FM DX to Enid OK

[WG Hauser]

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Sept 29 circa 2030 UT, still dead air in $tereo
into caradio from KOCD Okeene. Along a busy rush-hour artery street,
also found dead air on 87.9 and 93.1, the latter at least also in
$tereo; obviously unfed hungry RF feeders in vehicles (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Oct 11 circa 2010 UT on caradio, still $tereo
deadair in Spanish from KOCD Okeene. Radio Salvación forgot to turn it
off in January. Still paying the fluid bill? (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Oct 16 at 1955 UT, NO open carrier signal, no $
icon, so KOCD Okeene is finally turned off - but who knows whether
permanently this time (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.7, Oct 20 at 1850 UT, KXLS Lahoma/Enid is OFF! Instead
on caradio, weak gospel huxter; at 1853 overridden by KKAJ ID, like a
meteor burst; or airplane scatter, in & out. 2000 local still off and
Bott Radio Network singing ID; by 2007 I find it running about 1
second behind 800 KQCV. This all correlates with WTFDA DB:
K239BT KQCV-800 95.7 THE VILLAGE OK RELIGIOUS TEACHING BOTT RADIO
NETWORK 0.25 0.25 211.0 0.0 35-33-26 97-28-31 D2ED
KXLS 95.7 LAHOMA OK ADULT CONTEMPORARY MY 95.7 14.0 14.0 137.0 137.0
36-32-13 98-00-39 4DEC Adult Hits
KKAJ-FM 95.7 DAVIS OK COUNTRY TEXOMA COUNTRY 50.0 50.0 140.0 140.0
34-23-50 96-55-17 2A71 KKAJ Texoma Country 95.7 Country

The Village is a NW OKC suburb, where I dwelt 1954-1961y; unnecessary
translator. I`d think KXLS might QRM it. Davis is way south in OK, 221
km = 137 miles from Enid.

ALSO OFF, sibling station of KXLS, at exactly same transmitter site:
KNID 107.1 NORTH ENID OK COUNTRY 107.1 KNID 14.0 14.0 137.0 137.0
36-32-13 98-00-39 3327 KNID Country Title & Artist
But two other siblings on 97.7 & 106.3, at separate sites, are not
off. Nothing else heard on 107.1 but I see Bott has another overkill
OKC translator there, El Reno. Something unID on 107.3; several
possibilities around OK and KS. Both 95.7 and 107.1 are back on by
next check circa 2200 UT (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A. After DTV tropo DX from The Metroplex, as in last report, I
switch to FM DX into the garaged caradio, 2004 Nissan stock, no RDS,
fender vertical antenna only, Nov 7 from 1825, including some non-DX
notes about calls and slogans; with listings from WTFDA FMDB; numbers
before lat. and long. are kW ERP, same H&V u.o.s. in one case; and
meters height above average terrain. Distances approx., city-to-city
from-to, not site-to-sites, added to end of each item in km/stmi; all
times strictly UT:

90.9 at 1825, gospel rock not // 91.1 in talk, but soon Air One ID on
90.9 and later back to // 91.1 KKRD Enid. So 90.9 is still KOKF OKC,
not DX

94.9 at 1827, $tereo talk about A.A.; 1831 show is `New Life Live`,
1-800-NEWLIFE. That must be a program, not a station. No ID until:
1900, ``KJLT 94.9 North Platte`` and long string of translators by
alternating voices, then gospel rock:
KJLT-FM 94.9 NORTH PLATTE NE CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN KING JESUS LIVES
TODAY 100.0 230.0 40-59-49 100-52-47 28F5 Title & Artist ON LIFE 94.9
KJLT | THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON KJLT/KJTF | LISTEN KJLT.ORG
308-532-5515 Religious Music 583 km/362 stmi

102.5 at 1829, Bott Radio Network:
KKCV 102.5 ROZEL KS RELIGIOUS TEACHING BOTT RADIO NETWORK 100.0 148.8
37-57-28 99-25-45 - where is Rozel? Due S of Hays, WSW of Great Bend,
pop 156. Those lucky Rozelians with a full-power FM station of their
own! 241/150

