[BC] WLW--when it was 500 kW

[Paul Smith W4KNX]

Believe it or not, we are related... We share a common scoundrel of a
relative a few generations back...LOL... I've met him and have several of
his mugs, tshirts and other giveaways. I was in radio in Ann Arbor back in
the late 60's and I get asked occasionally if I'm him...  I used to be able
to get WJR here in the winter all the time till the mid 80's when clear
channel stations lost a lot of their protection and a 760 popped up here in
Tampa. Sometimes WJR overpowers them at night and I can listen here in
FLorida.  Thats one of the problems with being in a corner of the country.
Florida has a lot of secondary stations with nite authorization on clear
channel freq's.

Paul--
RE: WWJ and WXYT:

Look at their patterns--both 50 kw stations now with all the power aimed
north.

And while you are up in Cheyboygan you can also listen to your 40th cousin
5 times removed, Paul W. Smith, on WJR.
Used to work with that Paul at WSPD many centuries ago.
