CONVENTION '9 J / WHITEFACE CHALET
SPECIAL REPORT:
(by Tom 6ryant, convention coordinator)
Fog, drizzle and downpours didn't dampen the spirits of the 20 TV and FM dxers who
made their way to the Lake Pladd, NY area for the club's annual get-together on August
4, 5, and 6. In view of the sweltering heat engulfing most of the U . S. and Canada, the
cooler climate at the convention site was a welcome relief. . .but most agreed we could
have managed quite nicely without all the rain .
There was disappointment that the planned dx-pedition to the summit of Whiteface
Mountain had to be scrubbed when the park service dosed the road due to heavy fog,
but the group managed to find plenty of other activities to fill the void . Our host Peter
George had a dx monitoring station set up for both FM and TV ...with FM reception
providing the most interesting results. No E-skip was noted on TV, but the FM crew
logged a couple of E-hoppers including WSM-FM (95.5) from Nashville. The Stereo
Probe 9 performed nicely, with many of the loggings a direct result of signals reflected
off Whiteface Mountain which was directly in front of our monitoring position .
During lulls in off-air monitoring, the VCR was kept busy playing videotapes of
several members' dx catches.
Following the Saturday evening banquet Peter George got the program underway
with a "VUD Quiz" which had been prepared by Matt Sittel . Moans, groans, and
grumbling accompanied the mind-boggling 20 questions. 'Einstein' Coniglio captured
first prize with 14 correct answers. Eight correct seemed to be the average.
After the quiz, a brief open forum fielded discussion of several areas of dub
business . For the first time in several years, the Board of Directors was represented at
the convention ; with three of the five members present. h was announced that in the
future, at least one member of the Board would attend each convention for the purpose
of getting input on dub affairs as well as to answer questions.
Appointment of Emest J . (Emie) Wesok~wski of Omaha as WTFDA's ANARC
representative was announced. His selection was based on many years of activity in
the hobby, his rapport with members of several dx dubs, and his willingness and ability
to represent the WTFDA as a goodwill ambassador at dxer conventions .
The need for a membership list was expressed, and steps are being taken to make
such information available. Lack of communication with HQ was a bone of contention
for some; and ft was pointed out that corrections have been (and are continuing to be)
made in that area .
Dr . Bruce Elving, editor/publisher of the "FM Atlas" and "FM Media" took the floor
to offer some observations on the current dx season . He touched on the benefits of
antenna phasing to increase loggings, and briefly discussed the availability of the
products and services he offers for dxers.
Any lingering doubts about the convention being moved from Boston to the Lake
Pladd area were quickly dispelled upon arrival at the upstate NY locale .
Jim Thomas was recognized for his interest in providing dub-related materials. He is
currently marketing WTFDA decals and plans to venture into other areas including
stationery and T-shirts .
The Whiteface Chalet was ideally suited to our group, and proprietors Madge and
Chuck Randa made everyone feel welcome. Their unique brand of hospitality, along
with the Cory atmosphere, added a distinctive 'homey touch to the affair.
The remainder of the evening was spent dxing, watching dx tapes, talking dx, and
enjoying the company of fellow dxers. WTFDA member Scott Fybush of Boston, a
producer at WBZ, supervised origination of a broadcast from Lake Pladd.
The Inn featured a large den-like room where several WTFDAers kwnged and
visited. The downstairs bar was the hot spot for talking dx (1 think the tales got taller as
the evenings progressed) ; and the adjacent room featured the monitoring setup. All
three areas were popular and used extensively .
By mid-day Sunday the crowd began to disperse . As good-byes +mere said, several
commented on the excellence of the Whfteface Chalet fadlities, and expressed interest
is a possible return . Peter George (perhaps still in a convention-altered state of mind)
even mentioned that he'd be interested in hosting again at the Inn.
Saturday and Sunday breakfast was served as part of the room package. Since your
reporter stayed up 'til the wee hours (and chose to sleep late), there is no report on that
aspect of the gathering other than to note that the menu looked qufte appetizing .
Here's who attended : (by state 8~ province) /L - Bill Edkberg, Neil Kazaross, Frank
Merrill, Marv Shults MA - Scott Fybush (8 fiancee), Peter George MN - Bruce (& Mrs.)
Elving NE- Emie Wesolowski NJ- Bill Burrows, Paul Mount NY- Greg Coniglio, Dave
(r3~ Mrs. Nieman), Fred Nordquist, Bob Seybold OH- George Greene ON- Phil
Gebhardt, Roger (& Mrs.) Gravelle, D. Bruce Hall TN - Tom Bryant TX-Joe Gragg.
Daytime activity on Saturday centered on sightseeing . In spite of a steady drizzle,
just about everyone headed out to take a look at the Olympic faclities. The winding
roads, mountain scenery, cascading streams, and quaint villages got rave reviews.
Some went into Lake Pladd to shop, and a few drove up to Plattsburgh to check out
studio and transmitter sites. Other side trips (before and after the convention) found
dub members exploring new territory throughout New England and into Duebec .

tf your name was not on the list, you missed one hedk of a good time at outstanding
convention site . Whether large or small, WTFDA gatherings are aNvays a lot of fun. If
you've never attended a convention you need to seriously consider a trip to our 1996
funfest (wherever it is). tf it's been a while since you've taken part in a dub get together,
how about getting re-acquainted next year?.

