You did, indeed, receive a broadcast of Travelers Information Station KID 707, located six miles south of Nags Head, North Carolina. While parts of your description were inaccurate, there is still no question that you were listening to our station.

The transmitter we use is a 10 watt Audio -Sine, which is usually effective inside a range of 10 miles. You can imagine how surprised we were to learn that it was monitored at a range of 350 miles! Thank you for taking the time to let us know.

As a Christian broadcaster, I feel compelled to challenge the issues that have been ignored in the church for so long. One of these issues has been the toleration of racial separation.

in re: Letter 960'117 Reception report Berean Baptist Church

Dear Mr. Geary

Pastor Ron Baity of Berean Baptist Church has contacted me (and forwarded the letterconcerning your reception report of station WPIP. Our firmis WPIP's engineering counsel of record. Enclosed please find a map showing the normally protected (0.5 mV/m, F(50,50) nighttime contourof WCBS New York, the absolute position of your receiving post, and the calculated F(50,10) 0.1 mV/mskywave contour of WPIP. Frankly, we are astonished that you could copy WPIP at all although you mentionedthat you were using an Adcock antenna or a high performance ferriteH -field antenna.

As an aside, I had a Sony SRF-100 AM stereo receiver that would null out WAYShere in Charlotte (610 kc) perfectly and I could hear other stations holding the radio in variousodd positions. Unfortunately, my poor little Sony went to my ex-wife in the divorceproceeding.(This is a littlebit like the old management tactic of "when you want to fire someone, give them everything except the onething they want.")

I haven't even heard the Hammarlund word in 10 years (I am 35).Frankly, a radio receiver with 18 valves boggles the mind. (Then again, I had a Kenwood KT -917 FM tuner (stolenfrom me in 1989) with a nine gang tuning condenser - two for the local oscillatoralone!)

Also, I am quite flattered by your remarks about WPIP's.signal quality. This is noaccident. We are using a Gates BC -1(T?) which is the tall one with theholes in the bottom. The valve lineup consists 3330's (with the. pyrolytic. ;...;ix type 867,7; (two 1-cr ano four tor Inuoulator drive) and a couple of 12BY7's in the crystal oscillator and firstbuffer. This transmitter has been modified extensively including the installation of modern solid state rectifiers, polypropylene /polystyrene (where voltage permits) condensers, and metallised film (established reliability) resistors. Thistransmitter is high level plate modulated AM.

The "modification" consists of putting a 500 ohm 200 watt adjustable resistor in series withthe B+ leading to the modulatior's audio blocking choke (about 50 henries). The final amplifier isoperated at 2500 vdc but the modulators are operated at 2,900 vdc. We can fit under the NRSC RF mask evenat 140% modulation (positive).

Our transmitting antenna is the folded unipole type with three symmetrical feedlinesrunning the entire length of the tower. Shorting bars permit us to tune the 200' tower's resistance to50 ohms, and the remaining inductive reactance is tuned out with a single vacuum variable condenser. Theimpedance

ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE IN DEVOTIONAL SERVICE 2613CRAIG Avg CONCORD, NORTHCAROLINA 28027 704-786-8874 -2 - bandwidth is excellent, varying only one or two ohms within our alloted channel.

We think our audio quality is rather crummy, as BellSouth still cannot get a quiet programmelink between our studios on Thomasville Road and the transmitter site downtown. There is apersistent 8000 hz squeal. This year, we will be installing Marti STL's and fire BellSouth.I've simply given up on them. Our audio processing consists of the CRL Audio Preparation Processor, and the middle one,but in lieu of their output processor, we are using Inovonics equipment for peak limiting and bandwidthcontrol.

In answer to your question, you definiteiy received WPIP.I am astonished that you didn't also receive WBLU (or whatever it is now) at Smith Mountain Lake, (Moneta) , also on880 kc.

The only other time I have ever received a letter like yours were from two independent DX clubs in New Zealand who heard my client KGOL Humble (Houston) . My ex-wife insiststhat she heard the FM station in Charlotte on 104.7 me at a rest area 30 miles into Virginia on Interstate95.I once received WGBF Evansville, IN (1280) in Greensboro, NC perfectly for about four minutes.Once, one of my dearest friends (we've known each other since 8th grade)and our attorney were sitting in his parent's basement and instead of receiving channel 4 from Chapel Hill, we received channel 4 fromLos Angeles. It is also usual in April to see KPRC-TV Houston (video only) completely overtaking WFMYGreensboro on channel 2. Somewhere I have video tape of this.

