How 'bout this...while you're in Ohio, stations to the east are changing
patterns, etc, and maybe it's just a drop in interference TO WFAN, not an in
crease in their level. Then again...maybe...

Why, like clockwork, does WFAN 660 NYC, received 500 miles west in
Central Ohio, fade away at (nowadays) 6am and later come back
strong for another hour? They're strong again like a local at
almost 7am now, for instance.

Not just a random once-in-a-while thing, but regularly.

My guess is that it must be a switch in the height of the reflecting
layer somehow, but I can't construct a really consistent picture.

MW always reflects, but the attenuation varies at lower levels with
solar angle, sun killing off the reflected signal.

It's not ``grey line'' because that path is nowhere near the direction
involved.
