Mt Washington Valey Visitor Information Radio

Hi there folks, and greetings from north of the border in Ontario Canada. I know it's been a while since I've checked in here. I am very pleased to see that WMWV in Conway seems to have gotten its act together in regard to its audio stream, and is just running their local spots instead of substituting national PSAs and then joining the Briggs Bunker and the Mount Washington Observatorys phone calls already in progress during the Morning Weather Show. By the way, I really enjoyed Roy's June 14th broadcast from the summit of Mount Washington, that was fun to listen to. I'm also so pleased to see WMTK, the NOtch at 106.3 in Littleton streaming on the net. I especially enjoy the local newscasts plus their music.

I do have a favor to ask if anyone in the Mount Washington valley area checks out this board. While listening to WMWV the other day, I learned that Mount Washington Valley Visitor Information Radio is not only carried on the old WBNC AM at 1050, but on an FM frequency of 95.3 as well. I'm wondering if someone could record an mp3 file of that station for me. I would love to hear a full cycle of that station both during summer, and winter as well. Actually a cycle during peak fall foliage season would be interesting as well. If there is someone with the technical know how to do this, I would appreciate that tremendously. I used to have grandparents who lived in the area, and I have very fond memories of the Conway Bartlett area, and although I've found a brief aircheck of the old WBNC available on the net, the aircheck is highly edited and they faded out each segment and then faded it in again at the end. I would like to hear a complete cycle of this MOunt Washington Valley Visitor Information Radio in real time.

Also, is there anyone up in Berlin who can record some of the two Berlin stations, preferably from their FM translators on 99.3 and 106.1 respectively? I understand that WKDR is airing an all news format, so hearing one of their half hour or hour morning blocks would really be interesting to hear, as well as some morning programming from WMOU 1230 or 106.1 FM. What I would almost give a part of my male anatamy for, is a 1960's aircheck of Berlin's top 40 station at the time, WBRL at 1400. I've only been trying to get an aircheck of this station since 1967. Well, if anyone can help by supplying any of these recordings for me, you can E-mail me at Sam but with a small letter s, and then the name of my website which is audioldies dot net. If you like oldies and radio, you might want to look around. Thanks in advance.

Unless something has changed (and I know ownership hasn't) All the Berlin stations you listed are simulcasts of Littleton, NH stations, none of which are news/talk.
 
Thanks for listening to our stations! I can send you an aircheck of VIR. Just hit me with an email. [email protected]

Well Cooper, what happened? I know, you got busy and simply forgot. Believe me, I do understand how busy being a radio station PD can make you, especially during ratings time so I'm not trying to bug you or anything here. If I still had relatives living in the area with the technical know how to make a recording of this station as an MP3 file,, I'd ask them to do it for me but unfortunately on Christmas eve of 2010, my last relative in the area passed away so I don't have any family in the area any more, at least that I know and am corresponding with. Anyway, since it's winter now, perhaps this would be a good time to make the winter recording of Mount Washington Valley Visitor Information Radio and then next summer, perhaps you or someone else in the area can make a summer recording of the station for me as well because the activities in the area will be very different than in the winter. Also, a fall recording would be interesting during the peak period of fall foliage. You can contact me using my first name sam at audioldies.net and I truly do look forward to some sample recordings of this FM station in the Mount Washington Valley at 95.3. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hey Cooper, it's no biggy, everyone gets busy. I'm just curious to know though, did you ever get the E-mails that I sent you last summer? The only reason I'm asking is that some E-mail clients tend to block any E-mails coming from audioldies.net since it is an unrecognized E-mail address, and I was just wondering if they did get through to you? Keep giving those folks in the valley your magic! Grin.
