Who votes for 1340 to become Philadelphia's only All Time All the Time station? On the HD sideband you could have SMPTE time code or all that fun hash interference. On the quarter hours you could have lessons on the history of time. And think of all those fun little beeps. ..I vote yes! Let 1340 not be wasted any longer in the 2 square miles it covers.

New Time Code Station

Well at least there won't be any doubt as to what time zone will be used. One has a better chance of pitching a penny from City Line Avenue to the moon than he does of hearing that station outside the Eastern Time Zone. No need for GMT on this thing.
I want to be the one who says, "At the tone, four hours, thirty-one minutes, Eastern Daylight-Saving Time."
Chirp, chirp, chirp, pause, beep. Bong, bong, bong, bong...

Sam, your comments about a 1000 watt mono AM graveyard channel that has no longer a purpose to serve is uncalled for. I am deeply offended and I am asking for a complete oral written apology to every market listed on Radio-Info. Until stated...I will boycott satellite and the internet like many of the other morons who like to speculate on how to revive a dead horse on here.
Great post as always Samski. I think we should sign them all off and make only ONE station on every 3rd channel on AM across the country. You'd only have a few signals, but imagine the DX-ing possibilities? And, it could be Hy Lit Radio on every OTHER dial position. I, of course, will program the others. BE BIG!

We have already had 7.333 Mhz. "CHU Canada. Eastern Standard time, 19-hours, 23-minutes"...BEEP, beep, beep. beep.
One of my favs as a kid!

Salt water propagation does do well. I was in Duck, NC a few years ago, and caught the Atlantic City graveyarders and WIBG 1020 local-like during the day. In 1983, I was chief engineer of a 500 watt daytimer in North Kingstown, RI; it could be heard in Harwich on Cape Cod during the day, and had a Portuguese-language show with a large audience SE Mass.

On behalf of my fellow morons ... I don't waste my hard-earned money on satellite (I can pick up satellite in some of my favorite restaurants and when I'm too close to someone's car and I'm FM-scanning and get some weird programming), and I only get Internet stations when I'm on my day job ... which essentially is not a good time to start searching for Internet stations. Then again, I'm 300 miles west of Philadelphia, so the 1340 I monitor is a Connellsville, PA, outlet that simulcasts a pair of FM stations that carry an ABC oldies format. (Not Scott Shannon's, the other one.)
OK, seriously, WHAT-1340's demise is an unfortunate event. Sadly, it is one more AM that once had purpose. In Pittsburgh, I'm beginning to think that is every station on that band.

And let's not forget "The Tick"-an imaginary LMA of WWV to Clear Channel: http://www.lownoiserecords.com/wwv_the_tick.html .
Maybe this could be WHAT's new format, or an English version of Cuba's Radio Reloj-think KYW with time ticks behind the anchors.
