[NJARC] Who's on 1640?

[Al Klase]

Hi Ed,

Very interesting.  The FCC shows nobody licensed on 1640 in NJ.  I tuned 
in the frequency, but WNYC - 820's antenna, 2.6 miles away, is bore 
sighted on my house in Jersey City, and I'm hearing their second 
harmonic (1640) loud and clear.

Google "1640 am New Jersey "  Apparently 1640 is a hotbed of activity 
for both legal (FCC Part 15) and pirate stations.  Many of the outlets 
also stream their signals on the web.  For example Ironbound Radio 
<http://www.ir1640amradio.com/> in Newark.

The bottom of this page makes specific reference to The Jersey Shuffle 
on 1640: http://www.angelfire.com/nj2/piratejim/pirate.html

Good listening,
Al
