Daytime, KNX covers from northern San Diego County to mid-Riverside County
to Southern Ventura County.

At night, due to, first, skywave / groundwave cancellation, the groundwave
coverage is much less than that... and the skywave coverage is pretty much
ripped most of the time due to the Mexican stations that are now operating
on 1070, especially the one in Cd. Obregón Sonora.

Advertisers do not buy outside the local metro, so the coverage, what
there
is, outside LA and Orange County, counts for nothing to the business side
of
KNX.

You need a better radio.


Sorry, but that is the service area of the station. At night, the
skywave-groundwave cancellation zone hits around Redlands, Hemet, Fallbrook,
etc. and makes fringe reception very difficult. And beyond that the Mexican
co-channels rip it up.
