The new Kkdj

[DanielBoone]

Ya that's for sure, Comcast thinks that you have us now you don't need your Antenna, ya right, there are so many stations NOT on Cable or SAT/AT&T, like most of Cocola Broadcasting stations like Antenna TV, KKDJ 27.1, and many others, and also ABC 30 Classic Sit-Com channel 30.3 "LAFF"and many more.

I will NEVER go back to Comcast! Broadcast rules! I just wish Fox News was on broadcast, if that happened, I would be good as gold!

Either engineer1 really is that dumb.. or hes trying to cover up for the fact he really is Vern Chris Edwards White.

Engineer1 DOES kind of speak like the way the job adds for "The New KKDJ" were written on allaccess!

Technical Report
K259CF Modification To Non-adjacent Channel
Waiver of §74.1233(a)(1) Requested
An interference complaint has been lodged against the licensed
K259CF facility by 1st adjacent channel station KCIV, Mount Bullion, CA (FCC ID #6504
). This non-adjacent channel change is filed to resolve that complaint and
a waiver of §74.1233(a)(1) is requested to permit the change to channel 272 (102.3 mHz). I
f the Commission determines that a waiver will not be granted, it is requested that action on this application
be withheld until the Commission takes action on MB Docket No. 18-119 wherein the Commission has proposed to amend the rules to permit such non-a
djacent channel changes to resolve interference complaints. Since the Commission originally proposed the rule change and the comments were overwhelmingly supportive
it seems logical that this change will be adopted.
This technical report is submitted for a minor modification to K259CF, FCC file no. BLFT-20180306AAR. A non-adjacent move to channel 272 with
corresponding changes in antenna and ERP are submitted. The translator will continue to serve as a non fill-in facility to rebroadcast KYAF(FM) 234A at Firebaugh, CA,
FCC facility I.D. 9993. K259CF Modification Analysis:An overlap study (exhibit E-1) shows the K259CF modification to channel 272 is within the KHGE(FM) 274B and KLB
N(FM) 270B second adjacent protected contours. Using the vertical elevation pattern of the Nicom BKG88 four bay, 0.85 wavelength spaced antenna (exhibit E-2), the
+40 F(50-10) dBu contours within the protected Anderson Associates Broadcast Consultants contours are shown in exhibits E-3 and E-4. The +40 F(50-10) dBu contour within the
lower KLBN(FM) protected contour (exhibit E-4) lowest point = 3.5 meters above the site elevation which does not reach any buildings, roads or population, as shown in the
aerial photo and street view in exhibits E-5 and E-6. As a non fill-in translator, an HAAT calculation is included in exhibit E-7 and shows the highest of the 12 rad
ials is 56 meters using the 03 second USGS terrain data, At 75 watts ERP, the modification is below the maximum permitted ERP for a non-fill-in translator, following the rul
es provided in CFR §74.1235(b)(2).
A plot of the 60 dBu contour relative to the primary KYAF(FM) 60 dBu contour and overlap to the current K259CF 60 dBu contour is shown in exhibit E-8.
Antenna System:K259CF is located on the existing tower 34 meter tower at coordinates:
36 47 56N 119 47 24W NAD 27.
A TOWAIR determination (exhibit E-9) shows the tower does not require registration. A Nicom BKG88 four bay, 0.85 wavelength spaced nondirectional ant
enna will be mounted at a COR AGL of 30 meters, 126 meters AMSL and operate at 0.075 kW ERP.
RF Exposure Calculation:The RF contribution was calculated using the formula from the OET Bulletin 65:
S (RF in microwatts/cm2) = 33.4 x F2 x (H ERP + V ERP in watts) R2 (height of radiation center in meters -2m)
Using a worst case vertical (F) factor of 1.0, the RF is calculated to be 6.39 μW/cm2 to the ground, which is below 5% of the 200 μW/cm
2 maximum permissible for general public exposure allowing exclusion from consideration. Anderson Associates Broadcast Consultants
Conclusion:
It is concluded the K259CF modification complies with all Commission rules and policies.

