And again I'm not talking about weak signals. Strong signals that are
picked up with no background noise on a PORTABLE RADIO with its INTERNAL
antenna. The table top radios were just used as a reference because it
has a signal strength meter.

The fact is that they may seem strong to you, but they are not considered
listenable by nearly everyone else or there would be vastly more listening
nationally outside the named contours and there is not.

The fact that you can hear a station does not mean any local listeners
will
tune to it. That is because what may be easy for you to tune, and of
acceptable strength, is not for nearly everyone else. Whether it is New
York
or Florida or Texas or Puerto Rico, carefully tabulated diary returns
show
where listening takes place, and it is almost entirely inside the named
contours.

I don't much time listening to weak signals. I don't care for putting up
with noise.

Yep, that is what the listeners say via their behaviour... signals below the
strength I mentioned are more subject to noise, harder to tune, etc. So they
don't listen.

And you think you can solve all these problems with your colloidal
silver?
