This station, on a clean channel, covers most of California with a very
listenable signal, with only 10 KW days, 1 KW night. Why? Because the
frequency doesn't have too many stations on it. Greed killed AM radio,
along with the rest of the former USA.

Former? As far as I know, you drug addled 'tard, the USA is still an ongoing
concern.

As for KGED, they have apparently been heard in South Africa, quite a feat.

That's because you live in the bubble. By any objective definition the

doesn't get clobbered with those fat-assed IBOCs
and we can still have some DXing fun up there.


"Some have proposed to use HD Radio in the daytime and AM Stereo at
night. Many HD radios are based on a common chipset that decodes C-
QUAM."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_stereo

"Some users have reported that these radios decode the C-QUAM signal
with the channels flipped around (left in the right, right in the
left). Later revisions of the Accurian radio removed this feature, but
a representative from Sangean stated that they have no plans to remove
it."

The only problem is that there is an amazingly small part of the total radio
audience that uses AM at night. And, of itself, 7-Midnight listening to
radio is about a third of the daytime levels...

Radio audiences and radio advertising are all concentrated in the 6 AM to 7
PM hours. Since radio is a business, we have to focus on the times when some
economic benefit can be derived, or we go out of business and have to sell.

I can't think of a single successful x-band station... they all seem to be
sold over and over, moved around the country or being victims of format
shifts quite frequently.

Argentina was smart... they allowed multiple X-band stations on each channel
in the immense Buenos Aires metro, and that is where the religious
broadcasters and the ethnic broadcasters (there is a station just for
Bolivians) have gone.

Several of these have been heard in the USA, before the domestic X Banders
were all built out.

Presently in the State of California there are no AM/MW
Radio Stations in the Extended AM/MW Radio Band
that are Broadcasting in IBOC according to iBiquity.

You said yourself you only survey people who live in metro areas, so how
can you speak with any kind of authority regarding how us hillbillies use
the radio?

I was talking to my friend Pat Martin yesterday (a biggie in the DX
field),
and he told me about that. Apparently, KGED is using him for thier
reception
report manager. That is quite a feat, indeed. I have yet to hear anything
at
all in the X-band here in Korea.. but if I'm going to hear anything, it
would be a station like KGED. Maybe I'll go on a DX-pedition to the east
coast one of these days with my E1XM and Grundig Satellit 700.


Good luck! Here at least, in the heartland of the USA, TA/TP dx is pretty
much
non-existent other than the occasional het from Algeria or whatever.

The band of course is awash with signals, so it would be very interesting
from
some foreign land, especially if one understands English. A plethora of
stations
to spend a lifetime dx'ing.



I'm hoping that I can find a decent place to DX from. At this place, the
only US station I can hear is WWVH, and that only on rare occasions on 5 and
10 MHz. That, and occasional VOA signals, but I'm pretty sure those are
coming from a nearby relay.

I don't survey. Arbitron does. And if you are anywhere in LA County, you are

Unfortunately, about half of all stations have not made money since the

Yes, you did find one. The station is #3 in billing in the market, and is
installing HD this month, per the web page.

Turns out there are more... KOZN in Omaha, WEUP in Huntsville, WJRO in
Monroe, KRZI in Waco and WQLR in Kalamazoo.

6 successful ones out of 53 X Band stations.

Communications Act for the purpose of “regulating interstate and foreign
