Hi Dave,monitoring KFI right now 1851 on friday 5.
I am in Oxnard and KFI has a very heavy fade, very unusal for the
station at anytime.
I was not aware the they turned on the new tourch.

I always used the sync detector or SSB ECSS to listen to it, so the
fading was much less an issue. Since you have to get both sidebands to
cancel out the IBOC, I can't use sync detection, because my SW2, just
like a Sony 2010, can only sync to one sideband at a time.

Luckily, KKOH 780 comes in great at night, and they don't have IBOC.
Same for KGO 810.


I haven't tried KFI with the DSB SyncDet on the E1 yet, usually listen during
the day when their HD signal eliminates the hiss, between QSB induced HD loss.
What time of the evening does KGO turn off their HD-IBOC jammer?
I usually listen to Ray Taliaferro overnight on the Icom on USB without problem.

Being a Citadel station, it only uses IBOC during daylight hours, to
avoid jamming other Citadel stations after dark (where they rule North
America, pretty much.) Ray T. does a good show. We need more live and
local. Can you get KOA 850?
