Best reception is, of course, at night. But.... for some reason WABC (New

loud but extremely distorted then will be loud and clear for a while.


More than likely, you are getting interference between the ground wave
and the sky wave as the strength and path of the sky wave varies with
atmospheric conditions. I don't know of a cure. I sometimes have the
same problem with the same radio tuned to WTAW, 40 miles away.
