Copper Theft and Transmitter Damage Silence KFTI, by Lance Venta,
January 27 2026

Summit Media’s “Classic Country 1070” KFTI Wichita KS has been off the
air since January 16 following significant damage to its transmission
facilities. A filing with the FCC states that KFTI’s tower array was
damaged because of theft of copper components, compromising the ground
system and related infrastructure, while its transmitter experienced
substantial equipment failures and requires extensive repairs and
replacement of multiple components before operation can be restored.

KFTI, which utilizes Westwood One’s 24/7 Country programming,
continues to stream online. The station registered a 0.9 share in the
November 2025 Nielsen Audio ratings.

INSTANT INSIGHT: Nowhere on the station’s website does KFTI explain to
listeners that it is off the air. It also has no social media platform
where to inform listeners of how to find them as once again radio
attempts to just push its audience away`` Yet to check in daytime for
any other signal or KFTI resumed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

``ENGINEERING STATEMENT:

This Engineering Statement has been prepared to support an application
for modification and extension of Special Temporary Authority 0000269423,
for Radio Station KKOB, 770 kHz, Albuquerque, NM, licensed to Radio
License Holding CBC, LLC, which expires on October 15, 2025.

Because of the imminent dismantling of the remaining antenna tower at
the licensed site of KKOB, Special Temporary Authority is requested to
operate from a temporary site located at NL 35 04 04.5 by WL 106 46 46.8.
This antenna tower is 196 feet tall (above ground) and because of its
height is not registered in the Commission’s Antenna Structure
Registration System.

Operation is proposed with 1.0 kW day and night. The antenna tower will
be fed with a single flared skirt wire. The Inverse Distance Field has
been approximately determined by NEC4 calculation to be 197.75 mV/m/km
for 1 kW operation. The antenna will also be provided with 6 to 8 “ground”
radials extending to at least 100 feet from the tower base.

The tower supports the FM transmitting antenna of KABQ-FM and the
auxiliary antennas of KABQ-FM, KYLZ-FM, and KBQI-FM. A nearby antenna
tower is the location of the main antenna for KYLZ-FM. There are no
nearby licensed AM broadcast facilities. The tower base is enclosed by a
fence which is 4 meters or more from the structure, exceeding the
requirement of Supplement A to OET-65. If necessary measurements will be
made at the time of installation to determine the ground level E and H
fields of the FM facilities outside the fenced area.

tune in late to WRMI with RAE relay in Portuguese, as `Atualidade DX`
is already in progress. BTW, why is this aimed at Oklahoma instead of
Brasil? I`ve previously caught it on a Friday as well as a Tuesday. I
recognize some of the DX `news` items as heard before from them, but
not the same as earlier this week. Mali on 5995, Kyrgyzstan on 4010,
Sri Lanka 125 kW in Bengali at 0030-0230, 11905 at 1630-1830 on 11750
in Sinhala --- both of which have been OFF SW for quite some time.
Also gave email addresses to contact each station. 2307 some other
media news, like the AER website for SW skeds; CNN Argentina on FM in
General Roca, something about cell phones in Perú. Venezuela, thousand
layoffs at stations? And credits DX.com.ar and Arnaldo Slaen. Later I
try that website and get this: titled ``Acceso Extranet`` but nothing
on the page except fields for user name and password to log in, no
further info about what it is or how to get them. Another browser
warns: ``Website blocked due to riskware -- because it may contain
malicious activity.``!! Finally plugging an upcoming DX meeting in
Pernambuco on Fri/Sat/Sun March 10-11-12 --- that can`t be 2026! and
then they let slip that it`ll be in **2023**!!! So another 3-year-old
DX olds program from RAE. Don`t you believe it. NÃO ACREDITE NISSO.

nothing to do with RAE re-broadcasting such outdated stuff from him. I

decommissioned in 2019 but still transmitting, last report 2026-01-18.
Calhoun is in NW GA, just south of Dalton along I-75 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2332 monitoring: confirmed Friday
January 30 at 2302 the2300 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed Friday January 30 at 2352 the 2330 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, 3975.002, S7/S8 JBA into UTwente.

Not confirmed UT Sat Jan 31 at 0400 on WTWW 5085, as it remains
totally off the air. However I was informed that 2332 was ready to
play should it be on.

Confirmed Saturday January 31 at 1553 the 1530 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, into UTwente: 3975.001 S8/S9 and 6160.001+ S9/+10.

Also confirmed Saturday January 31 at 1630 on WRMI 9955, S9/+20 into
Knoxville SDR.

Also confirmed Saturday January 31 at 1700 on WRN via WRMI 9395,
S7/9+10 into Knoxville SDR; rough start again, ``Welcome to
Encore...`` before pause and play WOR.

Also confirmed Saturday January 31 at 1718 the 1700 on WRN via WRMI
7730, S7/S8 into Miramar FL SDR - after NO signal direct nor into
several other remotes in SE USA. 7730 is always VP if not JBA here to
the NW as it`s aimed NE; but so is 15770, easily heard. Is Miramar
getting 7730 by direct/groundwave? Approx. distance 149 km = 93 miles
to the SSE of Okee. It`s surely too clear and loud to be backscatter.