105.9 at 1833, Mexmx. Aside from a 74-watt translator in The Dominion
TX, there are two possibilities, in TX and KS:
KUZN 105.9 CENTERVILLE TX Spanish CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN RADIO ALELUYA
25.0 100.0 31-16-56 95-53-42 -- and:
KSSA 105.9 INGALLS KS Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA KE BUENA 105.9 FM &
1470 AM 100.0 203.0 37-46-48 100-27-38 415C KE BUENA KSSA...KSSA
Centerville is on I45, closer to Huntsville than Corsicana. Ingalls is
midway between Dodge City & Garden City, much closer and brief hearing
sounded more like Regional than Christian, so: KSSA 279/173

105.3 at 1835, ``105.3 The Buzz``:
KFBZ 105.3 HAYSVILLE KS HD HOT AC THE BUZZ 105.3 98.0 307.0 37-48-01
97-31-29 1D67 KFBZ 105.23 THE BUZZ KFBZ 105.5 THE BUZZ Top 40 138/86

104.9 at 1835, S Asian language; really stands out, heard before:
KZMP-FM 104.9 PILOT POINT TX HD ETHNIC FUNASIA 35.0 535.0 33-33-37
96-57-34 534B KZMP-FM 104.9 Pilot Point, Dallas, Fort Worth
WWW.FUNASIA.COM 344/214

105.1 at 1835 and later, sports talk in MONO. Not shown as mono by
WTFDA. Not DX:
KOSB 105.1 PERRY OK SPORTS TRIPLE PLAY SPORTS RADIO 6.0 100.0 36-14-15
97-21-59 36CD KOSB //KOKP 1020/KOKB 1580 54/34

104.7 at 1837, ``Kiss 104.7`` also thus on FB, YL with ``stupid
headlines``
KXNC 104.7 NESS CITY KS CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO KISS 104.7 16.5 273.0
38-36-32 99-42-11 291/181

93.7 at 1840, Spanish talk, ads, one with heavy English accent, (972)
AC; 1843, (469) AC, ad from Dalas:
KNOR 93.7 KRUM TX Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA RAZA 93.7 43.0 600.2
33-29-05 97-24-44 33D1 LA Raza Yo Soy Raza 93.7 FM LA Raza Yo Soy Raza
93.7 FM Rock 353/219

93.9 at 1841, Mexmx loud & clear unlike 93.7; at 1903, ``Show de
Andrés Gutiérrez; tema: dinero``, call-in, 805-YANOMAS, and a whatsapp
starting with 210, area code? Likely national show. (805) AC =
California: SLO, Ventura, Sta Bárbara counties; (210) if an AC would
be San Antonio TX. Only fit in quadri-state area:
KZRD 93.9 DODGE CITY KS Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA MEXICANA 100.0
246.0 37-55-56 100-19-02 // KSMM 101.5 243/151

100.7 at 1847, North Platte ad!, ``Flat Rock 100.7``, ``Jump`` song:
KRNP 100.7 SUTHERLAND NE CLASSIC ROCK FLAT ROCK 100.7 100.0 229.6
41-03-50 101-20-16 3E45 ROCK 100 KRNP Oldies
Sutherland is just west of NP on I-80. Whence strange name Flat Rock?
A geographical feature? Wikipedia says it`s nickname for NP, used by
several businesses. Another one is Little Chicago. This and 94.9 above
are my max DX in this opening: 583/362

97.9 at 1849, ```B-98, music of the 80s, 90s and today`` [what about
the 00s & 10s?]:
KRBB 97.9 WICHITA KS HD SOFT AC B 98 FM 100.0 313.0 37-46-40 97-30-37
3CFF KRBB FM - Song/Artist KRBB FM - Song/Artist No Program Type or
Undefined 152/94

Note: you get no hits by slogan, searching B98 or B-98 - it has to be
B space 98: B 98. And guess what, there is another B 98 in Oklahoma
but twice as far from me as Wichita fringe, usually edged out by
closer 97.7 and 98.1 stations. That could be confusing for Es DX! So
unheard from SE OK:
KZBB 97.9 POTEAU OK HOT AC B 98 100.0 610.0 35-04-19 94-40-46 521F
KZBB 979 Artist/Song KZBB Adult Hits [320/205]

