** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT Saturday
Sept 28 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, as George McClintock notified at 0240:
``WTWW transmitter problems --- Glenn, The #1 transmitter was throwing
off the driver breaker. Found that the neutralizer plate was too close
to the boiler which has full plate voltage. This caused the
transmitter to only run 40 KW. We are now able to run 100 KW. However,
the studio lost power today due to the storm and was unable to feed
Brother Stair to WTWW. Power will return by Sunday. I am having to
take BRo. Stair directly off his website. This caused the #1 & 2
transmitters to be uncontrolable by remote control. So your program
cannot air tonight (Friday). I did run Stair on 9930 from transmitter
#2 today Friday). #2 transmitter had a set of its own problems. I am
activating a 2nd computer which should correct the problems. What a
mess this storm has created. George McClintock 9-27-2024``

preachtalk. KYFR Shenandoah IA normally dominates at night here with a
lobe aimed right at us; there are several sportstalkers but closest
with the mostest is KARN Little Rock AR. Its night pattern is supposed
to be a circle tangent to the SW. Radio-locator shows plenty signal

premier radio station which spawned KARK-TV ch 4 but not licensed
until 1957, now RF 32 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
