  • Engineering Report Concerning
    ENGINEERING REPORT CONCERNING THE EFFECTS UPON FCC LICENSED RF FACILITIES DUE TO CONSTRUCTION OF THE GREAT PATHFINDER WIND ENERGY PROJECT In BOONE & HAMILTON COUNTIES, IOWA Prepared for Apex Clean Energy Lake Elmo, Minnesota Revised: April 2, 2020 By: B. Benjamin Evans Evans Engineering Solutions (262) 518-0178 Phone www.evansengsolutions.com Great Pathfinder Wind, IA RF Impact Report - Page 1 ENGINEERING REPORT CONCERNING THE EFFECTS UPON FCC LICENSED RF FACILITIES DUE TO CONSTRUCTION OF THE GREAT PATHFINDER WIND ENERGY PROJECT In BOONE AND HAMILTON COUNTIES, IOWA I. INTRODUCTION This engineering report describes the results of a study and analysis to determine the locations of federally-licensed (FCC) microwave and fixed station radio frequency (RF) facilities that may be adversely impacted as a result of the construction of the Great Pathfinder Wind Energy Project in Boone and Hamilton Counties, Iowa. This document describes impact zones and any necessary mitigation procedures, along with recommendations concerning individual wind turbine siting. All illustrations, calculations and conclusions contained in this document are based on FCC database records1. Frequently, wind turbines located on land parcels near RF facilities can cause more than one mode of RF impact, and may require an iterative procedure to minimize adverse effects. This procedure is necessary in order to ensure that disruption of RF facilities either does not occur or, in the alternative, that mitigation procedures will be effective. The purpose of this study is to facilitate the siting of turbines to avoid such unacceptable impact. The Great Pathfinder Wind project as currently planned involves the construction of up to 74 wind turbines just southeast of the city of Stratford, in northern Boone County and southwestern Hamilton County, Iowa.

  • Country's Sweet Spot for Powers Eddie Hatfield Hangs It Up
    November 30, 2020, Issue 733 Country’s Sweet Spot for Powers In September, radio pundit Sean Ross analyzed the relationship between power rotations and the ratings success of Top 40 stations in PPM markets. What he found was an eye-opening inverse relationship between the number of spins-per-week for power songs and station ratings. Those Top 40s playing powers more than 130 times per week averaged a three share, while those playing them less than 100 times POWER SWEET SPOT? per week averaged a 5.5 share. The article spurred 4.9 4.8 Country Aircheck to perform a 4.0 similar analysis for Country stations. Pitcher Perfect: Big Loud’s Hardy celebrates his inaugural No. 1 While Country as an artist, “One Beer,” featuring Mercury’s Lauren Alaina and and Top 40 are Warner/WEA’s Devin Dawson.
