Ol' Vern's pumped UP!

[mofocat]

Makin' it to Sunnyside on his new 10 speed! But gettin' a lil choppy by that local 1st adjacent. Why not just move down a bit to next channel. Interference is NOT cool.

 

[kenrayc]

I don't hear him on his usual 2 frequencies, is he somewhere else?

 

[mofocat]

Just 200kHz below KFCF, 87.9. Here in Sunnyside it's only his "KYA" that's gettin chopped up by the much stronger KFCF. But, in Clovis, near his antenna, probably for a couple miles around, I would guess, KFCF is gettin chopped up a bit. He should stick to 95.3.

 

[kenrayc]

Now I hear Vern in Clovis on 87.9, no interference from KFCF.

BUT, interference TO KFCF??

Vern's back off now, but I did check KFCF last night and there was no interference, but I bet with-in a half mile there probably was, it would make more since to use 87.7.

 

[radiotwit]

Mr White should immediately cease and desist from any interfering activites to KFCF.
Unless he would like to help with our national debt with a multi-thousand dollar NAL from the FCC.

Thank you,

[/quote]When I made that check at 3AM on that Sunday morning I was using an Antenna that has FM and TV (so I can also Watch those sub Channels that Gary Cacola has like Me-tv,Antenna tv 43.5 and 43.6 that are not on Cable) and its pointed towards Meadow lakes, so it favored KFCF, interesting thing when I tuned in to KFCF they were running 60s music with a rare Bob Dylan song.

Back when Vern used 94.7 it did interfere with KBOS in the North/West area of Clovis, but at 3am I wasn't about to drive and find out if it interfered with KFCF.

Withers, so are you going to do something about this or not? I thought you guys were for freedom of speech?

 

[radiotwit]

Freedom of Speech is important, but it doesn't mean you have a right to scream fire in a crowded theatre. Or Libel and Slander, or SLAPP suits. There are legal means Mr. White can pursue, like buying stations, or leasing airtime or setting up a web stream legally. Interfering by using an illegal transmitter on the air that exceeds licensed power is not the answer.

I am working on resolving the problem.

Thank you.

Does that mean that old Verne will be moving back to 94.7 or 95.3 ????

Well he can use 95.3 until the owners of KBHH 95.3, a class A station in Kerman, with original TL located on Whitebridges near Madera Ave. can figure out what there going to do.

 

[mofocat]

Seems to me that 92.5, 93.3, 95.3, 98.3, 98.5 or 100.7 would make the most sense. Those al least have clear adjacent channels, if not 2nd adjacents.

OR, thinking out of the box, maybe hiding under an out of market signal might provide some cover for some short-range coverage. i.e. 102.3, 106.7 in North Fresno/Clovis. ?? Yes, range would be very limited, but would not be interfering with a LOCAL market station. Would the bigger (out of market) occupant signal provide cover from detection outside of the closest proximity?
just-a-wonderin'

 

[MisterGort]

I have a great idea !!! Maybe old Vern should NOT be "bootlegging" on any radio channel ??? Or even better yet -- Vern should buy KMAK from that boob -- Richard Smith.

All of those frequency could work, except 106.7, KJUG officially not a Fresno station, may have a problem with that considering that they have a clean signal (line of sight) and having a long history in the valley for 40 years with their Country format, at one point they were the only FM country station for Fresno/Clovis.

 

[kenrayc]

I was wondering if Vern actual station in Firebaugh at 94.7 is running when he is using the pirate signal in Clovis, can anybody hear that signal in that area?

 

[kenrayc]

No "Legend of rock and roll" this weekend, Vern can't you try to get 87.7 as a LP legally, that frequency is used a low power in many areas now that the low VHF band (Channel 6) is not used for TV anymore, and legally or illegally doesn't interfere with any local or fringe stations, another option, try to LMA 95.3 in Kerman, or like mention before,KMAK 100.3.

 

[RadioStarOne]

You can get K-Love on 87.7 all around the Salinas area! Solid signal too for miles and miles! Since when did they get this signal?

Maybe a year ago now, I think. It's 600 watts on Loma Prieta, IIRC. The frequency is so vacant that it covers into the Sierras.

He's pumped on 94.7 today. Been all around Riverpark and the Dominion today and pretty decent signal. I guess KBOS will follow KFCF's lead and alert the FCC?
