Anyone outside the area please respond with comment and location.


Hi Michael:

In all cases below, the comment "check" means that I can hear the
station listenably clear (there may be distortion/interference), and I
either got voice ID or I have it logged as the only station I have
received on that frequency on an average night. I am in the SW corner
of Michigan, Icom R-75, 110' longwire.



660 WFAN Mets game Stronger signal than the Portland stations

Check


710 WOR Call in show Moderate strength

Check



770 WBC Talk show (Laura Ingram?) Fair signal, fading

Check



880 WCBS Yankee game Poorsignal, fading

Check (easy one)



1010 WINS Another talk show. Poor signal. Maybe local interference

Talk show, very weak signal, yes.



1050 WEVD Nada


Weak, conflicted, but playing the old Bruce Chanel song "Hey Baby".
Have logged WEVD here before.



1130 WBBR Nada

Fair, listenable but "fadey" signal. Seemingly a news station like
WBBM in Chicago. Commercial for a business "located in the Empire State
Building." Strongly implies New York! I have logged WBBR here several
times.




1560 WQEW Someone's doing some preaching, but it may be a Maine
station. Moderate signal strength.


Gettting three signals at once here.
