The old Channel 96.1 signal used to make it into Anderson County, but now it is drowned out by the 96.1 rock station out of Atlanta. But neither are listenable. Driving south on 85, the Charlotte signal will drop out at the Anderson county line and the Atlanta interference begins. I believe the old signal was more directional to the west, which may explain why the HD radio signal won't lock in anymore. But supposedly they plan to increase power on the HD signal in the summer. But the main Channel 96.1 signal is pretty good in most parts of Greenville County, along with 95.1.

It kinda doesn't make sense, the new signal should be a little 'stronger' since it's non-directional in most directions (except N, NE & E).
The old signal being a little more directional actually reduced power about 5% (out of their 100kw) towards the upstate,
so it really should've improved at least a little bit (like 5%), I guess we'll see if it does improve anymore.
