Dear Sir: Thank you for your letter of February 3, 1951. Am pleased

very much that you picked up our station in New Yexico.

This is to verify your reception of Y: A L T in Atlanta, Texas

on Feb. 10, 1951. YOUR letter stated that the date was Feb. 3

but according to my log the Duke Ellington Show was on Feb. 10.

I think if you will check you will also find it to be correct.

Thanks again for your nick letter and report.

Dear Mister Maguire:

Thank you very much for your nice letter of June 6, 1960. This letter is to confirm or verify your reception of KBAN on that date from 5:00 AM until 5:15 AM during a frequency check. Your information was correct. We have a standing schedule for frequency measurements on the first monday of each month from 5:00 AM until 5:15 AM. We appreciate your letters very much. We keep a file of all letters such as yours.

I am especially glad to receive a letter from Albuquerque because this gives me an opportunity to ask a favor of you. I'll explain briefly and then tell you what I wish you would do for me. During World War II, I became a close friend with a fellow from there. I lost his address and I would like very much to get in touch with him again. Perhaps you could find his name in the telephone directory and call him and give him my address and then write me aeain and give me his address. I would appreciate this favor very much.

Dear Norman:

This letter will verify your reception of KCLR on October 14, as reported by your letter of that date.

Your report of the spot for Al Cooper Motor company and news and sign off announcements are correct.

We appreciate your report very much and I am sending you a coverage map of KCLR that you might find interesting.

KCLR went on the air on May 31, 1963. We have received a lot of reports of people listening on ordinary sets in Eastern New Mexico. You might also be interested in knowing that our farthest DXTer report has có._, from San Diego, California. Yesterday we received a report from Bloomfield, Colorado (near Denver). Our tower is in a lake which is dry now but when we first went on the air we had heavy rains which completely submerged the ground system, save maybe 30 wires. We have 320 wires in the ground, nearly a thousand pounds of copper. This could account for some of our good coverage.

If you are ever out this way, we would be happy for you to see our setup.

Dear Mr. Maguire,

This is to verify your reception of KEGG's DX test, Monday, December 10th, 1979 from 2129 AM to 3 :02 AM, Central Standard Time. All re- ports received to date say almost the same thing concerning the inter- ference from KCJJ in Iowa City, Iowa.

Most of the letters I have received want a bumper sticker or some- thing along that line for a souvenir. I am enclosing a coverage map in appreciation of your time spent.

As of 12/21/79, I have received letters of verification from: New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, New Mexico, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Tennessee.

I want to take this time to thank you and the other members of the Radio Club who took the time to monitor KEGG. The information re- ceived was very interesting!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOURS!

Dear Sir:

It is ineed a pleasure to conferm your receiption of KELP. It is daytime reoprts like yours that realy give engineers of stations a thrill. You see we can tell just about our coverage from such reports. We have reäeived a number of night reports from back east but yours is the first report in the day time that we could call real DX. To reach Albuquerque with 1000 watts on 920 is realy doing something.

I was employed at KOB for two years nine months and realize that day time receiption there is realy a chore. Jim Stapleton W5AOE is out at the transmitter at 1:OB so run out and visit him realy a swell fellow. Also several of the other fellows out there are Hams.

The equipment here is Raytheon RA -1000 running 1000watts into a 250' antenna with 240 radials 275' long. Sunday was a good day being wet here. This a. used our efficiency to run 78 %. So far we have had good luck with every thing and our coverage has been very good.

Thanks again for your report and if you are ever down this way be sure to drop in and look us over.

Very Best 7

Dear Mr. Maguire:

I am very happy to verify your DX report of Radio Station KENR on October 8, 1979. For your information KENR operates with a 9 tower directional antenna system 24 hours a day. Our daytime power is 10,000 watts at night (sunset to sunrise, local time) we operate with 5,000 watts. The directional pattern is the same both day and night. Our transmitter is located approximately 20 miles north northwest of downton Houston. Our main lobe of the pattern goes directly acrooss the city. Since we are on 1070khz we must protect KRLD, Dallas (to the north on 10$0), KOPY in Alice Texas (1070 khz 217 miles to the south east of Houston) and KPXE (1050 khz in Liberty Texas , 43 miles east of Houston) KENR radiates very little signal in your direction. We do not have a coverage map but I am sending you a copy of the coverage map in our 1975 FCC Proof of Performance for our 9 tower directional system.

