Unless they have added a lot in the last 3 or 4 years, WRTH's domestic MW
listings are pathetic*. White's Radio Log is long gone, unfortunately, so Dave's best bet is to contact the "National Radio Club" which specializes in BCB DX (until BPL and digital take care of that). Run NRC through Google, Dave, they have a large web presence. *example starting at the low end: WRTH lists 2 stations on 550 kHz. A very old (1975) pattern book from NRC lists 22 US stations. -- Crazy George Remove N O and S P A M imbedded in return address "Richard Clark" wrote in message ...

Hi George, 84 pages of double column listings is pathetic? Compared to what? I see 14 US stations listed for 550KHz not 2: KENI KQY KUZZ KRAI WDUN KFRM KUSA KBOW WGR KFYR WKRC KOAC WJMW KCRS On a casual glance, the shortest listing for any AM frequency has 10 stations and the longest listing has 44 (and it is hard to tell if it is the longest because there are so many of apparent equal length - in at least 25 frequencies). You are looking in the United States country listing for large stations. The comprehensive coverage for all AM stations is found in the back. Quite a difference! 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |
