** U S A. 770, Sept 25 circa 0605 UT, can`t hear KKOB Albuquerque NM,
which has been easy since they had to go to 12.5 kW ND STA. Think I
was still hearing it last night. Something has changed. Yes:
"KKOB will commence operation under a low power (1 kW) STA imminently
while awaiting construction of new permanent facilities for 50 kW Day
5 kW Night operation at the antenna site of KTBL.
The remaining tower and other facilities at the licensed KKOB site
will be dismantled. The Santa Fe booster, call letters also KKOB, is
unaffected by this change."

Re: Radio License Holding CBC, LLC
KKOB(AM), Albuquerque, NM
Fac. ID No.: 11251
Special Temporary Authority
Dear Applicant:
This is in reference to the request filed September 3, 2025, on behalf
of Radio License Holding CBC, LLC ("RLH"). RLH requests special
temporary authority ("STA") to operate station KKOB(AM) from an
alternate site location with a temporary antenna.
In support of the request, RLH states that because of the imminent
dismantling of the remaining antenna tower at the licensed site of
KKOB(AM), the station is requesting an STA to relocate to a nearby FM
site.
Specifically, KKOB(AM) proposes to operate from a site located 21.4
kilometers (13.2 miles) from the licensed site with a daytime and
nighttime power of 1 kilowatt. The proposed site has an existing 196
foot tower which supports the FM transmitting antenna of KABQ-FM and
the auxiliary antennas of KABQ-FM, KYLZ-FM, and KBQI-FM. The antenna
tower will be fed with a single flared skirt wire. Based on a NEC4
calculation the inverse distance field will be approximately 197.75
mV/m/km for the 1 kilowatt operation.
STA requests which involve a change in transmitter site must include
four critical elements:
(1) Loss of the licensed site must be beyond the licensee's control;
(2) STA facilities must continue to provide service to the licensed
community;
(3) STA facilities must maintain, as closely as practicable, the
licensed service area without extending it;
(4) STA facilities cannot involve the construction of towers intended
for permanent use by the station requesting the STA.
Accordingly, the request for STA IS GRANTED AND 0000269423 IS
SUPERSEDED.
Station KKOB(AM) may operate with the following facilities:
Geographic coordinates: 35° 04´ 04.5˝ N, 106° 46´ 46.8˝ W (NAD 1983)
Frequency: 770 kHz
Hours of operation: Daytime and Nighttime
Operating power: 1 kilowatt (Daytime), 1 kilowatt (Nighttime)
Antenna type: 196 foot existing tower excited with a single flared
skirt wire
Antenna Efficiency: 197.75 mV/m/kW@1 km
It will be necessary to further reduce power or cease operation if
complaints of interference are received. KKOB(AM) must notify the
Commission when licensed operation is restored. KKOB(AM) must use
whatever means are necessary to protect workers and the public from
exposure to radio frequency radiation in excess of the Commission’s
exposure guidelines. See 47 CFR § 1.1310.
This authority expires on March 4, 2026.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2314)
** U S A. 1420, Sept 25 at 0610 UT, WOC ID, but an understation says
``98.7`` - Only corrrelation in the NRC AM Log among the 60 stations
on 1420 is KUJ Walla2 Washington, very unlikely. But WTFDA FM DB hits
a very likely one: ``K254CI relay of:KWBF-1420 98.7 LUBBOCK TX 0.099
kW 33-30-08 101-52-22 CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN WALK BY FAITH RADIO

While NRC AM Log shows its //FM on 98.3 but same call K254CI. Channel
254 is in fact 98.7, NOT 98.3! KWBF 1420 itslf is U1 500/140 watts
