One station. There are 4800 AM stations, About 5 make money from skywave
coverage, and most of the rest have reduced coverage at night due to
interference.


Thank the Bozo Reagan for that. Prior to the 1980s AM radio at night
was KILLER!


What killed skywave night radio reception was the proliferation of FMs in
local markets that offered similar formats without interference and with
better quality. It had nothing to do with Reagan. In fact, the only possible
detriment to skywave listening then was the 70's decision to break down the
1-A clear channels and to add 1-B stations to each (like KRVN in NE on 880,
WCBS's home).
