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.


The way I look at it is that is does not matter what you think. Your
data or thinking is flawed.


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.


Yeah, I live and work in Ventura and I listen to those LA stations so I
know and you continue to speculate. I don't listen in the workplace
because it is not appropriate. I do listen at home in the car and in
parks with a portable radio.
