stations are not
providing him the revenue he could be getting from WWCR he *may* decide
to loosen up and pay the going rate at WWCR.

We'll see. I have known a few people who'd cut off their nose to spite
their face! :-)


A few nights ago the old curmudgeon was running his time-tested
"..somebody out there has 100,000 to give me 'cause g-d
told me so" scam, only this time, he was asking for 100K
in Euros! I forget what freq. this was on but it was no doubt
aimed at European audiences as his reputation in the USA
is completely into the toilet from fallout from his trial in SC.

Bottom line is Bro Stairmeister is a relic from the old days
of the traveling circus tent preachers. He knows most people
can see right thru his bull**** so he panders to the ignorant
and uneducated masses to finance his dog-and-pony show.
He'd be better off using regional AM radio to snag more suckers
in the USA.


Al Patrick May 27th 05 12:38 PM

He confirmed my suspicious / expectations this morning. He will NO
LONGER be on WWCR after this week. He's "not angry" but he goes on to
tell about them selling HIS air time to Alex Jones, etc. Also God's
going to get them (WWCR) so to speak. They're going to find out that
most of these other guys who're just in it for the money are soon going
to no longer be able to pay their bills and WWCR will be having a
financial crisis -- all from driving the prophet off their station with
their EXORBITANT prices!

At least Stair isn't just in it for the money. No!

In addition to the money, there are all the destitute young girls on
his "farm".

Yeah !
He's leaving WWCR

He made the switch from mostly AM radio to shortwave back in
the mid-90's as I recall, although I think he's still on the AM station
clear channel out of Cincinnatti (1530 or 1540?) all night starting
around 2:00 am. (?)

Here's some links for shortwave:

www.wwcr.com WWCR

http://www.wwrb.org/ WWRB

http://www.whr.org/ WHRI

www.wbcq.com WBCQ

RG Stair used to blanket shortwave. He used to have a whole
transmitter dedicated to his airtime on WWCR, that is until some
allegations of sexual misconduct ( mostly said over he
www.thenetteam.net )

Since then his radio empire has pretty much fallen
down into the tank and is now circling the drain
so to speak. It's amazing that anyone at all fell for his BS for so
long...

He's definitely into AM as well. But I wouldn't underestimate the
amount of gullibility in the US.

Al Patrick May 29th 05 08:01 PM

He hurt his influence, authority and sponsorship when it became known
that he had been laying the little ladies at the camp. I visited there
and noticed that he placed a lot of PUBLIC emphasis on the virgins,
even pointing out a few who were. He seemed to be a bit pre-occupied
with the subject.

....But then to find, at least according to testimonies, that this was
not a one time deal but had been going on for a long period of time with
him supposedly telling one or more of the girls how to cause a
spontaneous abortion - without telling them that's what they'd actually
be doing!

....All the time telling the world that NOT ONE CHILD OF GOD HAD EVER
BEEN ABORTED, or something to that effect, explaining that till God
breathed the breath of life into them they did not become a living soul.
Until they are born they do not breath. It sounds to me like he was
trying to justify the action he was having the girls to take and
possibly ease their minds or consciences should they realize that they
caused the abortion / miscarriage by following his directions.

He still preaches a lot of truth but many folks expect him to PRACTICE
what he preaches! Yes, God can still use him. He used a jackass one
time. He's probably used some of us who were about as unworthy as the
jackass.

I expect him to learn that he should have stayed with WWCR, at least
part time. However, I suspect his pride will not allow him to ever go
back. He probably feels they did him wrong by not continuing to
"sponsor" him by supplementing his air time. Let's see if he gets the
same listenership, support, etc. from the other stations, even though
they may be a bit cheaper.

The world moves on!

The next chapter?

Divide 300 by the meter designation to get the approximate frequency
in MHz. In real terms, that's around 5, 5.9-6.2, 7.1-7.5, and 9.3-10 MHz.

Really, they should just drop the meter band stuff, which dates back
to the early 1900s. VOA doesn't bother with meters anymore.

Meters are wavelength, which helps put frequency of operation in
perspective when you talk about antennas, transmission lines and other
receiving components.

If people don't want information in meters they should speak up like
you have and if enough do then I'll drop the terminology.

Wave length in meters is just the inverse of frequency.

Anyhow, shibboleth's aside, went through the freqs.
that I was pointed to and didn't hear Bro. Stair.
Alot of religious programming though.
Did listen to Radio Netherlands a while.
I'm in South Florida so I've been picking up alot of Spanish stations.
After listening to local AM for about 10 years (haven't had a SW radio since
95)
it's a nice change.

I heard Bro. Stair this morning about 6:50. He was calling for radio
checks. He was still on 5070 and I believe he said he was still on 7465
and a couple of other NON-WWCR SW frequencies. Seems he said WWCR
promised to carry him till Wednesday and then that is to be IT. He's
making the best he can of the WWCR frequencies by telling the world
where they can find him on the competition's frequencies. :-)

5070 was booming into eastern NC this morning about that time. I think
he got a call from FL that said they were getting it pretty good.

