Re: [IRCA] WLYN 1360 & WAZN 1470



Didn't hurt to try Paul, and thanks for your dedication to the hobby. Business must be good for them to be unpleasant about it, particularly to someone in the business.

Next kick at the can, I wonder what a 30 second spot costs at 2am on a non-brokered station, particularly for a non-profit? A quickie IRCA information ad with Morse IDs? I sympathize with they sentiment that one shouldn't have to pay for a DX test, but it shouldn't come as news that stations don't owe DXers anything, and maybe some of us geezers (not Paul, I know) have a dime or two left at the end of the month.

best wishes,

I approached an WLYN 1360 & WAZN 1470 about a conducting a "DX Test" for us
DX'ers. They are a brokered/paid programming station so I was going to be
happy if I got 60 seconds of morse code at at the top of the hour at 2am in
the morning on this Metro Boston, MA area rimshot

The GM said no, so I did something I've never ever ever done before... I
offered to buy, out of my own pocket,  15 minutes of time on a one time
only deal at 1 or 2 in the morning....

The station still said no.. and wasn't terribly pleasant about it.
