They didn't ask the listeners and they did not listen to the
stations that have good regional coverage.

All 25 or 30 of them? Most of those stations, perhaps nearly all,
do not care about anything except the strongest groundwave
coverage areas.

One would be enough but the number is a lot more than 25 to 30.

No, it is actually not. You are perhaps missing the point that radio
markets are not single cities or even counties. Chicago is an 11
county metro, for example. Very few signals cover it all. Only a
couple get any significant listening outside the metro, either...
despite pretty good coductivity there.

So there are really only a handful of staitons by day, on AM, that
cover adequately outside their radio market. And at night, there are
even fewer due to interference, directionality, and the fact that AM
is only listened to lightly at night demonstrates this.

The number is basically the 25 former 1-As, plus a handful of the old
1-Bs. No former regionals get any really useful skywave, as the
channels are too crowded. And some of the 1-As are chewed up at night
by other stations, like KFI and KNX do to the East of the LA market.

Snip

You are full of crap. KFI and KNX come in just fine here at night. I
also regularly listen to KKOH out of Nevada, KOGO San Diego, KGO in San
Francisco to name a few. I'm beginning to think you don't live in LA
when you post this crap. They all come in well on a portable radio I
hold in my hand so drop the jealousy act over my table top radios.

You do not seem to know what can be picked up on the West coast at all.
You seem to get your information from the Internet instead of actually
listening to a radio. You are a real nut job pretender. How can you not
know about the reception I get if you live in LA? I can only conclude
you are full of crap and that you don't live in LA or anywhere on the
West coast.
