Station WJCR (shortwave) - Millerstown, USA.
Last programming carried: WJIE
Based on the following information received from Adrian Peterson, we
appear to have the incorrect site coordinates listed in the most recent
version of our Excel File for this former SW broadcaster.
Adrian provides the following very helpful information:
"A week or two back, while en route south from Indianapolis into Kentucky
& Tennessee, I took the opportunity to make another visit to the SW
station WJCR. I met the son of the founder who is today the manager of the
facility down there. The FM station is still on the air under the original
callsign WJCR. The SW facility has been off the air for some time, and it
is owned by WJIE in Louisville.
To get to the SW station WJCR, the directions are as follows:- Take Hwy 65
south, turn right west at Upton exit onto Hwy 224, turn left south onto
Hwy 1140 East in Millerstown, turn right onto Leon Srygler Rd, and the
station is at the end of this short road.
On the recent occasion of my visit to SW WJCR-WJIE, the weather was wet,
windy, cold and rainy. Because of this, I did not take any photos, at
least not on this occasion. Yes, the antennas are still standing. They are
two rhombics, running out approximately west from the transmitter
building. They are not impressive, just simply wire running on tall
telephone poles."
Ian's comments:
It not totally clear to me as to where this road ends. based on looking at
maps with
I can speculate that the txer building might be somewhere around one of
four sites:
