Good call on that revert, as a radio guy myself that reads as pure cruft. RegistryKey(RegEdit) 08:18, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

  • The mere fact it was invoking {{mexico-inf}}, which I created about a year ago to solve a problem with outdated references to Mexican broadcast technical information, caught my attention. It's a bit jarring to see a "K" at the front of the article invoking it (I'm expecting XEs and XHs all around!). Someone who lives in the DFW area can probably help here. I was looking at transclusions of the template because I had noticed someone was using it like the FCC query templates when it's actually an inline citation template.
I have no clue if the 99.9 is still running either. There's an LPFM application for the frequency in Balch Springs, which would ironically turn it into another Spanish station (the aspiring licensee's name is in Spanish). Raymie (tc) 08:23, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

XEOY-AM

Yes, please do take over my XEOY-AM page; I wasn't sure what further to do with it. I feel that it contained much more info than some other pages, but was still rejected. Thanks, and I will welcome seeing it when it is accepted.Rudy2alan 20:51, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Problem with DYK nomination for XEDK-TV

Hi. I see a major problem with your DYK nomination for XEDK-TV. In 1976, the station was not known as XEDK-TV; at that time, it had the older call letters XEHL-TV. If you can rework the hook in such a way as to make it accurate with respect to the station's call sign at the time mentioned in the hook, it might qualify for DYK; otherwise, I believe I'll have no choice but to reject the nomination. If you feel my objection to the existing hook is unjustified and that the nomination is OK as is, please discuss your views on the nomination page. — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 03:02, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

Deleted MfD

I saw that you already notified Jobava-Ro, so all should be well again. Samsara 20:07, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

It seems like his first language is Romanian. On rowiki there apparently is only one forum for deletion of all types of pages. Raymie (tc) 20:09, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello, it seems that Nulled keeps making edits like this or this or this. He is trying to link his article on Low temperature electrolysis in Electrolysis and Water splitting. Jobava-ro (talk page) 23:17, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Mexican FMs

Great job on the Mexican stations FM rebuild! I've been spending time on the Mexican AM (frequencies) - many are outdated, at least according to the IFT database.Rudy2alan 22:24, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks! It took me about five days on and off to rebuild all the pages. The largest problem with the AM lists is that some AM-FM migrants that have already seen their year of migration lapse (example: XEMU Piedras Negras) have been removed from the list but are still on AM. It's also worth noting that all but a few of the migrants have had their articles moved to the FM station location by page move. The rebuilt lists are actually current beyond the tables (the IFT licensed seven new FMs in May 2015, such as XHUHV-FM, and the last table revision is dated April 28). Raymie (tc) 22:38, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Mexican lists by channel number

Finally had the chance to go through and update all the channel number lists with the changes you've made to the state lists since early May. Let me know if you see any screw-ups! Mlaffs (talk) 16:44, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

I have about 20 more to add, actually, mostly in Guanajuato and Oaxaca (all added now). It's like detective sleuthing. The IFT tables haven't been updated in more than three months, so to find technical information on new digital stations requires searching the concessions registry and looking for such authorizations. And then we know some stations are on (like XHAOX, which is even promoting their new digital channel) but don't have reliable information or authorizations. I'm probably going to roll back the Ciudad Delicias Chih. Televisa ones I had listed because I think Televisa might have gone for different assignments under channel 38 (they are very repacking-minded). Also, I threw in a newly licensed station that has some news media coverage to prove its channel number and calls. Thanks for looking at some of the channel moves (XHBQ, XHCDO) related to repacking, too.
I do see some mistakes/general changes...
  • XHOPGA and XHOPTP are SPR stations. They do not use their analog channel number as a virtual channel as a rule (no station beginning with XHOP__ does!). They are 43.x and 42.x, respectively.
  • I wouldn't put XHGZG or XHGPV on the virtual channel list yet — I mean, look at XHGJG (analog 7, 25.x).
  • List XHHUC's location as Huixtla, not El Triunfo. El Triunfo is apparently the name of the microwave/transmitter site where the station is. It doesn't link, so Huixtla is more likely to yield results in search (I didn't know this until its digital auth appeared; I couldn't have told you why they assigned the XHHUC calls).

