[BC] Legal ID Question

[Bailey, Scott]

Scott,

    I've had the impression it was to be ran as close to the top of the
hour as possible, at a natural break in programming.  We are on
Satellite with Dial Global (was WW1), so ours runs at :59:50. To me,
that's the way it should be!
    What we done at WQQK (this was back in 1989-1990), we did the legal
I.D. live, out of the :49 stopset. It was "92Q is WQQK,
Hendersonville-Nashville, in to another hour of power jams, 92Q". Then
the music was time out, where we would hit the top of the hour at :00,
and we played a recorded liner that said Power Jams, 92Q, WQQK,
Nashville. I don't call that top of the hour liner a legal I.D., since
WQQK is licensed to Hendersonville, TN.

Scott

There is no ":56-:04" window in the rule, as codified.

Don't believe me? Read the rule...

:50 would be perfectly legal if it's followed by a long symphonic 
movement, for instance.