OTHER STUFF'
The two new stations in Nevada
have the same licensee .
These are
indeed licensed as full-power sta
tions, but I wouldn't expect big
signals!
Channel 24 at Albion, Nebraska
replaces KCAN-8, which is moving to
Lincoln .
24 will be a satellite of
KLAN .
Interestingly, the tower coordinates approved are _not those cf
the existing KCAN tower ; indeed,
they're over 60km northwest .
The new Windsor, Ontario station is owned by the CFPL/CKNX/CHWI
network and will probably relay
CHWI-16 .
Fox had invested in both WBRC6 and WVTM-13 in Birmingham ; it was
uncertain which would go Fox .
Fox
has now purchased WBRC outright, and
announced it will switch to Fox by
the time you read this, on September
1.
I presume WTTC-21 will go ABC,
but that hasn't yet been announced .
WNYC-TV has been sold to private interestes ; see Other Stuff .
KNLC is picking up the Fox Kids
Network, not carried by new Fox
affiliate KTVI-2 .
WAXA-40 had been a satellite
of WLOS-13 ; it's going independent
and becoming WFBC-TV .
Those calls
are currently used by an AM/FM radio
station in Greenville, and they were
the original calls of what's now
WYFF-9 .
WS1AU had been relaying coowned WKPT-19, an ABC affiliate .
According to Matt Sittel, it's now
relaying W30AP, a UPN affiliate in
Kingsport .
(W30AP is also owned by
WKPT)

