When did it die, gringa? Please tell us.


You are such a moron.


Can't tell us, gringa? I thought not.


Ad hominem aside, there has not been any significant usage of night skywave
AM radio since TV took over as the provider of night time entertainment to
America. Then, when FM took over the majority position in audience int he
mid-70's, there was not enough AM listening at night to worry about even in
the local home market.

Technical regulations based on now non-existent needs are arcane and
antiquated. And other countries in this Hemisphere show that US spacing
requirements are also unreasonable. AM radio regulation in the US is about
20 years behind the times.
