In the Midwest at night, try 760 WJR from Detroit and 890 WLS from
Chicago -- both 50,000-watt AM Stereo stations with nighttime coverage
that extends for hundreds of miles. (Yes, despite the ill-named
thread here, WJR continues to broadcast in full AM Stereo to this day,
as do hundreds of other stations around the world.)



Thanks for that info.

p.s. If your receiver has never triggered into Stereo mode on the AM
band, are you sure it truly has AM Stereo capability? More than a few
people have been fooled by ambiguously-labeled "FM/AM Stereo"
receivers which are actually only Stereo on the FM band. Check the
receiver list on the aforementioned web site to make sure yours is
listed.


It's the Sony ST-JX520A, which is listed as being an AM Stereo tuner
on at least one of the AM Stereo web sites.
