Low Power Translator at 92.9

[Bill Betten]

I made a call down to Tacoma, the translator is staying. No time line for construction of the CP yet either,

This PLU Satellator robot Class A will indeed be hammered by CBUX FM1. Apparently the American's are ok with accepting this interference. In normal circumstances in the U.S. for an allocation to be accepted you have to have no interference caused nor received, or be in the table of allotments.

In return, PLU (KPYU) gets limited coverage up in Skagit County. They are asking for the non-studio waiver.

Here's a map of the interference received on the last page of the document.

As for your interference issues, I would suggest you purchase a really bad radio with no selectivity. Then you will just get KMIH or KPYU exclusivley flipping back and forth rather than all three signals, depending upon where you are currently located.

OUCH!

This looks a lot worse than I expected. I'll even venture to suggest it's even better to just leave the often hashy in Mount Vernon 91.1 translator (thanks to CJZN 91.3) alone.

CBUX-FM1's 88.9 MHz signal ain't nothing to be messed with on the hills of Mount Vernon. For a station 52 miles directly west away (as the crow flies), they might as well be 52 FEET away up on LaVenture. The 4 watt Jesuscaster on 89.1 isn't even mentionable and I have my doubts even KPYU's 2,500 watts coming from a cell tower riddled hillside slightly northeast of Burlington can put much of a dent in it.....

K225AX FM Translator is fighting back! Here's their opposition filing. Boy, would I LOVE to see these pleadings.

SAGA is toast to be complaining about actual interference when this translator is not even operational. Let me ask you this......how can you have actual interference (that's the standard) when the darn thing isn't even on? What a joke. The Commission should dismiss this PROMPTLY.

NW Rock n Roll Preservation Society is in reality one person, Brian Spencer. Mailing address is his mother's home in Oregon. Brian is also the one person who runs KGHO-LP, as "Grays Harbor LPFM", which is the originating station for Brian's several FM translators (as NW Rock n Roll Preservation Society), which extend the KGHO-LP signal over a couple of counties. Same Brian Spencer just picked up a fullpower non-comm CP in Aberdeen (25 kw). Apparently the FCC is so engulfed in EAS violations that they have no time to thoroughly check the veracity of the non-comm applications.
