Don't forget Canada! Here in New Hampshire, I get oldies at night on a few
clear-channel AM stations, mainly from Canada. You might be able to get
740 (CKWO) where you are.

That station is not oldies, it is nostalgia/standards. Very different
formats.

I don't agree with "very different" but let's assume that he doesn't like
their format. Still, I think he should scan the dial for what he likes.
I get oldies on that new station on 720 (CHTN), but he'll probably get
WGN. Conversely, he may get stations from the Western Provinces that
don't reach here.

New? CHTN has been on the air for decades, and protects WGN.

but he'll probably get
WGN. Conversely, he may get stations from the Western Provinces that

CHTN, now that 1190 is off the air, is the DXers best shot at PEI. It has
been heard well into the Midwest.

Not so different as you might think. CHWO has to play a lot of music
that's well outside the pop standards playlist, because very little
recorded standards music exists that meets CanCon. Like every other
Canadian station, CHWO must play at least 35% CanCon, and IIRC their
PD said that they actually committed in their conditions of license to
more than that. Yes, the formatics are very much AS in style, but the
playlist is significantly broader than that.
