Yes -- it (then-WCKY) was strong in eastern and central Missouri
for a couple of hours after sunset until the switch was flipped.

The reference to reverb is amusing -- in the early 1970s I recall
WCKY as an easy-listening station -- with reverb! Mix in a little
groundwave/skywave phase cancellation, which one occasionally got
for WCKY near St. Louis, and you got quite the ethereal effect!

That's only the *second* most inappropriate use of reverb I've ever
heard -- the most inappropriate was when KPRC in Houston
was a news/talk station in head-on competition with KTRH -- and
used reverb in 1985 and part of 1986!