The First Twelve Months of Radio Broadcasting in Australia.

I was unaware of your recent book but have now had a look at the on-line copy. I suggest that you add your book to the list of references on the History of Broadcasting page.

The dates that I had for station openings were well documented in most well-known published sources. However, in most cases, you have only modified dates by a few days and I'm content. However, there is one thing that I have reverted, and that is that 2UE was originally known as 2EU, which stood for Stevenson's company name Electrical Utilities, but on air EU sounded like "Hey, You" and was quickly changed. I source for this has always been quoted.

Albert Isaacs (talk)

Hi there! Did you mean to reach out to someone else, perhaps @Rjensen? I mainly do radio article editing about Mexico. That said, it seems you are really working on improving the article. Best of luck, Raymie (tc) 23:58, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Rebuilding of Mexican AM lists

Thanks for the words of encouragement! I enjoy this, and I haven't had a better exchange with someone on Wikipedia than with you! BTW, I'm living in the Chicago area and have never been to Mexico, but I noticed that the Mexican sections on the frequency pages REALLY needed updating. Too bad that the HAAT for FM's doesn't seem to be available.Rudy2alan 13:47, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Just missed you!

I did that move Television stations in Michoacán just after you left IRC. I figured it was uncontroversial so no need to R a M. Cheers! delldot ∇. 03:40, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

@Delldot: Thank you! I am requesting a move in a case where there is some edit history for what was an old list on the books, at Television stations in Quintana Roo, and I also have a db-move on the one for Tamaulipas (more uncontroversial). Take a look at the Q. Roo one when I have it ready. Raymie (tc) 03:41, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

XEFB

Hello, Raymie - My latest project has been to add logos to radio station infoboxes. I'm curious whether any Mexican AM's are on your creation list. XEFB-AM on 630 kHz looks like an interesting station; nice webpage, logo (I think I found that on Logopedia) and it broadcasts with 10,000 watts day and night. It would have quite a good coverage area with that much power and at that low frequency even though it broadcasts on a regional frequency. I've put logos on most of the AM's at 1,000 kHz; take a look. Someone has uploaded better images of some of the logos I've put on the pages; that's fine with me!!Rudy2alan 18:13, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

I see that! As to the AMs, go ahead and do XEFB. It should have quite the history, as it spawned a TV station too (no longer co-owned as the AM is part of GRM). The concession history has some wildly old documents including one that specified operation at 1315 kHz! XEH is another long-running, historic AM; it is among the oldest stations in Mexico and also spawned its own FM station for a time in the 60s. Raymie (tc) 18:48, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Acknowlegment

Greetings. My name is Oscar León, and I'm grateful with the information.
The legal form I've been mentioned was existing since the Mexican TV was legalized by the government; but the idea of repeaters don't have a legal name; researching for the first concessions (I know that b'cos I've searched concession of Televisa). The information of those concessions wasn't open to the public by unknown reasons. In Guanajuato, for example, there's a XHL-TDT repeat, broadcasting in Channel 10 (Digital TV 23); however, instead of show “Canal de las Estrellas”, broadcast Televisa Regional channel. Another requirement imposed by IFT is have a conviavility if two digital channels broadcast side by side. That's all the information I've could collect. My resource: deducting based on the documents of the concessions. Thanks again, Oscar Zakumi León 2011 (talk) 18:50, 14 January 2016 (UTC).

Ya que pienso en la situación y en lo que he leído en los diversos foros...me acuerdo de ese equipo complementario. Algo parecido pasa en Saltillo. Merece inclusión en la lista. Raymie (tc) 20:22, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