Canadian authorities . have announced the receipt of two applications for new English-language sta
tions at Ottawa, Ontario . Technical
parameters aren't specified, though
I suspect the ones I show above are
correct .
(if you write them in your
Database, use a pencil!)
Both applicants seem to be proposing the
same technical facilities . One applicant proposed a full relay of
another (unspecified) station; another proposed a partial relay, and
some local programming .
The announcement doesn't say who the applicants are .
Other applications are being
solicited . Both in the U .S . and in
Canada, applicants for new TV sta
tions must show they have enough
financial resources to build and
operate the station . But in Canada,
they also have to show that the
market can generate enough adver
(Other Stuff, contd .)
using revenue to support not
only the new station, but all
(this reguexisting stations .
lation also used to be on the
books in the U .S . but was repealed several years ago)
the process of licensing and building a new station seems to go much
more quickly in Mexico than in the
U .S . . The language barrier, and the
lack of Mexican information in reliable references like the Factbook
don't help .
The wording of the announcement suggests it will be
very difficult for applicants to
maF;e this showing . Don't expect
any construction permits to be
issued here! It's also possible
a^.other applicant will propose
a different channel (UHF channels 14, 19, and 65 are open at
Cttawa) and the CRTC could (but
probably won't) grant two new
CPS .
Depending on the powers used,
I'm not sure that Guadalajara and
Vallarta are too close.
Meredith Corp . has purchased WOGX-51 Ocala .
It's too
early to tell, but with Meredith
already owning Fox affiliate
WCFL-35 in adjacent Orlando, one
might expect WOGX to become a
WC FL satellite .
FORUM
Danny+ Oglethorpe, Shreveport LA :
Danny has a few questions
He
about his Mexican loggings .
asks, "What do you do with call
letters that have no location?"
One station he saw, XHVIZ-3, has
also been reported seen by Pat
Dyer, but no city is listed for
this station .
Another question involves
two stations (or are there two?)
on channel 4 . He's seeing a "TV
4 Guadalajara" and a "4 Vallarta" .
At scarcely 160km
apart,
Danny suggests
these
cities are too close to both
have channel 4 stations .
And finally, he asks, which
state is XHBS-9 in? The Worldwide Radic-TV Handbook lists
both Sinaloa and Sonora .
I'm afraid Mexican information is rather lacking, except
in border areas .
As in Canada,
In the U .S ., two channel 4
stations must be separated by enough
distance to allow both stations to
us e. l00kW power, even if one or both
stations actually use much less than
100kW .
However, in Mexico and
Canada, station spacing seems to
reflect the actual power used . And,
it's not unusual for those countries
to license stations for less than
100 kW- such lower power licenses are
rare in the U .S .
So, if one or both of these two
Mexican stations is using relatively low power, they might be
licensed at this close spacing .
Danny also forwarded an article from the July 29 Shreveport
Times regarding his local channel
95 .
The station, built as KWLB by
a religious organization, has been
sold and will become a UPN affiliate .
Along with the programming
changes, comes a change in call
letters, to KSHV .
KSHV-95 will
continue to carry Shreveport Pirates football and Shreveport Captains baseball .
The article also indicates the
station will increase power ar.d
tower height in October .
Ernie Wesolowaki, Omaha NE . :
As you may remember, Ernie
suffered a near total wipeout of UHF
DX when new KXVO-15 signed on the
He wrote KXVO, KPTM-92, and
air .
KYNE-26 asking if there might be any
problems at the stations causing the
severe crossmodulation .
Ernie has
now received a reply from Nebraska
Educational Telecommunications Commission engineer William Ramsay .
Parts of Ramsay's letter are
important reading for any DXer in
an urban area considering adding a
high gain preamplifier .
"What you describe would appear to be a classic case of intermodulation products generated in
your hiyh gain UHF antenna preamplifier .
It is likely that the
strongest UHF signals, possibly our
channel 26 or channel 92 drive the
(Forum, Weslolwski, contd.)
preamplifier into a non-linear operating region and once this occurs,
sum and difference products of virtually any of the visual or aural carriers can be generated .
The arithmetic can be complex, but on a spectrum analyzer you would see a great
many spurius signals, some of which
fall in the channels you are trying
to see . . .
Such high gain UHF preamplifiers will only be able to produce
output levels of about 10 to 20 dBmv
before overloading ."
"Your description of the AM radio station intermodulation is accurate, but such mixing at the trans
mitter requires that the two carriers
be present at one or the other transmitter at a high enough levels to
generate intermodulation in the final
amplifier of the transmitter .
While
it may be possible that channels 15
and 92, sharing the same tower could
generate a transmitter intermodulation product, it is very unlikely due
to the substantial difference in frequency between the two channels and
the fact that UHF transmitters usually incorporate bandpass output filters that would prevent the undesired
signal from, reachign the amplifier in
the other transmitter where the intermodulation products could be generated ."
"At Nebraska ETV we receive
channel 26 in Lincoln for off-air
monitoring .
Since we also use high
gain UHF preamplifiers at our receive
antennas, it has been necessary to
add UHF single channel traps for both
channels 15 and 92 to provide a clean
monitoring signal for channels 26
from Omaha and 29 from Hastings . . .
. . . The only way to correct for this
type of intermodulation is to use
filters between the antenna and
preamplifier (emphasis Ramsay's) that
reduces the strength of the signals
causing the overload so that the
preamplifier can handle the weaker
signal you are trying to receive,
without distortion . Since the tuners
in most TV sets have very good overload characteristics, you may be better off using a higher gain UHF antenna without a preamplifier, if you
want to receive a wide variety of UHF
stations at substantially different
signal strengths ."
This is an excellent discussion
of intermod and spurious reception .
I know several other members have
experienced similar interference, as
I have myself in the past .
On a different subject,
advises both Omaha-area TBNs,
and K53EY, are now off .
Ernie
K95CQ
Hill Draeb, Kewaunee WI :
Bill has a bunch of area LPTV
information .
First, he observes
two new WGKI-33 (Fox) translators .
W61CG Sault Ste . Marie and W64CR
Pickford-Hessel (about 30mi . south
of W61CG) are both on the air .
Interestingly, W69CR doesn't appear in the FCC list as of August
3!
(which means I can't really
address Bill's observation that it
appears to be 20kHz off frequency)
Chances are, W64CR is licensed for
N (no) offset ; this relaxes the
frequency tolerance requirements
at the expense of greater distance
separation requirements . Or, judging from its absence from the FCC
database, it may not be licensed at
all!
W93AN (which is
IDing as
W93AE - but they're still in the
FCC list as W43AN) Iron Mountain is
still carrying WBAY-2 .
Which must
be confusing to the viewers of that
area- as WLUK-11's IDs include this
LPTV!
Bill has noted another Canadian station with an ID ir. the
vertical interval .
CJCH-9 Syndey,
NS has joined the CBAT staticr.s in
New Brunswick with this DX aid .
Bill also saw this ID on CJCB-TV-6
(ch . 3) Port Hawkesbury .
Bob Delaney-_Mount Vernon ZL :
On the same LPTV subject,
several new LPTVS have popped up in
the southern Illinois area .
K48ER
St . Louis is now on, with Three
Angels .
In Evansville, Indiana,
W67CB has appeared with All News
Channel and other programming parallel to W52AZ .
(one DXer asked on
the Internet whether this station
replaces W52AZ . No ; the towers are
separated by quite some distance,
and the stations cover different
parts of the city .)
Ed Phelps has
also seen W67CB, as have I .
Finally, a new W98BM is on ir.
Bowling Green, Kentucky with religion .
I have yet to see this one,
despite its relatively nearby location .
The terrain up that way is
rather hilly, and the full-power
Bowling Green stations don't do all
that well either .
Keith Short, Columbus 09 :
Keith is just one of a number
of correspondants to pass along
word of the end of a tradition .
After 47 years, WLWT-5 won't be
carrying the Cincinnati Reds in
1996 .
WLWT was the first TV sta
(Forum, Short, contd .)
tion to broadcast a night game, and
the first to air a game in color, and
except for a brief loss of rights to
WCPO-9 and a "war-time hiatus" (I
assume the Korean War), WLWT has carried the games since 1948 .
The Cincinnati Enquirer suggested three reasons for the end of
Reds telecasts on channel 5 :
The games were losing lots
of money- over $lmillion in
1995 .
WLWT had signed a new
affiliation contract with NBC .
In return for greater
compensation payments for
carraige of NBC programs, the
station is expected to avoid
pre-empting network programs
as much as possible .
The station was for sale .
(and indeed did sell three
days after the baseball
announcement) The paper
suggested potential new
owners would be scared off
by a large financial
committment to baseball .
Keith brings up another subject
that's been in the news quite a bit
lately . While most of the country is
looking at the news of the sale of
ABC to Disney, and of CBS to Westinghouse, in Ohio the news involves
smaller groups .
Multimedia owned WLWT-5 and Slls
of WKYC-3 Cleveland .
(NBC owns the
other 99° of WKYC)
They also have
three other stations- WBIR-10, WMAZAll five have been
13, and KSDK-5 .
sold to Gannett Co ., which owns 10
other TV stations .
For the most
part, there is no overlap in signal
coverage among the stations of these
two groups, though WMAZ-13 overlaps
with Gannett's WXIA-11 Atlanta .
The other notable sale was of
Outlet Communications, to NBC .
Outlet's Ohio operation is WCMH-9 Colum
bus .
Outlet's other two TV stations
are WJAR-10 Providence and WNCN-17
Goldsboro, NC .
Keith offers some observations about some of this news . .
Regarding NBC's reluctance to al
low WLWT to preempt prime-time for
sports, he says "It seems to me
that the networks are putting restriction clauses in their affiliation contracts concerning preempting network television shows
for sports programming .
I wonder
if this will affect college sports
programming such as SEC basketball
games on Wednesday and Saturday
nights? The independent and cable
sports networks (ESPN, KBL, etc .)
could well be the only stations
offersing sports coverage on non
network affiliated stations ."
To a considerable degree, I
think this is true . Though there's
a growing move towards LMAs in
television- Columbus's own WCMH
has one, with WWHO-53 . Such agreements give the controlling network
affiliate the opportunity to spin
off potentially profitable sports
to their unaffiliated LMA partner
without risking their own affiliation .
With regard
to the Gannett/Multimedia deal, Keith asks
whether they'll have to sell WLWT5 because of the common ownership
with the Cincinnati Enquirer .
TV
/ newspaper co-ownership is generally not allowed by the FCC, though
many combinations have been grandfathered in .
My immediate inclination is to suggest the Enquirer
would be sold instead; few cities
are supporting two newspapers, and
despite the relatively depressed
state of the broadcasting industry, I believe it's in better shape
than publishing .
Finally, a (very) brief excursion into the world of pay TV
for Columbus' W13BN.
After years
of HSC, the LPTV decided to offer
subscriptions to the History Channel, scrambled .
Apparently it
didn't work ; after only one week,
W13BN returned to HSC . .
DX ETC .
August has been slow .
Some
decent enhancements and a little
Hope
skip, but nothing exciting .
the tropo starts catching up soon!

VHF-UHF UTILITY DX
WEATHER - AIR - MARINE - PSB
BKLfAEJ°~Y-35LOQtTYIXJCDIdd-
177DYOY-L6Y~T7
Some PSB DX reports (some 300-mile plus tropo and Airband ES) and
Wx-Radio news have oome this way. .in time for a kxig-overdue column ~a
Move over WXJ-62 Nome!. . . VBU-996 Inwik, NWT has come on the air and
now claims title as the world's most northern Weather Radio station (and the first above
the Arctic Circle). It's 54 watts of power on 162.40 MHz serve the 3,200 residents of the
town of Inuvik .
Those who can, have, or wiA DX the Canadian "Weatheradio Canada" will
notice a number of changes recently . Most stations now broadcast a high-rate data twrst
lasting 2 - 5 seconds once a cycb . This date burst contains information to be detected
and/or printed by specalized "Weathercopy" receivers . Unfortunatey, the data mode is
not a slenderized one, and is a specialized non-standard Baud rate Packet-type signal .
DXers will not be able to decade the broadcasts using decoders such as the Universal
M-8000, etc. The receivers, costing around CdnS500, are used by various muniapal :mss, .
canpanies, and other users that require routine or specialized forecasts and wamihgs.
As well, data from stations such as VAD-320 Niagara are used to control large signs
along the lakeshores and other waterways giving up-io-date marine forecasts and
warnings electronically (sure beats the old "signals" flags used prior to 1989 to indicate
gale warnings, etc.) . A study is now underway to allocating unique frequencies to be
used for data transmissions only, leaving the standard wx channels for voice only (there
have been many complaints about the "kwd screeches" on the radio, hi). I have also
heard of the NWS in Washington testing with standard 1200 baud ASCII data
transmissions in the 163 MHz area .
Another major change on the Canadian stations is voice automation . Most
stations in the major centres are partially or fully automated . Your PSB editor is actually
in charge of the automation project for South-Central and Southwestern Ontario. This
system is not like the usual Elmer Fudd-type computer voice (like that used by the USCG
Portsmouth on HF). .but instead uses digitized samplings of human-spoken words and
phreses. .inGuding muRiple intonations depending on where a word or phrase falls
in a
sentence . It sounds not that bad, though there are a few small bugs still to be wortced
out. During severe weather, the human "DJs" take over . To hear a sample. .try tuning
into
Gander Volmet on HF (3485, 6604, 10051, 13270 kHz at 20 & 50 past) as this broadcast
uses the same system . I was taking to a forecaster at NWS Chicago the other day, and
he says that the NWS is also kooking into automation .
Now, some new station news (mostly from Canada, as the networkcontinues
to rapidly expand ; most wx offices will be Dosing within 3 years as wx-radio
broadcasts
become available in most areas for routine information, with 1-900 services from the
remaining regional wx centres for specialized information) . . .

Whether you were dxing in 1950, or just wish you'd been ; you'll enjoy these IDs.
There's nothing significant about this group other than the infamous I{LEE-tv
slide alleged to have been seen in England. Of the eight, only WHIO-TV, WTVR
(TV), end WGN-TV retain their original calls. [KNBH was NBC in Hollywood.]

Was just re-reading your notes about vertipllypolarized antennas as local-QRM re'ectors-and the
results are indeed interesting . I thin to some degrce
they re0ectthe severe terrain of the Bay Area .
Note that not all TV stations are horizontally
polarized! While those using linear polarization are
required to use horizontal, stations may voluntarily
ttse rircular polarization instead . If they choose to do
so, they may double their ERP (maintatnlnp the same
ERP in the horizontal lane as they'd have If th ey
weren't CP. It is possibPe to be licensed for a power in
the vertical plane less than your horizontal powerelliptiplpolarization-but in practice very Cew stations do this, probably fewer than five in the U .S.)
CP is supposed to improve reception on rabbit
ears & similar cheap antennas on sets near the
transmitter. By my experience, using such antennas
at sites within a mile of WISC-3 (not CP, though it
will be in a few weeks!) and WSMV-4 and WTVF-5
which have been CP for several years), I tan tell you
P works, and works very well! At least from the
station's, and the "sane" viewer's, paint of view.
A quick scan of the 1991 Factbook shows
KCRA and KCAL (L.A.) as the only two CP stations
in California . To be honest, I strongly suspect
several mare stations are now CP. In any case, that
may explain the roughly 4dB lower V(H ratio for
KCRA as compared to KTVU and KRON . I would
theorize the better V/H ratios for KPIX and KVIE
are due to tighter antenna patterns at the higher
frequencies. Maybe the most interesting factor is
that you're seeing nearly lOdB V/H ratio on a station
that's supposed to he transmitting a OdB ratio!
I usuall only DX TV when I'm tired of the
opening on ~. I'm sure I'd DX TV a lot more if 1
ever decided to mount my antenna outside.

A strange phenomenon has struck my closed
caption (cc) decoder-the captions have been known
to turn red, purple, green, or even BLUE! Also,
captions have turned up on Qromos such as for "Star
Jell Kruszka,7706 N . Jefferson Place Circle #M, Baton Trek : The Next Generation' , but not complete
sentences. I guess local stations don't pre about

Notes :
1 . Am I correct in assuming CBCP-3 is the satellite
station for CJFB-5?
2. The program heard here was "Palo Alto
Gateways" and they talked about Boulder Creek.
Palo Alto and Boulder Creek are in the S .F. Bay
Area . 1 called KRON-4, but they said it wasn't them .
3 . Not CKKX anymore?
4 . This station was due north and in French. CKPG?
CBUT?
Those small TV dipole antennas work wonders .
1 pn't tell You how manY stab ons I togged usinB t he
di po le that I didn't see o n the ch. 2-6 Yag i . July 19
here was a rear E-skiQ day, many TV stations logged
and many meter stations logged .
Shortest TV skip goes to KT VX-4 at 567,
Ion est to KSNW-3 at 1378. Many double-hoppers
on ~ meters to the east toast.
Thanks to Doug Smith for the 1995 USA TV
database ; it is very well done and will help me in
future DXing .

1've been a WTFDA member since 1980. I
moved from Winston-Salem NC to Galesburg (on
I-74 midway between Peoria and the Quad Cities) in
1988 . Reports from me have been rare because I
don't have the time or money to pursue TV-DX like
it should be.
Here's my DX so far, edited considerably (no
relogs under 290 km/180 miles) .

E-skip was discovered at midday on 7/19, where
not only local KTVI-2, but also local KMOV-4, was
propagating . 1 checked Channel 3, and sure enough,
there was DX in there! It was the first time this
season I saw KENW-3 (two acquaintances of mine,
Jason Batas and Matt Kerns, are news anchors there),
and another rece)ttion of XHY (this time, with a
telenovela, Spanish for "soap opera") .

1 fervently believe this world is in so much
turmoil & so screwed u because of all the computers disruptingpeople's was & causing more turmoil,
more lost productrvuy than gained since computers
invaded workplaces-maybe to Cuture years common
sense will prevail & these &'%#S%@# aTmputers
& this computer age will be phased out! ! !
Editor-wftholJt the aid of computers, 1 would trot
be able to put this column together . I can, however, remember my frustration wfth this Sanyo
MBC-550 computer and WordStar 3.3 back in
1983 . We'll see what Waft has to say in a yeacor
so, when he has overcome the teaming curve

This is my Grst year of any serious TV DXin .
Spend more time on FM or radio amateur 6 and
mfr DXing. July was much better than June, with
better than average tropo and almost normal E skip
conditions . Joplin is a good place to DX ch 2-6 with
no local area stations . Channel 3 from Springfield at
70 miles and channel 2 and 6 from Tulsa at 100 miles
do give me some problems. I may consider a vertical
Yagi for E skip.

is people like me getting new word-processor typcwrtters & trying to use them! 1 have one I bought
three months apo, & I'm still having a Lot of trouble
geuing used to It-it STILL takes me longer to type a
letter than using a plain old typewriter, 1 am very
sorry I got it because of all the rigamaroll I've had to
go through reading the 3(10Page manual & then
screaming cusswords when It does all kinds of tunny
thins & I have to try punching certain keys or go back
& read the manual some more .

Note : All receptions on July 10-11 on the 13" TV
with indoor antennas, except channels I1 & 6 from
Iowa . A big thrill for me, as I have never experienced
UHF TV reception beyond 62 miles before this!
Maybe one reason there are not more reporters

What a month! The 729-30 opening was every
bit as good as the Thanksgiving 1986 opening in my
opinion. Who knows how much further it would
have gof if the Rockies hadn't got in theway?
KTVD-20 and KDVR-31 were practicailysnowfree
at times.
LPTV/xltrs that are underlined without QTHs, I
am reasonably sure are new loggin~s. Havcwritten
to Fred McCormack and Doug Smtth for help on
these. Any help from members on these or tfie other
unlDs will be greatly appreciated . Any station not
eventually IDed will be deleted.
According to Fred, the LP7-Vsseen on 6118 on
chs ]9,335,45,47,49,53,55,57,59, and 61 were from
Iowa Falls.

Notes:
1. "Monterrey 27°" supered throughout much o[
morning show.
2. Called WCVB, and they verified what I saw. Local
rogram, "Chronicle," with famous WCVB logo .
~. Trope from Little Rock 2 and 4 ruined everything
on those channels . Fs was not quite as strong as
Arkansas .
Afew of my distances have been recalculated
due to a previous error. Iam also using only one
atlas (Rand McNally), rather than whatever was
handy.
I've decided to delete as much trope from my
reports as I can. Anything under 250 miles is not
generally very interesting from here unless it is new
or low-power. With the rotor, DalIaslFt . Worth,
Houston, Little Rock, Jackson, and such places are
fairly easy Latches; in other words, not newsworthy.