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, UT Sat Jan 31 at 0055, via
Maryland, Vermont SDRs, NO signals on 3265, 5130, 6160, 9330, ONLY on
7490. Still so at 0126 check. FKB`s tone cue wrapup warning comes not
a minute, but half a minute before 0100:00, so he is chopped for
canned ID before he can finish his contact info. NO advisory that
following aired originally, but it *is* a rerun of UT Jan 10, since
Allan talx over theme at first, ``Absolutely amazing this radio thing
that we do...`` and single-word exclamation later, ``blaze``? Never
mind; see my report of that date (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (12160), Sat Jan 31 at 1800, this WWCR remains off the air,
and also 13845, but stream is working for WWCR-2 with the `Talking
[sic] Machine Show` of ancient music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2015 UT January 31

** COLOMBIA. 6010, Jan 30 at 0725, Spanish S7/S8, so it`s LV de tu
Conciencia, not R. Inconfidência, Brasil also on 6010. I don`t think
it`s really on the air overnight, so if not sure of language don`t
assume it`s Brasil at this hour. However, EiBi shows Brasil 24h and
slightly offset to 6010.1; Colombia ``test`` at 2200-1000. Aoki also
shows Brasil 24h, but totally misses Colombia, instead on 6010 the
imaginary XEOI México which has been gone for years. WRTH 2026 also
has Brasil 24h (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 30 at 0726, R. Rebelde is off now tho often on and
even modulating. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, 15140, 11880, 11760, Jan 30 at 2014 check, no signals
from RHC in English or anylang. Power outage? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 11965, Jan 30 at 2013, S9/+25 gospel huxter in English,
MWV could almost pass for a N American station (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Jan 30 at 0724, African music and French?, S8/S9,
better than usual this late. Bamako sunrise now at its latest during
the year 0658 UT, and varies little at 12.65 degrees north, to 0612 in
summer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 550, Jan 30 at 0733, romantic song in Spanish, unusual on
this frequency; as I tune in, fades up better with full ID including
street address, and 25 kW on 91.3, in Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua.
Interesting background info in the IRCA Mexican Log:

``550 XEPL Chih Ciudad Cuauhtémoc 5000 150 91.3 La Líder, La Súper
Estación, Tu Mejor Compañía 1100-0800 VAR/IND -- //XHEPL 91.3FM.
Staying on AM per IFT. Active
on AM as of 2/25 (logged by DXer), but may be operating
intermittently. Station confirmed 7/23 that the AM was on. German
Mennonite and native language programs in the evenings. During this
programming they sometimes give five 800 Hz time pips shortly after
the top of the hour. The current (8/20) schedule on the station's web
site lists a broadcast day of 1100-0800, with Mennonite programming in
the evenings (6:50pm-11pm local time). Still included in 7/25 IFT
list`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 12030, Jan 30 at 2010 check, REE air is not dead, but very
weak, better on 9690, best on 17715 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR0

** U S A. 15380, Jan 30 at 1545, S9+25/35 of open carrier, 250 kW GB
warming up for R. Martí from 1600. Is it really necessary to burn at
least 62.5 kWh every day with no modulation? Occasional beeps, from
else? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15150, Fri Jan 30 at 1256, WMLK on already, S9+25/30
attempting to sing with piano. EiBi shows 12-17 except Sat, only
station on 15150. Don`t you believe Aoki showing outdated sked of
04-09 UT except Sat. It and 15770 WRMI now are the OSOB (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12160 & 13845 & 7490, Jan 30 at 1547, WWCR still totally off
the air. Also at 2010 no 12160 or 13845 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 820, re my report of WWBA Largo FL QRMing WBAP, Tim Hall
replies:
``Just 5 minutes before reading your email I found a relog of WWBA on
this year's Border Inn recordings. At the time of my DXpedition (end
of October), they had just renewed their STA for U1 2000/200 at the
site of co-owned WHBO-1040. They've had this STA for years so I would
bet it is still in effect. Both WWBA-820 and WHBO-1040 (which also has
had a low-power STA for several years) get out surprisingly well. I
have to wonder if both stations might be running their non-directional
STA day powers all night. 73 Tim`` Hard for me to believe this be only
2 kW vs 50 kW WBAP (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN [and non]. VR, Jan 30 at 1551 direct on 13830 S9+20/25 //
and synch with 15565 S9+20/30, on two receiver, NRD-545 and DX-398.
I`m standing by for the ~1600 transition from Amharic to Swahili, and
for 13830 to switch from SMG to MADAGASCAR relay, making them out of
synch. At 1559 ID, ``LIX`` and IS. At 1559.5, 13830 cuts off and soon
comes back much weaker S8/S9 with a delay. But 15565 also suddenly
weakens tho no break perceived. It switches antenna beam slightly from
139 to 149 degrees which should not make that much difference (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 24960 USB, Jan 30 at 2016, bunch of hams in QSOs for
Parks On The Air, a sub-thing. Nothing happening on 28+ MHz (Glenn
