Evening listening, by the end of the 1955, was down to about 1/4 of the
daytime radio listening levels. While there are no national figures,
looking at a variety of local market reports supports this conclusion.

Add in the explosion of new stations in the decade after W.W. II, there
was less reason to listen to non-local stations at any time, and little
reason to listen to them at night.

That's nuts. Everybody routinely listened to whatever came in on their
radios at night, regardless of origin.

Light dimmers, band-splitting, coarse digital tuners, and 4 kHz
ceramic filters destroyed AM.

Don't you think it odd that you and your ilk whined for more stations
back in the '70s, and now that you have them, you whine 'cause nobody
can make any money?