Note 1: The antenna was aimed southwest, with the
rear to WWAY. At first I thought this was a signal
from Mexico as Mexico was strong at the time.
Floating on KTBS .
1 have been blessed with flexible hours and
much FS! The Es is not
plentiful as last year, and
34
as
the MUF is generally lower, with shorter openings
above channel 2. However, 1 never expecteT7 this
season to be very productive . Much to my surprise,
I've seen most of thestations I saw last year-and
then some.

The Es on July 18 and 19 was some of the
strongest and strangest I've ever seen . It lasted all
day on the 19th, with openings from two directions
wmmon on both days. The NE-SD-ND openings
(1445 and 2310 UTC) were both fast-moving and
Intense. There were many more unlDs than listed
above. In addition, channel 2 was hash for much of
the day. IC the all-day opening had been one day
earlier or later, I wouldn't have been able to stay with
it!

Comments :
Like the first day of July, the last onewas
heavily loaded with Es here on the FM band (though
only aprox 5-6 hrs this last time!) The heavy amount
during the month really reminds one a lot of the 1986
season. We'II have to see i[August will be just as
active now. The number of Ch 6 ID's on Jul 19th
ought to give a hint how wild that one was as well . I
sometimes glance at the TV at the right time even
when the FM is crammed full of Es!

The days of 100+F temps produced Lopious
amounts of in-state trope with only a lithe "spill" into
Louisiana .

With the lack of TV stations runningTP's with
ID's in the prime meteor scatter time it sure isn't the
preductive adventure that it used to be. It's also so
hard to End a really quiet FM channel anymore, and
the Au~ust in-state trope is usually enhanced for this
shower . Il becomes a case o[ aiming the FM antenna
to minimize the Houston/Dallas stuff as anything
closer (i.e., Austin) is not likely ever to be Levered by
an ms burst long enough to deduce an ID Cram .

dote ii-The strangest DX experience ever .From 7 to 9 as received only weak signal,a full
colorbar with no logo ~ld no audio .5hortly after 9, a film starting rnth o man
pasting sigls on a wall,looked like a cheezy video done in the studio ; cut to a
747 in flight for 1 minute ; cut to well produced camfercial of beautiful people
dining at posh eatery, interspersed with sore persons dwlging in o locker room
and featuring o raked man!All the while with audio of WFAE 90 .7 FM to Charlotte
and A . N . Jau!At 9 :06 back to grog scale TP then off again .At 9 :15 o distorted
picture with terrible audio sounds (tike a jackharrtrer)as if the X-miller was
acting tQ,gone for good after two minutes of this . Except for the nudity, it is
similar to the HDTV tests WRC-4 did a while back on charnel 38 in Washington

Comments : tt's good to be bade in the WTFDA! I was a member in the early '80s bul school,
career, moving around (bet my logs!), etc. took me away from °organized' TV DX for a number
of years . We have had some really good skip this summer and it's prompted me to begin
keeping bgs again. XYL, who finds this hobby too'abstrad' for her tastes, and I have travel
plans and Mher uDOmmttments here this summer, so 1 wasnt able to make Lake Placid . Nex[
year I hope. A tip for those who have CompuServe: you can use BaFile to search for names of
businesses you hear in local ads. You can search on the basis of likely target area (city and/or
state) w entire US/C.anada . If you hear two or three different names and they all have addresses
in the same dtY or area, this ID is 99% as valuable as a straight call letter ID . Another rbnipuler
tip: PC Gbbe has a utility fw calculating great drde distances based on latitudelbngitude. I
used tt here when: I had exact coordinates. Very helpful . I collect TY Guides; anyone who
wards to swap (mine is Washirpfon-Baltimore) can corrtad me via l.onlpuServe/Intemet.

Comments : Apdogies to the editor for this rather large and somewhat dated report. 191 keep the
remarks short. Overall the '95 Es season was above average. July 1 was one of the hottest
openings in several years. In addition to the tv listings above, both Jamaica and Bahamas FM's were
logged that day as well as an FM from Flagstaff, AZ; for a new state. Best surprises were CKLT-1
(3) NB (new province] on 7/17, and 'most wanted' KREZ-tv ((S) from Durango, CO on 7/19. KREZ is
now operated by KROE (13) in Albuquerque and carries a portion of the 'Q-13" newscast . . .inserting
'Z-6" area news from Durango. This little guy only runs 6.1 kw visual erg! Massive Tr openings on
7/10 and 7/12 were also rewarding. NOTE: KT VS (3) in Sterling, CO is now promoting itself as "THE

: 3 months from postmnrk
st, as evidenced by this huge column . A wide range of skip in
Conditions really picked up in July and early
with some excellent openings . July 22 was
AugJly,
especially unusual-a widespread Maritimes opening for many in
the Northeast US and Eastern Canada . Trops were also excellent, with some super paths reported around July 30August 1 . Great to see so many new faces lately, thanks to everyone who reports! On with the DX . . .

