THE "X" BAND
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Ralph Brandi - ralph@xxxxxxx
I'm receiving a new X-band station on 1620, WJVA in South Bend,
Indiana. It's got oldies, and IDs most of the time as "WHLY,
Hollywood". On 11/6 at 3 am eastern, I heard an ID as "WHLY AM and
WJVA AM", into news, then at 3:03 "We're 1620 AM, 10000 watts in
stereo," into the songs "My Favorite Things" and "Strangers in the
Night".
This is with a Drake R8 and Kiwa MW Loop from Tinton Falls, NJ.

Apparently number #18 is on the air,1620 - WJVA South Bend IN.
***
John Rieger - johnjrieger@xxxxxxxxx
WJVA's first day was actually yesterday. Format is NS/MYL and "Radio
Hollywood" slogans are used. Dual "WHLY-WJVA" ids on the hour, so 1580
is WHLY while 1620 is WJVA. Frequent WHLY or Radio Hollywood ments.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Pat Martin - Seaside OR - mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx
Apparently there is an OC under mixing with KYIZ tonight here on the
Oregon Coast. At a guess, I would think it is Auburn, CA. So far no
audio noted, at 0745 UTC (Nov 9 / 98).
***
Patrick M. (Pat) Griffith - Federal Heights, CO - N0NNK@xxxxxxxxx
I've also been hearing an OC on 1620 here in the Denver area for
several days. It fades heavily but peaks at about S-7. By comparison
KXOL/1660 peaks about S-9 here.
Also the 1550/1690 // Radio Disney stations here in Denver have been OC
again this morning for at least the past 2 hours. Looks like full power
at +S-20 here.

written "WJNZ AM". (Lazarus-LA, 11/7/98)

addition, stations that have changed frequency since 1996 are
cross-referenced on the old frequency. The call letter index gives
call, frequency, city and state. The city index (listed by state, then
city) includes frequency, call and day/night power. The log has been
completely updated from the 1996 edition and carefully cross-checked by
IRCA members in Mexico and the US. This is an indispensable reference
for anyone who hears Mexican radio stations. Size is 8 1/2" x 11" and
three hole punched for easy binding (optional).
Prices: IRCA/NRC members - $7.00 (US/Canada/Mexico/seamail), $8.00
(rest of the Americas airmail), $8.50 (Europe/Asia airmail), $9.00
(Australia/New Zealand airmail). Non-members: add $2.00 to the above
prices. Make checks out to: Phil Bytheway.
