1210 AM Signal Problem

Personally, I heard your station. While it is admirable you made it fit, It's a pip squeak in comparison.

The WFYL 5 mv/m contour covers 385,000 persons. The WFIL contour of the same intensity covers 4,862,000 listeners and KYW covers 4,357,000 and WPHT covers 4,496,000. In each of the last three cases, the station covers more than 12 times the population covered by WFYL.

When this one was sold in 1995, it went for $18,000 or a little less at that time than a Honda Accord, nicely equipped.

Hopefully, it provides some local or distinct programming to King of Prussia... the only area it covers at all well.
 
I'd rather have a daytime AM kilowatt in K of P than work for someone else in Philly. The independant broadcasters are American Dream heros. Go get 'em 1180, and 740, and 1370, and 1460, and 1360, and 690.

We all haven't drunk the "big city" Kool Aid.
