AM Frequency of the Week, Week 3: 570

[kc0ltv]

So...you know the drill

From here in Duluth, I usually hear WNAX, Yankton, SD (5 kW, 362 mi) on this frequency. In fact, that's the only thing I have logged.

WKBN in Youngstown seemingly carries forever, there aren't any other 570s nearby. (Dayton, OH). Not a lot in the way of night loggings here.

At night, I receive KNRS, Salt Lake City, and KLAC, Los Ángeles on 570.

I've heard both WNAX and KNRS in previous locations that I've lived. Here it's splatter from local 580 but sometimes really late when they run old time radio shows, I can null the signal enough to catch 570 news from Kitchener Ontario and another station I haven't bothered identifying.

When I lived in Ohio, that was all I ever heard on 570. It could (can?) be logged at night in Columbus, albeit weakly.

Dallas -

Interesting situation - dominated by KLIF daytime and nighttime. However, when KLIF is nulled at night, WNAX is easily audible with some interference from Spanish language stations.

Daytime WMCA from NYC. Daytime, either a weak signal of WMCA or just a mess.

Since you're north of Dallas, you're more likely to get WNAX than I am. I only caught them once or twice. From roughly 75 miles southeast of Dallas (about 84 from the KLIF array) I get solid daytime reception; not surprising since they've got great ground conductivity and KLIF's 5,000 watt signal can be heard past Austin, in Houston and well into Oklahoma, Lousiana and Arkansas. It's listenable during the day within about a 300-mile radius, but at night Cuba's Radio Reloj (the clock ticking/Morse code Id'ed news station) really cuts into their coverage. Last night here, in fact, RR was dominant on 570 for well over an hour in the late evening hours.

Yea all i get here in MCkinney is Radio Reloj behind KLIF.

570 is usually a mess here in Northern IL, with splatter from WIND on 560. The most reliable of a rather weak nighttime bunch here on 570 would be WKYX (Paducah).

 

[mimo]

I have heard WKBN once or twice through the splatter of local CFRA.
