WQSY Stunting

It'll happen this weekend if they can scrape enough money together to pay someone to climb the tower to mount an STL.

Before I respond to all this, let me say if you know so much, why are you hiding behind a screenname? You only give bits and pieces and now have gone too far. The delay had nothing to do with that. The STA ended the day before we took over and I had to get the transmitter back on with something, thus the various stunts. I wasn't planning on having the station on until after mid November.

This is no scoop nor is it worthy of "you heard it here first" that the station is Sunny 99.9. We've been on the streets selling for a December debut for weeks. Delilah is even making a market visit on Saturday for us as Sunny 99.9. Read: http://www.premiereradio.com/news/view/224.html. We are currently on all five stations promoting Delilah's visit to Chef Audrey's Bistro this Saturday night at 6 for autographs, photos and a chance to sign our banner that she will take to the troops while on Operation Seasons Greetings. By the way, in over ten years at her old station, she never made a market visit here. Delilah is still strong in this area and has already produced dollars for Sunny 99.9. Not to toot my own horn, but I am proud of my eight years of being the guy on before Delilah. Now, I am the guy that brought her to Warner Robins and back to the market where she belongs.

Sunny 99.9 will make the full debut with our previously selected format, not a stunt, when the studio is completed. When we complete the tower and immediate wiring, you will hear Delilah on both Sunny and WNNG until we get the Sunny 99.9 studio complete. Ever order coax for a tower or use a part time engineer? You cannot always control those schedules.

It goes against our company policy for any staff member to discuss company business on a message board, but I've had enough of half truths and people grandstanding like they know it all. Other than Cecil, I am the only one that knows exactly what we are doing on our stations since I am the one makes the decision. So, if you have anything else to say, use your real name or talk to me directly at the station. I am on air every morning from 7a-9a on WNNG with Todd Wilson. Otherwise, the rest of you guys please continue with your thoughts and observations of the market, the station and etc. I've enjoyed reading them and welcome any of you to the station when everything is complete. Just let me know ahead of time and I'll make sure Todd doesn't make the coffee. (Mighty strong stuff)

I thank you for your understanding and hope to see you Saturday with my friend Delilah. For more technical info or history, I'll leave that to the jovial one.

And then...

I've had enough of half truths and people grandstanding like they know it all.

I'm a-thinkin' the lyrics from a pretty doggone good country-western-cowboy song that I've played many times on 'lectric radio, applies, "One more time, Ernest...Who's gonna cast the first stone? Why don't you leave that boy alone, and let him sing his song". (kudos to Waymore, Bocephus and E.T.)


For more technical info or history, I'll leave that to the jovial one.

Well, for Hank, it all began at a little 3,000 watt FM in a pecan orchard, over in the Valley. On his debut, there was a slight technical mishap. The flux capacitor became overloaded with excess flux (the technical term is "all fluxed-up"), which caused the catastrophic converter to reverse its polarity. As a direct result, the exciter's excitation was quadrupled, which conversely saturated the IPA. This chain-reaction caused an unbelievable level of intermodulimiting to be forced into the analog input of the D-A-P, resulting in a criss-cross of your mega-hermans and your kilo-hermans. AH HA, you say, realizing that all this allowed the rare and dreaded, but not fatal, inverse limited phantamorgasm effect, creating an RF blanket that spanned from 540 kHz to 109 mHz, covering some 50 square miles of the ether, worsened, of course, by the reflectability of the Kennely-Heavyside layer. In Middle Georgia, those few minutes will forever be referred to as...the day the music died!

"And now, as the sun sinks slowly over the tall pines of the mid-state, station W-C-E-H, Hawkinsville, Georgia, comes to the close of another broadcast day. W-C-E-H is owned and operated by the Tri-County Broadcasting Company, Incorporated, and serves the tri-county area from studios in Cochran, Eastman and Hawkinsville. W-C-E-H operates on an assigned frequency of six hundred ten kilocycles, with a licensed output power of five hundred watts. Transmission facilities for W-C-E-H are located one mile east of the Ocmulgee River, on the Eastman Highway. And now, this is Charlie Hill speaking...thanking you for listening, wishing you a restful night's sleep, and inviting you to join us tomorrow morning at six o'clock, when we'll Wake To Music...right here on Sixty-Onederful Radio, W-C-E-H. Ladies and Gentlemen...our National Anthem."
 
Hank:I actually carried the 99.9 signal from Douglas to Telmore Monday evening,with interference from Middleburg,Fl.Not bad for 6kw.Hank and Cecil are good folk,and I promise you that Cecil can scrape up the money for whatever is necessary.

WQSA has a great signal to the south, but a little weak to the north in part due to 100.1 Forsyth and 99.7 Atlanta. We are currently simulcasting WNNG until the studio work is finished. Delilah will start next week. It was nice to be in Eastman and hear the Northside/Lee County game.

Good to hear from you.

Still tryin' to get Lowell to actually "ship" the other Phantom?! Just joshin'... I've not a clue what's goin' on over on Watson Blvd.
 
:D Got a great deal on one, just not all the connectors needed. It should be on soon. And Delilah loves the area. She made mention to the friendly people all over Georgia. I wouldn't doubt that she comes back again.
