Curious to see how far some of the local (NYC) 50 kilowatt mw stations can
be heard with regularity and/or if they have been heard very far away from
time to time...

Anyone outside the area please respond with comment and location.

660 WFAN

Lost in the splatter of one of the local sport babblers.


710 WOR

I can make out a carrier on most nights. Sometime it punches through. It's
adjacent to WGN, which is very strong here.


770 WBC

Reception similiar to WOR, but this one's right next to WBBM.


880 WCBS

Easy catch most nights, despite being next to WLS.


1010 WINS

I get a carrier sometime, but it's next to one of the other sport babblers.
I assume the carrier is from CFRB. CFRB came in quite well when the old
WCFL shut down every week early on Monday morning. I've nulled out AM 1000
with a loop antenna and also received CFRB.


1050 WEVD

Whatever's between WHO and KYW is unlistenable. I suppose it's them and
CHUM fighting it out.


1130 WBBR

Don't know.


1560 WQEW

Don't know.

I live in the Chicago area. For whatever reason, many of the New York
allocations are right next to the Chicago allocations. It's not always easy
to hear NY stations here, even though the night time distance isn't much by
AM broadcast band standards.
