89.9 In / Near Tulsa?

G

GeneSavage

Monday afternoon I caught a weak signal on FM 89.9 (or 88.9? Darn it, I was sure before I walked inside...); I assumed it was somebody's translator but it wasn't Air 1 & it wasn't KOSU so I stuck around long enough to hear it was something called The Genesis Communications Network. (http://www.gcnlive.com/)

I heard 25 Hz tones at the top of the hour but never any legal (or translator, or local) ID.

I picked it up near 71st & Lewis, with static but not unlistenable.

Any guesses? The FCC search didn't really turn up anything that looked right... if I'm wrong on the frequency & it was 88.9, could it be OKC or Grove?

..Pirates for Jesus?
 
GCN is a network that is rebroadcast by many a pirate broadcaster around the country...and legitimate stations, too. It's the home of Alex Jones, host and instigator of infowars.com.
 
I can confirm it was 89.9 FM, and the signal seems to be strongest in midtown... MAYBE. I wonder if it could just be topography affecting the signal. About the time I would think it was clearing up it would go to static, and about the time I would think it was gone, it would strengthen. North of Tulsa it started going away for good.

I heard an ad for somebody running for sheriff for Travis County, Texas. (???) The ad was during a (loony tunes) show hosted by a former sheriff, so I worry that the ad might have been for the host of the show and therefore useless for identifying the location of the transmitter.

Travis County appears to be home of Austin, Texas... which (despite what the atmosphere is capable of) seems an unlikely candidate as the source of this station that didn't legal ID but ran an ad for a county sheriff's race. (Again, ???)

I've got a real mystery on my hands with this one... and as goofy as the show was ("everyone knows" 9/11 was an inside job, Oswald "obviously" didn't shoot Kennedy, and "buy these seeds to survive 7 years of famine or be owned by the new world order!"), kinda like a train wreck, I found it hard to turn away.

That. and I wanted a frickin' ID!

There's a transmitter in Overland, TX but it isn't supposed to be much bigger than a space heater... hm...
 
Milton77: That helps some! Thank you!

"low power FM..." OK, so are we talking part 15 here, or pirate, or... because I didn't see a licensed 89.9 in Tulsa at FCC.gov. Anybody know where their antenna is (approximately) located?

They're right, btw... NOBODY on the radio is saying what they're saying... maybe Coast-To-Coast AM... wowza...

Time to sharpen my tin-foil hat...
 
A friend of mine and I tracked them down twice once at a house on NW 31st and Military and then the second time just two house's west from the old house house. What is funny is the house that it was at had an Obama sign in the front yard haha kinda funny when this group is preaching for Ron Paul who is a republican from Texas. Go Figure.

Ryan: Absolutely wild! Thanks for the info.

I can pick up 89.9 in MOST of Tulsa to one degree or another, although the closer to the river I get the better it seems to sound. They're running in mono which is smart, and other than not filtering the cue tones I have to say they sound pretty good. I'm not hearing any local content at all, though.

It sounds like their daytime programming maybe isn't quite as goofy as what I heard last night... although I did hear an ad today saying turning your assets into gold will help if you're in a hurricane. (???)

I'll miss them when they go, but for now it's an entertaining alternative to all the political garbage seeping out of all ends of the radio dial.

!VIVA LA RESISTANCE! ;D
 
Not that I've heard, but that doesn't mean anything... they could be operating when I'm not rolling across the dial, or I could be out of their coverage area all the time.

BTW, I drove north on Yale from 71st last night (dinner at Diamond Jacks... YUM) & while the rumor mill suggested they might be near TU, I no longer think so... by about 15th Street I was getting significant interference from an NPR affiliate / college station playing traditional jazz (maybe from Kansas?). I jumped on I-244 EB and continued to have the interference almost until Hwy 169... so the question becomes, did I get far enough away from the legit station, or closer to the pirate? I'm still not sure.

Last night I was listening over the internet and hear the most WONDERFUL news about this WONDERFUL tea that CURES cancer, CURES hemorrhoids, CURES high blood pressure, and the guy was willing to SELL it to me!

How great is THAT!!!

OBVIOUSLY the government is trying to suppress this information to control society through disease... right??? ;)
 
I wonder if they have tin foil in there house to keep the government from looking at them? You can also buy this certain kind of water that when the government poisons us that we can live an extra three days or so on this so called clean water.
 
How about Willard Water. It's wetter water and better for you. Tin hat required. See store for details. Sorry Arkansas, not available in your state! The black choppers will be flying over soon so I have to go hide now in my tin-foil wrapped home with a bomb-shelter under the garage. ;)

That would be KRPS from Pittsburg State University, and the only thing I've been able to pick up, faintly, on 89.9 on the East side of Tulsa.
 
The black choppers and guys dressed in all black uniforms slid into their home and stole away the transmitter. Of course, the government wouldn't admit that. It's a conspiracy I tell ya! (LOL!!!!)
 
People told me I was a conspiracy theorist when I hinted that someday the government would take over the banks.

No one's laughing.
 
People thought the same thing when I said that the Army is being deployed on our shores for a year starting October 1st. Now it's in the mainstream news.
 
Where can I get some of that tea?

I've got a 'roid about ready to bust!
 
They're gone! :'(

For the tea, I'm sure these people can help:

Looks like they're also selling hemp, survival kits, and a spray that's supposed to keep cops from photographing your license plate if you run a red light. The lead story on the front page says:

USA now the Obamanation, Illuminati and elites are always the real winners in elections, politicians ruled behind the scenes by the powerful, gold and silver futures have been suppressed, more economic bubbles coming, stock market losses to reduce global wealth by trillions

...What a fascinating mix of morality & immorality these guys are...
