Heard mostly Spanish Music with Traffic Report and had a
Solid Blue Light {IBOC Signal Lock} for about 10 Minutes;
and then On and Off several times over the next 15 Minutes.

KLOK 1170 kHz - Audio Sound Notes :
* Male and Female Voices sounded OK {Natural}
* Music in Stereo was Very Good could easily tell when
the Digital Stereo Signal Dropped and the Sound was
again Mono-Audio only; the "AM" Digital Stereo did
have a better Audio 'Presence' to it.
