Why is it that I can received WCBS @ 880kc fairly well at night but WABC @
770kc suffers from phase distortion like you wouldn't believe! (I'm about
175 miles from both transmitters.) They are both 50 kwatt stations. And why
is it that both WBZ (Boston), WBT (Charlotte, NC), WJR (Detroit) and WBBM
(Chicago) come in better than either of the New York City stations?

WBZ in Boston is a clear channel station. I don't think they
have any pattern restrictions; they run 50kw 24/7.
