Only those stations, like KOA, will be fully
competitive because they cover the market. the rest willhave to figure
out
niche or brokered options to survive.


Just as an aside, when I was 19 and living in Casper, WY, there was no
local
station that I could stand to listen to for more than a few minutes at a
time. I worked for the local CATV company as an installer. Their trucks
had
no radios in them, so I was stuck with bringing my own. What I could
afford
was an old off brand 6 transistor pocket radio that I could leave on the
dashboard as I drove around. My station of choice as I went about my
workday? KOA. Loud and clear. Great daytime coverage, that.



Doesn't matter -- David says you don't exist. :-)


That is not skywave coverage, as Brenda Ann mentioned. Today, with computer
noise, ignition noise, dimmers, and all manner of other items, the daytime
coverage that was useful in the 60's is significantly reduced by RFI.
