Radio Station ID question for Ya'll
- Thread starter David67
- Start date
I read within a month or so ago that it might be KLBW New Boston, TX or KVDW England, Arkansas. Both are 2500 watts, daytime.
There are a few others, one possible source is: http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/finder?page=Y
Some people have commented that radio-locator is sometimes inaccurate on formats or slow to update formats on their listings...
Or you could try http://www.amlogbook.com/ Some bloggers say this one is more accurate and updated in a more timely fashion.

Whoever it was, either they were operating under the "experimental period" rules or they shouldn't have been on at all... Besides Cincinnati, the only stations on 1530 that are supposed to be running more than 15 watts at night are news/talk KFBK Sacramento; Spanish-language KGBT in the Rio Grande Valley; and a station in Puerto Rico.
NRC Log lists six religious stations on 1530 east of the Mississippi and another two west of the river. All of them daytimers.

Are you sure this wasn't the paid religious programming that WCKY tends to air in its overnight hours? Throughout the past twenty years (and likely further back) of talk, standards, oldies, progressive talk, and sports, the late night fire-and-brimstone preachers have been the one constant on 1530 out of Cincinnati.

I thought of that too with WCKY.

That means there was WCKY and another station interfering at the same time with WCKY! I have an idea that the normally steady WCKY was getting "rocked"
by the other station, in other words if your radio has a signal meter, it was swinging back and forth 'wildly'. The audio coming from the speaker of the radio probably had a 'snapping' sound each time the signals collided. I'm sure most DXers have experienced this phenomenon.

Just to be sure, I checked 1530 after I posted earlier this morning. I heard the overnight religious programming which was indeed interrupted at the top of the hour (3:00 am CDT) by the WCKY station ID. However, there was also an ESPN radio affiliate in the background, and unfortunately I didn't catch a station ID for that one. Anyway, I had thought WCKY was now a Fox Sports Radio affiliate and their sister station WSAI/1360 is the ESPN affiliate for Cincy.
