The last figure ( after the second colon ) is the transmission range of the station. 100000 is worldwide.

Please see tedhealy's posts for more details.
So, negative longitude means West and negative latidute means south, that means in the mentioned example 34 degrees North and 118 degrees West? So that would be Los Angeles, is that correct?

And the range (100000), is this in miles or kilometers?
