The fact is that they may seem strong to you, but they are not
considered
listenable by nearly everyone else or there would be vastly more
listening
nationally outside the named contours and there is not.


The signals are strong. Anyone but you would agree that they are strong
signals except for you.


They are not strong enough based on the field strength and the criteria that
millions of diarykeepers for the ratings have shown us. It does not matter
what you think. What matters is whether local listeners use those signals,
and they do not.


Yep, that is what the listeners say via their behaviour... signals below
the
strength I mentioned are more subject to noise, harder to tune, etc. So
they
don't listen.


No I disagree. It must be content not the ability to get a noise free
signal. So it looks like you never made it up here.


There is considerable workplace listening to LA stations by commuters who
live in Ventura county and work closer to the LA stations. The fact that
they listen where the signal is stronger and not where it is not pretty
conclusively shows that what you consider a "strong" signal is not.