FM, long sought after.
Goad DX in July made up for a slow June. My sophomore year at UNL is fast approaching, and I may be making my
home in Lincoln durng upcoming summers as well . According to WTFDA'rules' for FM slats, loggings in Lincoln
wouldn't count on my Omaha totals . By the way, I now stand at 1581 heard over about 4 years of FM DXing.
Working much mae and having to commute (1/2 hour drive, not too bad) cut down on DX time more than ever this
year. Anyway, that's all for now. 73's . ICongrats on the great totals . Hope the Znd year at UNL goes well, and
you st ill have at least same time left over for DX-I know lately how that feels too, hi-gc)

SEPTEMBER 1995
/O~
Hello again. Once again we have moved. (5 times in the last 8 years!) Now we live in Phoenixville . DX
to the north is not as good here as it was in Pottstown. We're not on a hill, nor are we in a valley, so DX
is good but not great. The super New England tropo on June 28-29 was so intense that when local TV
ch 12 went offthe airforthenight, ch.12 in Providence was in crystal clearon the local cable service! Skip
has been below average here this year, but that may be in part to me not checking as much as I should .
(No, most people seem to agreewith that opinionof this year, atthough it picked up in July a bit-gc). Talk
to you later, Dan O.

1995 hasn't been the greatest of seasons but things got going in July and I must say with more variety than
1994 . We didn't have any Northern openings last year . My problems with the cable wire in front of the house
have started uP again as of yesterday, July 28th, this after a glorious 2 or 3 months of absoultely no sign of
any cable radiation . Now I have slop on my VHF channels, as well as on FM . Once again, I have WDAC 94 .5,
WMBT 1530 AM on 103.7, Allerttown on 104.1, Philly on 104.5, andnumerous other annoying things, all courtesy
of my cable company. 1 live 5 feet from an apartment building with 3 brand new neighbors, so I wouldn't be
surprised if one of them is trying to get signal illegally. I can only hope it will again dissappear . It was nice
having a clean 104.5 while it lasted No real trops yet, but I guess this hot, humid, miserable weather will have
to get out of here first.

skip as '94, I was satisfied with the results .
I do feel this years skip was more diversified
and perhaps more interesting .
The next nret ta¢ether here will be November 4th

Hi, this is my first report to Northern FM-DX. I've been a avid WFTDA member for over 10 years. In all these
years I've been depending upon rabbit ears and a GE Super radio. Since then I recently added a rooftop antenna
and rotor and a better receiver to enhance my FM DX hobby and it sure is a big improvement . Finally after all
these years I am finally reporting my FM loggings publicly! Being this my first, some of the loggings may be
irregular. Thou I won't know that till I get used to my new antenna system. But most of the stations reported
are over 100 miles away . I live 12 miles from Milwaukee, WI and pretty much know what goes on in the local
FM scene. WEZW 103.7 is planning to change calls to WAMG, they call themselves "New Magic 103.7". On
Sept.1, a new station is expected on the air as WFMI-FM,106.9 broadcasting from the same tower as WFMR
98.3 in Menomonee Falls. I suspect thou that WFMI will be licensed to &ookfield, a suburb west of Milwaukee.
They plan on an all Jazz format . 73s, John Lentz
(Welcome to the column, John! Glad to see you report, looks greatl Good to see that the new setup is
working out for you. We hope to hear from you soon!-gc)

qvery brieftape loop identifies as the Huronia Tourism Association and says an interactive tourism
information system can be reached by telephone at (705) 835-5438, or Pound-ONT for cellular
telephones . No calls heard but looking into this . Lots of July Es, and two rare SuperTropo openings
ro the east coast. Makes up for a rather bland May-June. The rarely-heard Canadian Maritimes Es
was particularly welcome, though signals weren't too strong. Interesting to get FL at same time, and
to hear at !east one New Englander had a wide range as well, from n.w . ON and MB to NF, plus
AL and LA . Very interesting pariern. I'm looking forward to learning more about other catches that
day. - 73s, Saul

It didn't turn outto be a bad season after all, despite the dismal start in May 8 June. A nice variety of skip
in July and eary August made up for that. I was away out in the U.S . Southwest and the Colorado Rockies
for the last half of Juy. Some really beautiful country out there! DX in the mountains was terrible ; hardy
anything ever heard outskle of the bcals. The air is too dry, I guess, not to mention the terrain, hi . Heard
some skip from New Mexico, and an excellent trop opening from Kansas, though, details of which to be
sent to Danrry Burnin. Sounds like I missed some great DX back east, namely the Juy 22 Maritime opening,
and the Juy 30-31 super trop . Things have been actve to the southeast here in August, perhaps partialy
due to the active tropical season this year. A couple of notes. . .ttlank you very much to Peter George for
a GREAT convention at Lake Placid . I realy enjoyed myself there, and d was great seeing everybody again!
Hope we all can make it next year as well . Thanks, Pete! Also, pay special attention to Mutt's MAILBOX
column this month. TheWTFDAsurvey initiaty was to be published in the August VUD, hence the October
1st deadline. That deadline may have been moved further up to give you more time to finish it and mail
it in . Check MAILBOX and FROM THE STAFF for details. Be sure to fill it out and let us know what you
think about the club! 73, Greg