Thanks for the D.X. report and please excuse the delay for my answer. We have been doing extensive construction at out transmitter site and it has taken much of my time. (We just installed a new HARRIS MW -10 transmitter on 9/1/79) Thanks again.

Saludos, Norman

Reìl1yy pleased to receive your excellent report on KIXZ's all night show Dec. 28 between 1:31 and 2:00 a.m. CST, and I'm even more pleased to verify it for you. Apparently, you're just a shade too far away fur the ground wave and a little too close for the sky wave, for reports indicate we poured into California and Washington quite handilyt

I'm really happy to see your increased activity this season as the health appar- ently is improvdng, but sorry your eyes are troubling you, friend. I hope you/re able to complete the thesis without too much more difficulty.

I'mback at the books now, after a four -year hiatus, and I hope to be able to have a Ph. D. within five years. I've got 12 to go on my B.A. (in International Relations), will go an ahead and ket the M.A. fulltime at West Texas State College, and hope cred&ntials I've collected here at KIXZ will allow me to find night radio work for two years more where I can get PH.D. from "prestige" school in my field.

I've been threatining for some time now to bundle up Godwin, Harp, Stewart and the rest of the Amarillo clan and sneak in on you in Albuquerque to show them how a real DX'er operates, hit Visited Marty Wright in Clovis awhile back ... he seems to be pretty heads up. You know Jack Rhea is over at KNDE in Aztec now ? ?? I heard them when they turned the xmtr on for the first time.

Thanks again for the report, Norm, and I hope to see you at White Plains in 1960, but if not, how about Amarillo in '61, okay?

Dear Mr. Maguire,

This is to verify your reception of our test signal on August 20th, at 0012 in the morning.

We certainly thank you for the interest shown and also for the information concerning our signal.

We have an old Hallicrafter SX -28 and sometimes, just for laughs we tune thru the broadcast band, especially during our test schedules, since we are a daytime only. It constantly amazes me when I get some far off broadcast station and read them so well. Good old ionosphere.

Thanks again Mr. Maguire.

Dear Norman:

Yep; Ya heard us, We, with the other Houston area stations, carried the "Radiothon" from the music hall in Houston. We were scheduled to run all night, but the march of dimes show Rave up about five in the morning and most of the stations signed off, There are eleven stations in Harris county, eight in Houston, one in Pasadena, and two in Baytown. Nine stations were carrying this particular program, and the other two would have except that they are daytime only stations. KXYZ had to cut away from it at 12:15 A.M. because of commercial commitments. Otherwise any Houston area station you could hear was carrying, the same program.

Being a ham, you are no doubt reasonably familiar with "Conelrad" operation. Nine of the stations in the Houston area operate in the two clusters on 640 and 1240 Kc. Oviously, I can't say what station operates on which frequency (That's classified information). We also have tie lines to the two stations which do not operate in "Conelrad". This "network" is usefgl, not only for Conelrad, but for other - purposes. We choose to call it the Houston inter -city network, and it comes in handy at times. For example: I recieved an order for a last minute remote the other night, too late to install a remote line of my own without a great deal of confusion with the telephone company. A fast cheik showed that the point of hrigination had a remote line regularly installed to KLBS. I tied on to the line and went through KLBS and the "Conelrad" Sequential Switching Center to my station. At other times, of course, it ties all stations together as you heard.

The "Conelrad" Sequential Switching Center, the location of which is classified, is equipped to feed the same or different programs to the two clusters in swquence, feed the same program to all sta- tions simultaniously (I hope that's the way you spell it), or to patch lines between any Riven stations. The lines from the center to the stations are "simplexed" and have an alarm system or trio simplex. We have a direct line from the weather bureau to the switching center and to Police and Fire Departments. In any emer- gency, all stations in the Houston area can be alerted and have the emergency information on the air in a matter of minutes. Yes, Pasadena is close to Houston, Eo close, in fact, that they have a common city limit. KLVL is located in the Southeast corner of Pasadena. Our main studios and transmitter are located in our own building at 1811 Pasadena, Boulevard. We normally operate from 6 :00 A. M. until 12 Midnight, and operation from 8 :00 A. L. until 8 :00 P. M. is in Spanish. We are the principal Spanish outlet of the upper gulf coast. Our Latin American studios, as we call them, are located at 2903 Canal Street in Houston° We operate with 1000 watts non- directional during; the daytime and 500 watts directional at night, We have a two tower directional array with the towers on a line 115° - 295° true. Our directional pattern gives us an effec- tive radiated power of slightly more than 1 Kw on the line 115° and about 350 watts on the line 2950e As best I can estimate, you are located approximately on the line of towers to the west which means that about 350 watts is being thrown in your direction° The difference in signal strength between us and KLBú is due to their night time directional array. They have a four tower "in line" array with the major lobe of radiation straight south, and a complete null to the north. The pattern is a "cardoid ", and the way the pattern comes into the null in your direction, even though they are running 5 Kw, it is doubtful if the effective radiated power in your direc- tion is more than 200 watts. So, apparently, you get about 150 watts more from us than from KLBS even though they are running 10 times the power we do at night.