96.7 at 1852, ``Sports Radio 96.7 and 1310 The Ticket``. Also some
more times past local 96.9:
KTCK-FM 96.7 FLOWER MOUND TX SPORTS SPORTS RADIO 1310 & 96.7, THE
TICKET 90.0 621.0 33-26-13 97-29-05 426A All sports all the time KTCK

91.5 at 1855, outro for `New Life Live` like on 94.9; not DX:

94.9 at 1900: see 94.9 at 1827 above

94.7 at 1901, ``KOKQ OKC, and Q947fm.com -- another call change, new
to me, not DX:
KOKQ 94.7 OKLAHOMA CITY OK HD CLASSIC ROCK Q94.7 94.9 372.0 35-35-52
97-29-23 1472 Q94.7 Song Artist | Q94.7 Oklahoma's Classic Rock Q94.7
Song Artist | Q94.7 Oklahoma's Classic Rock Rock

90.1 at 1906, Radio Kansas, Hutchinson, KHCC has totally captured from
KUCO OKC; also previous hour, classical with YL DJ while KUCO has none
since Kimberly Powell resigned for reasons unknown; and going from
local to syndicated now. Not DX

105.9 at 1908, ``KQ106`` by YL DJ, rock:
KQTZ 105.9 HOBART OK ADULT CONTEMPORARY THE MIX KQ106 100.0 311.0
34-52-15 99-17-36 3C47 KQTZ KQ-106 The Mix! Paradisebroadcasting kom
{sic}
BTW, one TV station reported Hobart had record hi temp for this date
in OK if not entire USA, 95! I think but not able to find any
confirmation. Altus did hit 90 per NWS. 174/108

104.3 at 1909, rock; 1912 ``B1043.net``: WTFDA list gets no hits on
B1043 or B104.3 or with spaces as slogan, but website points to Great
Bend with nary a callsign. Note that 104/3 is they way it shows in PS
Info and Radiotext fields!:
KVGB-FM 104.3 GREAT BEND KS CLASSIC ROCK THE POINT 96.0 247.0 38-25-54
98-46-18 4811 Song/Artist - B 104/3 "THE POINT" -KVGB-FM Song/Artist -
B 104/3 "THE POINT" -KVGB-FM Classic Rock 239/148

102.7 at 1915, Silver Dollar City in adstring, which is in Branson MO,
but finally ID ``KJ-103`` OKC; not a solid signal, but not DX, merely
KJYO

96.3 at 1919, plug iHeart app: Broad search on iHeart 96.3 leads to
Wichita. Its website shows nary a callsign except fine print at the
very bottom. Normally inaudible here, so it is DX:
KZCH 96.3 DERBY KS HD CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO CHANNEL 96.3 50.0 150.0
37-43-06 97-19-05 523F KZCH Song/Artist Song/Artist Rhythm and Blues
140/87

94.5 at 1920, Frank`s Snowplows is hiring - an example of indeed.com,
iHeart app ad, 1921 Topeka weather, ``The Big 94.5 Country`` starting
25 minutes of music:
WIBW 94.5 TOPEKA KS COUNTRY 94.5 BIG COUNTRY 100.0 370.0 39-01-34
95-55-02 69F8 WIBW-FM BIG 94.5 COUNTRY! WIBW-FM BIG 94.5 COUNTRY!
Country 354/220

94.1 at 1924, ``T-94`` or maybe another -e sounding single letter.
Nothing fits in TX or NE, but one of these:
KDNS 94.1 DOWNS KS COUNTRY KD 94 28.0 89.0 39-30-29 98-18-58 OR:
KZCD 94.1 LAWTON OK ROCK Z-94 35.0 178.0 34-32-59 98-32-21 523B Z94
Lawton/Fort Sill's Rock Station Rock - somewhat more likely. 204/127
Downs is in NC KS on US 24 not far from Nebraska 363/226

92.1 at 1925, ``The Real Country Giant, KFXI, Foxy 92``; not DX:
KFXI 92.1 MARLOW OK COUNTRY FOXY 92 100.0 166.0 34-40-50 98-01-02 1F92
KFXI Foxy 92 The Real Country Giant Request line 580-658-9384 Country

DX still incoming but time to suspend for lunch. APRS map at 1930 does
not include Nebraska, beyond southern KS, and into north TX. Then car
required for its original purpose. This hour of FMDXing led to at
least 3 hours of research and compilation. Each DX log a potential
learning experience (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
