A QSL for my reception of WMLB 1690 Avondale Estates, or WMLB 1690 AM Atlanta as this is what they themselves advertise. My first QSL for an AM broadcaster from the state of Georgia! I received a ‘simulcast’ of a program from WCPT, with the WMLB station ID on the hour:
As the WRTH provided links to WCPT Heartland Signal sites only I left a message on their website. Rodney Gibbs, General Manager confirmed my reception report. He states that they recently launched the station and are preparing to add local programming soon:
As far as I know WMLB 1690 is not (yet) owned by Heartland Signal. The FCC licensee is still John Fredericks’ Disruptor Radio, LLC.
Most of the news talk stations I have received so far voice a conservative opinion (like WXKS for example). Heartland Signal however brings a progressive voice. The format is “live, local & progressive”: discussions with activisten, journalists and politicians from the MidWest, with news from the digital newsdesk of Heartland Signal.
Great site. Good to see so much interest in marine radio monitoring. I’m just getting into DSC, and cannot find a guide to the three-digit symbols on line 2 of DSC messages. Could you guide me toward enlightenment? Thank you!
Hi Michael, thank you. I’m not an expert in DSC protocols. But this ITU document should explain it all. You can go to the ITU site and search for document M.493 or use this link:

Hi Peter (again)
I see that you have heard WMLB and also got a QSL from them, I just heard them but I can not find a mail address, perhaps you can help?
Best regards
