[HCDX] Broadcast Band Update

> MORE ABOUT THE MYSTERIOUS 1500: Our Monterey-area buddy Jim Hilliker went 
> right to the horse's....mouth....to get info about the KIEV/1500 CP. This 
> is what the Feds had to say: >According to our records, the construction 
> permit for Station KIEV expired on April 25, 2002. The permittee requested 
> additional time to construct; the request was denied and the permittee 
> filed an application for review of that decision. The Application for 
> Review is still pending.< ...Thus, the FCC provides as clear an answer as 
> possible, reflecting an unclear situation. I say this, due to the fact that 
> the FCC website still has a detailed listing of the KIEV CP....which, I 
> swear, was not there a year ago. Of course, no sign of on-air activity, as 
> of yet.

> FORM 1090: So now So Cal has yet one more Sports station, XEPRS/1090, which 
> is targeting the San Diego market specifically. So what? -- Except, it sure 
> was good to hear the voice of an old friend, Wolfman Jack, during that 
> first weekend leading up to their recent debut. 1090 ran a tape loop that 
> weekend, mostly of Sports actualities, et al, but they did give a nod to 
> the heritage of the frequency, and it's most listened to resident, the 
> Wolf...who held court each weeknight at 10PM (right after Reverend Ike) on 
> what was then XERB/1090, circa 1965-1971.  Of course, some of us remember 
> hearing the wolf prior to the 1090 engagement, on XERF/1570, out of Ciudad 
> Acuna, Coahuila. Next time you find yourself there, jump across the Rio 
> Grande to Del Rio, Texas, and check out the new Museum dedicated to the 
> memory of Wolfman Jack.
