When I use radio-locator to identify open freqs in the same area as qkc, it shows 93.7 as still available. I had thought not possible though because of incroachment from 93.9 in indy and louisville. Is that the case, or would a lower power signal be allowed at the same location or perhaps 93.5?

93.7 Freq Availability in Jackson County Area
- Thread starter dfwrunner
- Start date
Once I94 (whatever their calls du jour are - still WRWM?) goes to a B1, any presently available allocation would disappear.
There's also a Class A on 93.5 being dropped in south of Columbus that will wipe out any 93.7 prospects.
plus with 93.9 Indy goes B1, the Class a at 93.5 south of columbus, along with the 93.9 Terre Haute moving to 93.7 all but eliminated the old Seymour allocation
As always, the allocation buzzards were circling that one long before the last song played.MikeStandardsFromIndiana said:
I wanted to give 93.7 back to the people of Seymour. But, study the FCC's mileage
separation requirements. 93.7 is short spaced to WFCJ in Miamisburg, Ohio by 14 miles.
The old Seymour station was grandfathered on this channel. The frequency wasn't even open
for a Class A.
Commercial Class A stations on 96.3 and 92.7 have moved to Seymour. Plus there are about
4 non-coms for Jackson County.
There are 2 undiscovered commercial channels left in this state. They are in towns with about 1,000
people in the middle of nowhere. I suspect they will never be built. After all, in today's world,
they are a ticket to bankruptcy.

I already lost 88.3.. and 107.5 is open,, but would get hamered out by WRZQ< though wouldnt cause WRZQ Interference,, I guess either there or 98.1....... It only goes 200 to 500 feet depending on the radio...
What's on 98.9 and 99.1 there?Mid West Clubber said:

I still get Kiss FM louisville on 98.9, and 99.1 is tri 99 in Champaign Illinois,,, Of course sometimes 107.5 The River from Nashville comes in on 107.5.. I really dont want to use a good DX frequency.. Im gonna stick with 93.5 if the station is not powerful enough to be heard hear,, but if I can hear anything at all I wont transmit.
Has the change taken place? Are they on the 790 AM tower now?KyDXIn said:
I'm not sure but here's the radio-locator info: http://www.radio-locator.com/info/WZKF-FMBobOnTheJob said:
When I saw your comment that it had gotten moved, I figured that it had happened. When they change the legal ID from Salem to Prospect, that'll probably be a good indicator that it's changed. If you drive by the 790 towers (Taylorsville Rd exit on Gene Snyder) and see FM antennas on 2 of the 4 towers, that would also be a sign of progress.KyDXIn said:
Agreed...I was speaking purely from a technical standpoint. That said, Salem,IN is better served than most small towns...no automation in that WSLM AM/FM combo.dfwrunner said:
