Nice MW catch (for me) last night.
 
Last night I heard WCBS 880 AM out of New York on my car radio. This was at
about 0630 UTC. Some commercials, and then a newsreading. Identifying call
sign. I was also getting WTAM 1100 AM out of Cleveland, but that is usual
for me.

Kind of cool that the WCBS signal was reaching Whitewater, Wisconsin last
night.

On the other hand, there are those who are totally irritated that the WCBS
signal is getting out at all. ;-)