I found the Tulsa tr opening as I was driving near my street and found KNYD 90
.5
blasting thru the 94 Ranger's radio. Drove home and fired up the tuner, lately, I
tried out a Terk "Pi" small dish amplified antenna, found it no good for even mediumstrength semi-local reception, returned it to Crutchfield and got my refund .
Crutchfield
seems to be a good stereo equligrent catalog firm to deal with, but they do no carry
integated amps or separate tuners . (They more like specialize in car stereo . DB)
On the dogrtia that lower frequencies require larger antennas for best
performance,
our AM BCB DXing brethern overturned this dogma years ago. For decades AM DXers
used
strictly 100 foot or longer straight wires until the late 1960s when NRC manber
Cordon
Nelson invented a square loop just 40 inches or so per side with transistor amp that
rivaled the 100 ft . wires in signal pickup and gave a tight figure-8 directional
pattern
to boot . A few years later smaller ferrite-rods just a foot long with
RF amps became
most AM HCM DXers' signal catchers .
Charles Kettering invented cash register motors and auto starters replacing
the bad
hand cranks in spite of scientists and experts telling him it could not be done by the
laws of electricity . I hope this spurs one or more techincal experts among us to
invent
a good tiny antenna--they are needed, as I noticed a trerxl when I
moved out here last
year : Restrictions/prohibitions against outdoor antenna and large dishes seen to be
the rule in subdivisions and towns that are otherwise highly desirable, crime-free
places
to live . My subdivision of Innsbrook bans dishes over 18" plus any
outdoor antenna
Visible from a neighbor's house or deened as obnoxious-looking fron the street by the
trustees . Luckily, the thick trees on the average 2 acre lot hide a good many
antenns.
My next door neighbor's place is up for sale, hope the new owner
is tolerant! Now my
TV Ya4i on the porch deck is hidden by foliage, but when the leaves fall >n
Oct/Nov.
I may have to take the TV yogi down until May, if my new
neighbor turns out to be
intolerant . 73 .

July
ES got started with a bang! The 7/1 Es is the best skip day ever for me . Signals
and MUF were rock solid. Wish I had checked TV ch 7 8 up for possible t+AlFS there but
couldn't leave the FM . The long duration of the opening allowed for adding many needed
fran normally camnn skip areas, but Oklahana is sanewhat rare . (Alabama is rare with me
in Oklahana after 21 years of trying . 24 logged with 8 via Es . *-_t new one logged was
on 8-1-82 . DB) The only add areas heard an 7/1 was the Ohio and DC stations peeking in
ever so briefly. Hopefully, everyone DXed on July 1st.

First E-skip opening of the season made it into FL and southeastern Mexico, but only
made it as high as channel 6 .
However, trope made up for it on June 8, with three new
stations logged .
Was a bit surprised to receive KMXL 96 .1 at equal level with WDZQ,
TV stations from SW MJ and SE KS were in at the same time, with Jefferson CXity TV
stations in like locals!
100 degree heat also brought in four straight nights of trope,
into Kansas City and Topeka an July 10 (also received TV DX fran Tulsa, Oklahonma City
and Little Rock, Dlashville, SW Indiana, Western Kentucky, southern Illinois and SE
Missouri on the 11th and 12th, and into Iowa and Wisconsin on the 13th.
TV DX on the
last night was a mess, only pulling out the Quad Cities on channels 6 and '8, 73 and
good DX fran h1GtIIH

~TI-1>~7 FM DX
SEP'III~F12 1995
Notes:
recent
SFMDX
report, Keith Pugh indicated that the Reynosa station on 93 .1 may have changed calls to XHCPO . I
1 . In his
heart) no calls during this logging, only ads for Reynosa and a "93 .1 Super Strong" slogan.
2, Be careful with this station, which rebroadcasts KSBJ-89 .3 Humble TX . A local amouncer gave a call ID, then switched the
feed back W KSBJ, which also gave call IDs (at stronger volume) . It took several reviews of the tape to establish the difference
between the two calls, and to verily that I was hearing one station, not two .
An additional note regarding unIDs: I only log stations from which I hear either I) a clear call ID or 2) a combination of a
distinctive slogan and specific references to location . The identity of some of the stations noted as unidentified above may be
obvious to others, but I regard them as unconfirmed until I can verify that the station in question actually uses the slogan that I
heard . The information provided by other DXers via e-mail and letters (thanks to John Combs and George Rogers, among
others), as well as the FM DX reports in VUD and Greg Coniglio's column, have been very valuable in clearing up a number of
these unlDs . Any additional help would be greatly appreciated .

PUBLISHER'S NOTES :
OOOPS! . . .We've had to hold a SOUTHERN FM DX report from John Jefferson, and a planned continuation of
ANTENNANOTES, until the next issue . We're just about out of space for this month, and want to be able to fit
the Membership Survey Form insert into this edition, which has turned out to be a real record-setter: the largest
September VUD in club history! That's really something, when you consider that all the columns expected to
appear had not arrived as of this month's deadline .
SEND IT IN! . . .Speaking of the Membership Survey, please take a few minutes to remove it from this issue and
send it to: Matthew C. Sittel - Bear Creek Lane, Apt A-4 - Asheville NC 28806. We need to hear from you now,
even if you never report to the VUD. The results of this survey will tell us what you want to see in the VHF-UHF
DIGEST, provide us with better data on the demographics of WTFDA . WHAT are you waiting for? Fill it out
and send it to Matt!
JUNKED MAIL?. ..If you have rxeived a damaged VUD recently, or just "part" of a VUD, you're not alone . This
happens sometimes, and it scems to happen more often in summer months, probably due to the humidity effect on
automated postal sorting equipment. Never fear. . .we keep a few extra copies on hand for several weeks after each
mailing, set aside to replace any that may go astray. If you have failedto receive an expected VUD issue, or if one
arrives damaged, just drop us a line and we'll do our best to replace it for you . We do not, however, currently
have back issues for sale, as the demand isn't quite there to support printing many extras, and we do also have
commitments to ship samples to people requesting info on WT7=DA, and to some hamfests and DX club
conventions .
MANY THANKS to Greg Coniglio, Robert "apologies to Mike Judge" Twomey, The General Instrument
Corporation , RF Systems Division, and Tom Bryant for providing recent VUD cover material .
