AM Frequency of the week-810khz

That's interesting because I heard KCBS on Oahu several years ago. Not strong, but in there, but I couldn't get KGO.

Back to 810 --- there are some very interesting things going on in Houston daytime -> late afternoon in Houston. During the middle of the day, there appear to be two very weak stations competing. I assume one is KYTY from San Antonio. The second might be XERI from Raynosa. But - as the sun began to set, a very strong religious station started coming in. I can speculate WSJC from Magee, MS, because of the format. But with just brokered religious programming, I heard no local content or ID. They shut down their 50kW signal, of course, before it got too late.

810 here is a religious station from St. George, SC, about 50 miles or so NW from my listening post. It was WQIZ for a long time, local religion, then was bought by a local Catholic owner who simulcast their 730 AM signal. They sold it a couple months ago to a local St. George company who has a religious FM in the area, WWOS, and now simulcasts it on the AM.

I've never gotten Freeport or Orlando here on 810. When the St. George signal is off, one of those two signals tries to come in. At night, no signal dominates the frequency.

Warminster PA(Philly 'burbs):

Daytime: zippo, maybe a trace of WYRE Annapolis, MD
Night: WGY

From Foley, Alabama, about 14 miles north of the Gulf:

Day: Nothing. Slop from 800 WSJO New Orleans and 820 WWBA Tampa is not uncommon. Both are saltwater path signals to this area on a good radio.
Evenings: Sometimes WCKA "Alabama 810" pipes in from the Anniston, AL area.
Night: WHB Kansas City is the most regular, but usually it's nothing specific.

Here in Derby, England, UK

Nothing* during the day, BBC Radio Scotland pretty clear at night.

Unlike England, Scotland doesn't have BBC local radio, just one station for the whole country. It uses high power AM transmitters and easily reaches well into England at night.



* A good receiver will get a weak radio Scotland signal by day, barely strong enough to listen but easily ID-able.

Way off topic. I apologize.

BMR, in your opinion, do most folks care that the European AM stations have now almost disappeared?

I'm guessing not.