Interesting you should bring up shibboleth. For those who don't know
it's in Judges 12, verses 1-6. Seems 42,000 people died that day but
probably not all because they could not say shibboleth. They were
saying sibboleth, leaving out the first h.

The shibboleth was off your post.
Maybe Talamon was messing with me because I'm new and
wouldn't be able to figure out the meter designations he gave.

Yeah, YHWH is one nasty ****er. According to one Bible translation, he
killed 70,000 people because they didn't sufficiently rejoice when they
heard His Name. Strange thing is, most Jews I've met have been much
nicer than their god.

Snip

I'm not messing with you. This is basic terminology not something
exotic. The majority of short wave broadcasts occur in designated bands
of frequencies. The bands are identified by the inverse of a rounded
frequency in the band. This is how the broadcast bands are identified.

wavelength = speed of propagation/frequency

In oder to calculate in meters the formula is
wavelength in meters = (300 meters/sec) / (frequency in MHz/sec)

so 60 meters is 5 MHz. The 60 meter band is 4.750 MHz to 5.060 MHz

BAND MEGAHERTZ (MHz) KILOHERTZ (KHz)

120 m 2.300-2.500 MHz 2300-2500 KHz
90 m 3.20-3.40 MHz 3200-3400 KHz
75 m 3.90-4.00 MHz 3900-4000 KHz
60 m 4.750-5.060 MHz 4750-5060 KHz
49 m 5.950-6.20 MHz 5950-6200 KHz
41 m 7.10-7.60 MHz 7100-7600 KHz
31 m 9.20-9.90 MHz 9500-9900 KHz
25 m 11.600-12.200 MHz 11600-12100 KHz
22 m 13.570-13.870 MHz 13570-13870 KHz
19 m 15.10-15.80 MHz 15100-15800 KHz
16 m 17.480-17.90 MHz 17480-17900 KHz
13 m 21.450-21.850 MHz 21450-21850 KHz
11 m 25.60-26.10 MHz 25600-26100 KHz

By knowing the wavelength of a frequency you get an understanding of the
size of the resonant antenna to receive it.

It happened more than once in history. During a revolt on Corsica
or Sardinia they had a variant pronunciation for some kind of bean
(vegetable) that got your throat slit if you didn't say it the right way.

Well, when I have a specific instance in mind I type out the frequency
but in this case I was tuning through the bands and recalled that I
heard Brother Stair in passing through them but did not stay to listen
so I generalized that I heard him on certain bands. I did not note the
specific frequencies that I heard him on. The bands are noted by meters
not frequency so you must then have a frequency definition of the SWBC
bands.

kHz is so much easier! Typing in 15145 is much easier than 15.145...

And kHz is generally what the cognoscenti use, at least in shortwave.

Er, what's wrong with using "The 7 MHz Band" instead of "The 39 Meter
Band" (or 41 or whatever number is used). A quick look in the FCC
regulations (Part 73 subpart F) shows that officaldom doesn't bother
with meter band designations.

To bring this back to WWCR or whoever is running in the 3 MHz band,
what regulations are they operating under? My (older, 1989) copy
of the broadcast regs says that international broadcasting starts in
bands above 5950 kHz. (73.702f)

How about Megahertz?


Well, when I have a specific instance in mind I type out the frequency
but in this case I was tuning through the bands and recalled that I
heard Brother Stair in passing through them but did not stay to listen
so I generalized that I heard him on certain bands. I did not note the
specific frequencies that I heard him on. The bands are noted by meters
not frequency so you must then have a frequency definition of the SWBC
bands.


Er, what's wrong with using "The 7 MHz Band" instead of "The 39 Meter
Band" (or 41 or whatever number is used). A quick look in the FCC
regulations (Part 73 subpart F) shows that officaldom doesn't bother
with meter band designations.

To bring this back to WWCR or whoever is running in the 3 MHz band,
what regulations are they operating under? My (older, 1989) copy
of the broadcast regs says that international broadcasting starts in
bands above 5950 kHz. (73.702f)


Legally, WWCR is NOT supposed to be on 3210. The US has NO freq
allocations in the tropical bands, neither does anywhere else in the
western world, and that's to keep bands open for fleawatt transmitters
in the third world, where many people even today rely a lot on SW. The
FCC is doing a **** poor job of regulating SW because there's no profit
in it and no powerful lobbying group (like the NAB) pushing its
interests in Washington. Remember when WWFV broadcast on 6890 (I think)
which is outside of EVERY SINGLE broadcast band, ham band, or any other
band, and the FCC didn't do a damn thing about it? One mega fine would
have shut down those losers right now, but the FCC didn't act. Same
thing with WWCR, if the FCC wanted to they could stop them from
broadcasting in the tropical bands where they're NOT supposed to be, but
the FCC won't do it. Our govt has totally been taken over by money-the
more dough you have, the more access and influence you get-and it sucks.

OK, we will see how that works.

In this area, KFBK on 1530 khz drowns out KMPC, so I can't hear this.
Besides, I've got WWCR shortwave to listen to. :)