Well,I must be off to WOGR Charlotte to put tower 1 into nondirectional operation (tower 2, the other tower, has been the nondirectional tower so we could build #1's atu during thedaytime.) Tower 2 has a massive kink in it and it is about to fall.

Thank you again for your letter, and have a safe, prosperous, and blessed year.

In His service,

York David Anthony

Be Happy... January 11, 1988

Dear Kermit:

Thank you for your report of reception of WHCH on December 23, 1987. We did air commercials for Frazier Shoes...and Hardin's Drug "Where you get discount prices just like your neighbors." I am not certain of the song that you heard played following those commercials.

It appears that your reception of WHCH was made possible by the fact that we were a minute or two later than the station in Dunn in signing -off that day.

Since your report, our AM call letters have been changed back to WBBO-AM and we continue to simulcast with our FM station. The FM station transmitter was recently moved to a site near Tryon. N.C. which tripled our coverage area. The format is now a mixture of and light contemporary called "The Breeze."

Maybe you'll have the opportunity to hear the station as WBBO in the near future.

Dear Kermit:

This letter is a confirmation of your reception of WLNC Radio (1300 khz), Laurinburg, North Carolina. After listening to your tape, you had a clear WLNC in my voice in the commercial you mentioned is for Nic's Pic Kwik Convenience Stores of Laurinburg.

I am personally happy to find that there are still people like you listening to AM radio as I personally feel it will be coming back in the near future. I have been a broadcaster for approximately 20 years and love working in AM. It offers us a lot more freedom than the "tightly controled" FM formats of today's mechanical sounding radio.

It was a pleasure to meet you when you stopped by on your way to .

For your information, WLNC operates on 1300 khz with a power of 500 watts from 6:00 a.m. until local sunset. Our transmitter is a Gates MW -1 operating on low power at 500 watts.

Re: Confirmation of broadcast

Dear Mr. Geary:

First, let me say how much I enjoyed meeting you, sir, during your visit to our station on November 2nd of last year. I found our conversation inspiring.

Next, please allow me to apologize for being so late in sending you this confirmation of your reception of our transmission. As you can imagine, from November through the springtime is probably the most important, if not the busiest period in broadcasting.

After hearing your tape, and your transcript, let this letter officially serve as WAUG-AM's confirmation of your reception of our signal on September 19th, 1987, from 7:25pm to 7:30:30pm Eastern Daylight Time. We here at WAUG-AM want to wish you and the DX Listening Post all of the best, and much continued success.

By the way, I'm keeping the letter and the stamp your sent for my files. I found both to be, once again, "inspiring".

God bless you.

Thank you for your excellent reception report. This letter will serve as a verification of October 2, 1949.

W E E B is completely Gates equipped, including a Gates 1D transmitter. It is one of the few such still in operation but has proved very satisfactory. I am sorry that I did not answer your previous reception reports. The letters must have been lost as I looked through our files, but could not find them.

Dear Mr Geary;

Thanks a million for your fine letter giving us the dope on your reception of our broadcast on Thursday , November 15,1951 at 2001 A.M. I want to congratulate you on your fine report.

It was certainly in detail and our Chief Engineer said that you were very exact in your re- port and also said that he could use a thorough man like you here.

The Turkey went to Corporal Joseph E. Sawyer , 766th AC & W. squadron , Limestone,Maine. The next distance from Kinston was Orlando , Florida and then Erie , Pennsylvania was third .I believe that fourth place was about tied up between you and Camden , N.J.

For your information we were operation on 1230 kilocycles with a power of 250 watts . We are going to 5000 watts about the first of the year so you should get us very well after that .I will appreciate it if you will deck me every now and then and let me know if we are consis- tantly getting into your range .

Thanks again for your fine letter and let the fellas up there know that welre on the air each night Monday thru Saturday, from 12:00 midnite unti1,2:00 am EST . Thakks again and best of luck.

Dear Sir; In the beginning of this letter sir let me say that I'm sorry that the press of circumstances, and the work of getting our transmitter and studio operating properly, caused this delay in our sending confirmation of the program that you heard from this station on Feb. 15,1947, but I do hereby send you that confirmation.'..

in the event you are interested, here is the arrangement of studios,etc. at this station. We are using the whole upper floor of the Radio Bldg., which has been cut up into two very well constructed studios, one large control room, the rest being used for administration offices, as for program handling we are using two telephone lines from the studios to the transmitter which is located on Eagle Island about 5 miles fro*the heart of Wilmington, N.C. The program feeds through the usual jack board to a Western Electric type 23-C console from which the engineers can control the program level, the output of the console feeds a limiter stage, the output of which goes to the transmitter. The transmitter is a Western Electric 450A-1, using 6 type 242-c tubes in the final stage, in push-pull parallel, and having 250 watts output. We are using General Radio frequency and modulation percentage monitoring equipment and find that it is doing fine work. Thanking you for your letter and always glad to hear from you I remain, Yours Since //ly,

Dear Mr. Geary:

Needless to say, I am delighted to confirm that the signal you heard from WGSP on Saturday evening, January 7, 1984, Eastern Standard Time, did in fact originate here in Charlotte, NC.