Yes a change to 102.3 would help, my antenna gets KIOO at home instead even though they are a fringe signal, no going to make an opinion on who's better, in East Fresno east of 168, and Sunnyside there is so much Co-Channel interference driving, one day it went back and forth between Foreigner Cold as Ice on KKDJ and Head Games on KIOO Porterville LMFAO battle of Classic Rock.

Like Everyone on here said and I agree about their narrow format, Original KKDJ played a much more music line up, many genres, and I know who engineer one is.LMFAO

 

[brettbutlerisok]

I imagine 102.3 will work a lot better, too bad they won't retain any kioo listeners driving north on 41 anymore.

Just tuned in ar 8:40 PDT,who is the guy with Dean ?

Also some had a pm about my worst female comment,just to be clear those are IMO 3 of the worst female DJ’s I’ve ever worked or listen too,thankfully I never worked with those 3 but I’ve worked with some very talented ones,some of you on hear might remember Phyllis West,I worked with her at WIMZ.The late Sue Delaney was grrreat,Rose Ortega and Billie Wright are/were awesome and I could rattle off more from Knoxville and Roanoke that you’ve never heard of.

Wow great show from Dean this morning who is the guy with him he is great did you hear Steve Perry on live with Dean this morning no other valley station had that. This show this format is a winner blows away the other my hats off to Dean no other station can come close. Thank god he got the PD job the other ones on there did not make it work.

Ken it’s better than the pirate 93.3 out of your house or maybe garage, I know who you are to

 

[ExKynoJox]

So, Jeff Riedel is back? Flying Lizzards on my drive home was just too good. Bravo Dean and Jeff. You're killing it.

Next move should be to kill off any last signs of White's failed attempt to capitalize on KKDJ's legacy through the same boring music and rotation as found at the Fox.

I listened to some of that delivering, from 10 am to noon it was awesome, Dean, and Aunt Penny, and music they were playing back then.

So is Jeff Rydell back ?? I thought I heard a Jeff on the show

Yes, he is and this is great, now it's sounding like the early days of 106 KKDJ, musically also.

I heard the processing being messed with over the weekend. Didn't hear much cut-out from 99.7. Anybody listened this morning?

The streaming was a mess all day. As to the actual on-air, I couldn't tell the difference in the fifteen minutes I tried the over the air before flipping to the App.

Heard some trouble at around 10 AM this morning and cleared around 10:30, haven't heard much else since. I have a WiFi radio and it's telling me it's 64kbps mp3 CBR mono. Did some digging on the app and found 32kbps VBR AACV2+. Other stations use similar AACV2+ compression.

What were you hearing?

Yesterday and today listening around 10 AM it kept jumping around skipping forward and back and dead air spots, need to upgrade equipment and the change to 102.3 also, around the airport area driving Chestnut from Dakota and South from there, so much interference from KIOO.

Dean has been absent today (10/11),hope the powers that be have not screwed up a good thing and pissed him off. Yesterday up until about 4pm (when the technical stuff started)was some of the best radio I’ve heard in Fresno in years and now we are back to Athena and the same old retreads that the FOX plays. Anybody have info ? I’ve called the 851-KKDJ number this morning but just get Vernes recording,talked to Dean a few times yesterday and seemed happy. Without Dean there is no KKDJ,just shut it down

All,

The staff at KKDJ tell me Dean has come down with the flu. He attempted to do the program at 6AM (On the dot...) but did not have the energy to do the show, leaving the music programmed for his time-slot today. Dean is expected to return to doing the show on Monday, that is if he is feeling better...

Bummer of a day today. The guy who is producing the show could have filled in. As much as I want Dean’s effort to work, the station is so inconsistent it’s hard to get too excited. Wasn’t it Dean, who on day two made some mention of it might be better to go dark while trying to fix what is a mess?

Am loving the music of the new effort though...

Disneyland never really worked right on the first day. Took years to make it what it is today... Just saying, anything that is a "work in progress" can't be that bad. Right???

It took one song yesterday to make the entire day work for me. Radio for those who really understand music is like that.
