DAVE's signal

T

TheRealOtherNeil

Has anyone else noticed that DAVE's signal is really weak? I live near the Mall of Georgia and it has a lot of static and hiss. What gives? Techno geeks, do you know what's happeneing? Or is having a weak signal all of the sudden considered rock without rules?<P ID="signature">______________

When in Atlanta, listen to 85 FM DIRK!</P>

My portable digital AM/FM radio that only picks up 100kw stations is having issues picking up DAVE FM lately. Aren't Q100 and Dave on the same tower? Is Q's signal upgrade interfering with Dave's signal?

Poor Dave had a transmission line/antenna failure yesterday! They are on a backup antenna with aprox 15,000 watts.(That's still more power than Q100 even after their upgrade!)
Dave will be moving soon to a new site with new transmitters and antenna. Bet the engineer is counting the hours until the new site is built and operational.

Yep.
 
I thought Dave was moving to the 99X / Kicks 101.5 tower this weekend when I heard the weak signal. Those two have better signal now, since moving to that tower. I guess I'll have to wait a little longer. Any word on when the move will happen?<P ID="signature">______________