You did hear us loud and clear as your tape obviously proves and this is further confirmed by the exact verbage you used in the letter I received dated January 9, 1984. We have been on the air since June 22, 1983, with our "Great Sounds of the Past" and have fought very hard to put together an effective format that would please the market. Moreover, our engineer, Stu Albert, has put forth a great effort in upgrading our signal to have it perform with maximum efficiency within the specific limitation as set by the FCC. I am very proud of what Stu has done. I am hopeful that once again in the near future, we can grace the airways of Walnutport, PA and offer to you my most sincere appreciation for the trouble you took to communicate with us in a most professional manner.

Dear Sir,

Thanks so much for your taking time to write. This is to confirm your reception report of WTLK April 26-27, 1982. The programming you described is essentially correct. Steele Rulane is the gas company you mentioned. Elmores in Westpark Shopping Center in Statesville is the Wheel Horse dealer. Our studios, offices, transmitting facilities, and tower site are on Linneys Mountain. As you noted from our Sign -on announcement, we operate at 1,000 watts daytime and 500 wattspre -sunrise. On both mornings of your reception, we were operating at 500 watts til 7:00a.m. In May, we operate at 500 watts til 6:15a.m. In June, we will be signing on at 6:00 a.m. with 1,000 watts. Incidentally, we sign off in May at 8:30 p.m. You might be interested to know that we have received reception reports from , PA, Washington, DC are, and Conneticut in the last severalmonths. The most incredible reception report we haveever received was from West Germany in December, 1981. Probably one reason for our unusual "Skip" is that we are locatdd on Linneys Mountain which is about400 feet above the surrounding area. Our tower is only about 180 feet tall. Elevation of Taylorsville is about 1400 feet above sealevel. Our transmitter is a Collins 20-V3 which was new when the station signedon in 1962. When we changed transmitter sites a few yearsago, we installed the best ground system possible here on themountain. I have tried to mention things you might want to know as I think of them. I would be happy to try to answer any other questions you may have at any time. And will be happy to hear from you concerning further reception of WTLK. Again, thanks for writing and keep listening. Sorry you did not receive verification ofyou February reception. I remember receiving the letter, but I'm notsure whether anyone ever wrote a reply at that time.

Sincere y,

Dear Mr. Geary:

This will acknowledge with thanks, your DX report of 12 December and I'm happy to verify your report in every way. You may be interested in knowing that on December 25, 1993, WSSG installed a new HARRIS MW-lA transmitter, and shortly afterwards, a DAP 310 audio processor. These changes were necessary because of a December 22nd fire in our old GATES BC -1F transmitter which caused damage beyond repair.

And with -in the next several weeks, we plan to begin construction of a new ground system. The transmitter location, on Highway 70 West of Goldsboro at the Little River bridge will remain the same. Ronnie early in February of this year, sold his interest In the station and resigned his position as General Manager. I'm sorry I missed your visit in 'R3, I apparently was out of the office.

WWOL radio will be going to 10,000watts of power, sun up to sun down in late fall. We will be taking our current Collins 820d-2 transmitter (main) and our Gates BF -1 (1952 backup) out and replacing it the the Nautel amphet 10 solid state.

We certainly admire and are excited that they are still people out the from a long distance that still try to pick up distant stations. We look forward to hearing from you again.

IfI can be of any assistance in the future, just write me.

Enclosed are a few tokens with our stations logo's.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Geary:

I was very pleased to hear from you concerning your reception of Radio Station WGMA on the morning of Thursday, April 5th, 1984.

It is always rewarding to hear from people who pick us up from long distances. I was surprised that the reception was as clear as you stated in your letter. We operate on a power of 500 Watts, so you can see I was pleased to know that we had been picked up 60 miles north of .

I am sending you some information concerning our station, which I trust will be informative. I hope you will be able to hear us again, and this letter is confirmation of your reception of WGMA on the above stated date.

If you are in this area, stop by to see us. Thank you for your interest in our radio station.

