With KOVE at 106.5 and KHPT at 106.9, there cannot and will not be a 106.7 in our area.

KGBC appears to run the EWTN Catholic Radio Network, so it is almost certain the reference was made on an EWTN program regarding a station (or translator) outside the Houston market.

Cant be a full service signal in Beaumont with 106.1 and 107.9...(gotta be 800kHz away from either unless its LPFM..and there's 107.1 in Port Arthur)
More likely a translator somewhere....

Perhaps they slipped a decimal place, or maybe a whole number.

CW you are right, a translator in Simonton on 106.7, K294BH. It is a CP and will be some time I imagine before becoming reality. It is from the great translator invasion of 2003 and was licensed to Primera Iglesia Evangelica De Apostoles Y Profetas out of Dallas. The CP was sold December 13, 2005 to Hector Guervare of Pasadena. He paid $150K for just the CP, no building. land, tower, just the CP. I didn't know that translators where worth that much.
K294BH 106.7 250 watts at 50 meters HAAT. In Simonton on FM1093 (Westheimer).

So it would be a really bad effort to cover the city of Houston - a magnitude worse than the KIOL / KFNC efforts. "All of Houston" must mean the immediate area of Simonton, Fulshear, maybe even Katy on a good day. The people doing promoting this as something to cover "all of Houston" need to have their crack pipes taken away from them.

yeah the K294BH is correct because that is the person who is on 1540AM my question is how much reach can they have with 250watts i remember that a translator could only be used on a FM main signal and not a AM is this wrong?

You are correct. FM translators can only rebroadcast FM signals. There are some waivers for this in Alaska, but that's considered a special case that cannot be applied to the lower 48 states.<P ID="signature">______________
