PLEASE
CORRECT ANY ERRORS ... AND CONSIDER THIS THE ***ALMOST FINAL WORD*** ON TONIGHT’S
SCHEDULED BIG CHICAGO OFF-AIR EVENT

 

670 WSCR,
720 WGN and 780 WBBM, all in Chicago, are scheduled to go off-air this coming
Saturday morning (late tonight), from 2-5am CST.

 

A few
additional DX opportunities have been scheduled or will be otherwise available in
light of this:

 

Scott Fybush
reports he has confirmed with 670 KBOI in Boise ID that it will do some limited
testing during the Chicago silent period. KBOI will maintain regular programming
but will drop in Morse code IDs at about 1:08 MST (3:08 EST) and 1:38 MST (3:38
EST), using 50 kW ND ***ONLY*** during the code IDs. I strongly recommend
monitoring 670 a few minutes before and after each of these times. No QSL info
as of yet.

 

Paul Walker
reports KOTZ 720 Kotzebue Alaska will test for 30 minutes during the off-air
period. The test will consist of sweep tones, Morse code, sound effects and
other announcements and is scheduled for 0000-0030 LOCAL TIME. Kotzebue is rather
close to Russia. I have not yet determined its time zone. Alaska has several, I
believe.

 

QSL info for
KOTZ: Please include location, receiver, antennae as well as a log of what you
heard and when, and comments on signal quality. Chief Engineer Pierre Lonewolf
is particularly interested in the results from this skywave skip as KOTZ is evaluating
its signal, and a favor deserves a favour in return. Send a SASE with your report
to: 

Chief
Engineer Pierre Lonewolf
