Total posts : 45366
For a long time, Friday through Monday have been 24-hours a day for KDX, and this schedule will be maintained for our streaming stations, but the AM and FM picture is much different.
All intentional radiators are off except for an experimental signal from an AMT3000, which usually resonates a triangular loading coil and the Wintenna; half-indoors, half outdoors. The signal normally covers the yard, block, and parts of other blocks.
But it will be cool and rainy all weekend, so listening will be indoors for awhile.
The experiment: bypass the coil and drop the effective radiated signal so the peak seen on the spectrum analyzer is way below normal. Result? Indoor coverage is excellent and during periods when we won’t be listening the transmitter will be shut off.
We are adapting quite well to the state of uncertainty.
