That seems odd because both stations broadcast from the same place (the antenna cluster on top of the Empire State Building). The station I want to hear (93.9) has an effective power of 5,400 watts and the interfering station's (95.5) is 6,700.

Does this seem like a situation where the one is likely to overwhelm the other, especially considering that they're not exactly neighbors on the dial? As a general matter, is it normal for a tuner to pick up separate frequencies when tuned to one?