The Henry's food market spot was correct except for one small error. It is 2020 Fulton Street rather than 2020 Cullen Blvd, The fact that you mentioned Cullen Blvd. indicates that you might be familiar with Houston, I wonder maybe could you have gorse to the University of Houston which is located on Cullen Blvd,

I remember the portion of the program you describe. At that time yours truly was engineer, ann..uncer, janitor, chief flunkey and anything else you can think of. The spot you heard at 4 o'clock was the last one I made. At four I turned it over to another engineer and I hit for the house and the sack. As for the missed break at 4 :30, it just so happened that the boss was going on a fishing trip that morning and he was listening to the station. My relief has already been on the carpet about it.

We're always glad to hear from you boya and we'll always verify reception.

My best.

Mr. Norman L. Maguire, 111;K /V /5. 434 North Maple, Albuquerque, N. M.

Dear Mr. Maguire;

Received your nice letter and report on reception of our station on November 21st. We are glad to verify your reception and would have answered sooner out I have been waiting in vain for the pictures that our announcer, Mike Davis, promised. Just as soon as we get some I will be sure to forward you one. I am keeping all reports on file.

The station here is a Gates 250 Watt job with a 160 Ft. Windcharger tower. We are located about 2,000 Ft. above sea -level in a rocky and hilly country. Our normal daytime range is about 50 miles, out at night the interference on this channel cuts us down to about 25 miles.

If you are ever down this way look us up and we will be glad to show you through the station and transmitter.

Thanking you again for the nice report and hoping to hear from you again some time, I remain,

Yours very truly;

Dear Sir:

I wish to acknowledge your letter dated April 12, but first want to apologize for our seemingly laxity. As you probably kndrw, we have been "snowed under" with work the past few weeks and are just now getting caught up.

We are using the Collins 20 -T equip- ment. This gear is designed to operate with 500 or 1000 watts. We operate with 500 watts daytime. The studios are downtown in Victoria and the transmitting equipment is located about one and one -half miles from town. We are using a shunt -fed 200 ft. tower with 240 radials in the ground system. 120 of which are 200 ft and 120 50 ft.

Thank you very much for answering our request for reports from Dxers and if we can give you any further infor- mation, or be of assistance in any way, please write.

Dear Norm:

This verifies your reception of KPDN December 17, 1962, on 1340 kilo - cyiles between 2 :30 and 2:!.6 a.m., C.S.T. I am sorry reception could not have been better, but so far, results on the broadcast have been more than satisfactory, considering the croeded condition of the channel.

Jim Crttchett dug out a few verifiable items through XEAA, KORK, KMAK, KSET and another open carrier in San Diego, and there have also been letter reports from Wichita and Amarillo, plus phoned info that we were heard in Indianapolis and Mendota. It is early yet for most reports to come in.

KHHH will be on ... but I couldn't balk them into a time any better than Sunday morning, December 30th, 12 :15 to 2:15 C.S.T. That's not very good for 1230 kc., but twas the best I could do. It will follow their 15- minute, twice -a -year f /c. They tried to get the monitor to change the f/c to Monday, December 31, but he wouldn't budge, so Sunday morning ita is. Signer is A.C. Higgins, Chief Engineer, and this will be an NRC DX.

My "pseudonym" was Will Pierce, a "hopeful" pun, hit

XEYC was in pretty good shape here.

I hope you get to feeling better, and get up to that trailer every now and then. May try to play visitation games somebime soon. I've got to go up to Denver, though, in mid- January and straighten out Godwin.

That and distant reception of the KHHH DX fall in the "fat- chance" category. Ah, well.

Whoops, I forgot. This verification goes in your collection for display. Come to think of it, I doubt if Godwin will peruse your verses, and everyone else will no where I stand, so no problem.

Dear Norman ;

I was personally gratified at your report of reception of our signal, and that it rated R4-5, S5 -6 on your HQ -129X Harnmarlund .