Mr. Kermit Geary 1266 Riverview Drive Walnutport, PA 18088

Dear Mr. Geary

Thank you for sending information about your reception of WDTF on February 20 & 21 I am pleased to report that our logs indicate your reception report was quite accurate. The sponsors were Jonathan's House Educational Tutoring Centers and Brookwood Vetrinary Clinic, but otherwise your report was correct. In addition to my General Managers duties, I do the morning air shift and was the announcer you heard during breaks.

WDTF is a 500 -watt non -directional AM station licensed to Raleigh, NC. We have recently been authorized to increase power to 1000 watts and that should happen when a new transmitter is installed about April 1'. Our night time power is limited to 59 watts. You must have received the station just after the power change which is made each day at 6:00 a.m.

WDTF originally went on the air in the mid -70's as WLLE as this communities primary Rhythm and Blues formatted station targeting the African -American community. In the fall of 1997 the station was sold to, and operated by, Mortenson Broadcasting of Lexington, KY and the format was changed to Christian Talk and Information. In June of 1999, Mortenson sold the facility to North Carolina's largest locally owned radio broadcast group, . November 5t, 1999 the call letters were changed to WDTF.

I am enclosing a tabloid paper we recently distributed to our area. I think you will find it includes interesting information about our operation.

Sincerely yours,

Dear Kermit,

First I would like to say thanks a million for your nice letter, I'm gild to hear that we are putting in a nice signal up there Ionly wish it could be a permanent one.

We were on the air Sunday Jan. 9th 1949, from4:40 A.M. until 4:50 A.M. for our monthly frequency check. The station was signed on and followed by tone modulation (1000 cycles) for a duration of ten minutes the tone was on for 30sec. and off for 10 sec.

Although I was not employed here at the time of the equipment checks a check with the back transmitter logs and a talk with announcer that was on duty at the time, shows that the station was on the air at 2:07 on the morning of february 12, 1948. The reason for being on at that time was for Freq. @heck and Equipment Tests.

Thanks again for your fine letter and let me wish you muchmore fine listning. I am

Dear Mr. Geary,

Received your very nice DX report today and I was very happy to hear from you. I have been receiving letters from many of your club members but nonequite so nice as yours. It is a real pleasure for a young radio man to get such a nice report. First I want to say that your listing are correct. I have a program now for your club members and it will start feb., 6th and the time is four in the morning. I hope you are able to listen to us. If you have anything that you want aired then just send it to me here at the station and I will be happy to put it on for you. The transmitter and studios of WYAL are located 2 mile west of Scotland Neck, N. C. and this is a very small farming community 90 miles west of Norfolk, Va. and 85 miles east of Raleigh, N.C. I am the engr., copywriter, announcer, and assistant manager, so you can see we have a very small staff. This is a very big disadvantage to us because we don't have the personell to really have a big station. The transmitter here is a Collins 21-A and is 22 years old. It doesn't give very much trouble. The tower is 188 feet tall. We have three disc jockeys including myself. One secretary, which is my wife. So you can see when we get a report such as yours it really makes all of us feel good. Again Iwant to say thanks and I hope you have a very good year with radio. Hoping to hear from you again real soon. If you are ever down our way drop by for a cup occoffee and a chat. I would be pleased to meet you. The best of 73's.

Mr Kermit Geary, R.F.D. #2, Walnutport, Pa.

Dear Kermit,

Was very happy to receive your interesting letter of 1-2-49. Was very disappointed however to hoar that you didnot receive my verification of your reception report on 4-5-48. Am very happy that I have tie privilege to confirm it personally at this time however. I do realize the importanceo of Broadcast Engineers full cooperation in matters of this kind due to the fact that I am both a B.C. Engineer and a "HAM.". My call is W4ORM.

Yours was the most ccmplete report I have received in some time. The morning of 1-2-49 I was on the ait. from 12:00 Midnight until shortly alter 4:00 AM. You evidently were not listening at that time as I have not received a report of that.(Have to get a little sleep I guess).

Of course I would like to verify the report of your reception on New Years Eve. It was correct in every detail with my log except that your sign off was 2:02 AM my log says sign off was at 2:03 AM. However we won't squabble over one minue as these Western Union cioilks we have are never right.

Best of luck to you on your DX activities and if we can be of further assistance to you and your cause please don't hesitate for one minute to call on us

Best of 73's and Dx to you,

f9red P. Jordan Chief Engineer ME Fayet t. eville, North Carolina IC3C SC P.O. BOX 3436 New Bern, N.C. 28560 (919) 633-0319
