KXEB's signal

What the hell was up with 910's signal this afternoon??
It was WAAAY overmodulated and sounded like s**t!
If they plan on making any inroads they better clean
it up quick, or get some board ops that know how to
ride it at 100, instead of 300 percent!.

Maybe it's a 'line setting' or 'line equalization' thing, or
perhaps the ground lug of a 'pot' opened up, applying full
program 'line' audio to the transmitter chain ...

I have reasonable basis for a doubt that it was the result of 'board op'
making any kind of operational error, as they to be blessed with super-
human abilitys and they don't make mistakes (so I have been informed
on this board after blaming 'board ops' for other perceived anomolies
going out over-the-air on a Class 1-A 50 KW ND station in this market) ...

KXEB needs a helluva lot more than signal help. If they don't show up this book it may be a lost cause. What would help Air America is if they had someone other than a bottom tier player like BMP running the show. You can't run a station in Dallas using the same formula from the Rio Grande Valley.

It's fairly obvious they aren't selling jack squat, the same 3 PSAs from the Ad Council every break are REALLY tired and their broadcast clocks are STILL f*cked up.

Most likely there isn't even a board op at the helm. BMP is heavily invested in Scott Studios technology so it's probably unattended.
