WBZ is a times as strong or stronger than KDKA's groundwave in their local area. This is not debatable. WBZ hash can be heard under KDKA most nights. You are saying that WBZ is stronger (I assume you mean "at night") in Allegheny, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Washington and Westmoreland counties of Pennsylvania than KDKA? Those 6 counties are the only market area that KDKA is interested in. Similarly, I doubt that KDKA interferes with WBZ in Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Plymouth, Suffolk, Worcester and Hillsborough counties, the Boston MSA or, as you say, "market area." Since WBZ is directional westward, it's not likely they will have any interference of significance. Heck, every AM gets occasional interference; I recall numerous times hearing Venezuela on 1-A Clear Channel 1100 in early evenings over WKYC (now WTAM) even though I was about 12 miles from the WTAM transmitter. That's one of the reasons AM has so little appeal to the generations that grew up on FM... interference, noise, static, lousy audio quality. |

" Rochester Station Says IBOC Interferes" Bob Savage, CEO, WYSL "WYSL has filed FIVE separate pleadings including two detailed interference studies, over a period of 19 weeks encompassing a variety of local weather conditions, in all three antenna modes and powers, reply pleadings to two CBS responses (notably thin on data and highly implausible) including scores of field readings and audio recordings on CD. All of WYSL's data is supported by engineering statements from TWO unimpeachable professional radio engineering firms representing many decades of experience, all submitted UNDER OATH. One of these engineers is renowned as an experienced researcher in the development of terrestrial digital radio. All in all, including exhibits, over 100 pages of text and measurement data were filed with the Enforcement Bureau with copies to the Mass Media Bureau. The FCC's response to this mountain of persuasive data? They simply ignored it." http://tinyurl.com/cdybql |

" Rochester Station Says IBOC Interferes" Bob Savage, CEO, WYSL WYSL is not a Rochester station. It is a far suburban station trying, with horribly low power at night, to cover a market beyond it's ability to cover, with or without HD on a distant station. |

They can certainly tell the difference between AM and FM. That is why nearly nobody under 50 or 55 listens to AM. |

How do you know the 30-somethings aren't merely avoiding your surveyors at the mall or on street corners. Maybe people who listen to AM radio don't go to the mall. |
