KGHO

I think KGHO is trying out their 92.9 translator in Seattle again. I pick them up in Renton at home for awhile then it switches off and KISM comes in.

Or I'm getting a rare jump from their signals down in the south sound.
 
I think KGHO is moving their main signal to 99.9 in Aberdeen. So more ghosty, multipathed KISW signal in Aberdeen.....
 
Whenever I'm in Renton and tune into 92.9 I get The Mountain! Faint but audible. The KGHO signal isn't good at all, and when they switch things off I get KMTT.

So for you radio experts, why should I be receiving KMTT? Of course I know the answer but do YOU?
 
Ha ha, that's a good one!

The reason I pick up KMTT on 92.9 is that that translator's receiver is tuned to 103.3. Of course you might say "impossible!" KMTT is on 103.7 Megacycles. But au contraire! As we've learned on this board, KMTT owns a translator downtown on 103.3, rebroadcasting 103.7 on 103.3 (for absolutely no good reason in my opinion except to deliver a punchy 100 dbu signal into downtown when they could be using that station to rebroadcast KMTT HD2.......but that's an entirely DIFFERENT topic then what is presented today---so we won't go into how GALACTICALLY STUPID Entercom is for not advocating my position-----no not TODAY would we DARE to envision HD2 on 103.3). Humph.

Anyway, where were we. Oh yes, the 92.9 translator in Des Moines. They feed that off of a repeater in Olympia that the outbound signal is on....yes...you guessed it, 103.3 Megahertz. And now the story is complete.
 
Then that's the reason why sometimes I get KMTT on 92.9 in Auburn. Thought it was bleed at first. First noticed it when trying to look for KDBL Toppenish while KFFM/KXDD were in and out.

Didn't KISM once raise hell about this 92.9 thing down there? I can probably see WHY now....
 
Oh KISM schmism...They never had a leg to stand on and they lost that battle. That translator is so far away and there's intervening terrain (West Seattle & Top Hat) shielding the two signals that SAGA spent lawyer fees for no good reason.
 
KGHO back on. Doesn't sound very good.
