writes: Useful daytime AM service is generally limited to a radius of no more than about 100 miles (162 km), even for the most powerful stations. The FCC apparently didn't take areas with high soil conductivity into consideration when they wrote this. Here in South Dakota, strong AM daytime signals propagate for 200 or more miles. KFYR, WNAX, KSDN, KFGO, KSJB, etc. are all examples of this. And these stations are only putting out 5,000 watts. Over in the Black Hills, KBHP runs 25,000 watts on 810 and can easily be heard up and down I-29 on the opposite side of the state. That's 300-350 miles from the transmitter. But that's okay. We're used to being ignored by the bureaucrats in Washington, DC :-) |