We are the newest radio station in this area. In fact, the first one in over 10 years to hit the air in this Golden Triangle of the Gulf Coast. Over 3 years of engineering preparatory work and construction went into this plant, before we began operations in July of 1959.

Located in the rich petro -chemical Beaumont -Port Arthur area, we are little more than a stones' throw from the Gulf of Iiexico. Our transmitter site is in an old rice field where moisture is well contained in the soil. The towers are 224' in height, spaced 404' 2" apart on a_-Tlane of 85°- 265° from true north. The ground system consists of 120 220' - 310' equi- spaced buried copper radials, plus 120 50' interspaced radials about the base of each of our two towers. We have essentially a figure 8 pattern. Our transmitter is a Gates 500T 500 watter, employing a -5° phasing to our radiators, giving a field ratio of 1.0 to 0.9.

If any of your friends are interested, we pperate from 05tí0 to local sunset CST, seven days weekly, with frequency checks at 0445 - 0500 the first Monday in each month.

Thanking you again for your reception report, I remain Sincerely yours

We are pleased to -erify your reception of our station on the morning of September 5, 1954.

The program you received was a cooperative one for the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas in which other Valley stations joined. It originated in the studios of the Harlingen station.

Our trG nsmitter is an R.C.A. type BTA -1N (1. KW) . We also have a Western Electric 1.KW transmitter for standby and emergency use.

Our antenna is a two tower directional system with main direction south -east, day and night.

Yours truly,

I do not hold an amateur licence but my co workers do.

W5AET - Wm. Meiners is chief engineer. He works mostly on the 80 meter band, but has been tuning his transmitter to get on the other bands.

W5LKJ - W.R. Parker is also transmitter engineer. He has been working on 80.m. which is the most active frequency locally.

If you hear either of these, give them a shout. The local emergency net is the Emergency Net (STEN) and meets monday morning and monday evening. You should be able to receive them this winter.

Dear_Mr. Maguire:

Your report of the 17th received with interest, and we appreciate

the advice on our rood reception out that way.

This will confirm your report on our si na1, as we were conducting

our regular monthly frequency check on the rnorninn. of September 17th,

between 0445 and 0500 CST. KEY operates on a frequency of 1230 kese,

with power of 100 watts, with CP to 250, t o be achieved in the near future.

With Gates equipment, we shunt feed our 150 foot vertical radiator, located

Dear Mr. Maguire:

Please excuse this belated reply to your very kind BCL report of our March 14, 1949 test program. I think that it is pretty generally agreed from all the reports that we got that March 14 was as bad a night as anyone could have chosen for such a transmission. At that time we were having a very heavy rain and thunder storm. We had the smallest response that we have ever had even though the program in question was the most publicised. Just one of those things. You can't stop atmospherics. Maybe in the near future we can repeat the program on a better night so that the boys up and down the BCL circuit can have an easier time hearing us.

In view of all the poor conditions, we congratulate you for hearing as much of the program as you did and are happy to verify it by this letter.

Yours very truly,

Dear oir:

Thank you very much for your nice letter of con- firmation on the reception of our station on the morning of May 17, 1949. You were absolutely right in every detail as to programs and announcements re- ceived.

Some stuff for a little 250 watt rig, don't you think? Our transmitter here is a Western Electric 451-A-1. The final R. F. stage is Class B Linear Operation. I don't know if this is the same operation as you fellows have there or not. There are six tubes (Western Electric 242 -C) operating class B Linear push - pull Cascade operation, Makes for very good output and also good reception, but it is very hard to keep in adjustment. We are operating into a 266 ft., Guyed, series fed antenna .46 (forty six hundredths) wave- length long. If there is anything further you would like to know about the "Rig" please don't fail to write and ask. We will gladly reply.

Again may I say thanks very ^such for your letter. Let us hear from you again.

Yours very truly,

Lewis D. Fisher, Chief Engineer I, LN EISHOP, MANAGER i'1-!CNL rn

Radio Friend: --

Thank you for your reception report of Friday,February 7,1936. Though the program carefully and correctly charted was the Cities Service network offering,you saved the situation by quoting, nearly correctly,the words of station identification and the Station Break announcement of "Doc Jackson's Garake"

WPAL did not,however,broadcast the Frank Munn Phillips Milk of Magnesia program,which you mentioned as following.

Instead,there was a studio program.

You must have switched about that time.

Best wishes.

Very truly, J a Adams Cslhoui
