...and how it was resolved!
Back in January I complained about some really bad intermod and mixing
caused by KOWB 1290 and KHAT 1210. KOWB 1290 is owned by Townsquare and is 5KW Non D days, 1kw DA nights from
about 1.6 miles away from me. KHAT is 1/4 mile away from them, owned by
Appaloosa Broadcasting with 10kw Days Non D and 1kw Night DA. I Was getting a really loud, nasty crunchy sounding KHAT on 1370 along with
some some mixing of the two in general in a few other spots on the radio
along with some crackly sounds on the dial. This occurred on my Icom Radio
and big loop antenna at home but also some car radios further north and
away from the tower site. Thanks to some educated help from a certain local broadcast engineer we
were able to reasonably determine it was KOWB causing the issue and it
wasn't just my radio. I emailed their regional engineering manager who said he'd look into it
when he was at the station later that month. I didn't hear back from him. Well, when KOWB's transmitter room got flooded from a burst pipe the
problem went away completely. With them back on but at only 1kw on 1290,
the problem has largely still disappeared I followed up with the engineer today and he said hes been trying to tune
out the problem and was working on it before the transmitter got ruined. He says if he can't tune it out, Townsquare will have to purchase a filter.
HE says in this case it was simply KHAT's signal getting into KOWB's
transmitter and re-radting from one of their towers

Hi All,
Just in case anyone had forgotten, Welle 370 has just started its 100kW
broadcast from Yerevan on 6080 kHz at 1900 UTC. A mixture of German and
some English. A slight hum in the background and some QSB here in north
wets England, but not a bad signal.
Alan.
