What a coincidence! A few days earlier, WEZE-AM 590 in Boston was off-the-air in the early morning hours, and WTAG-AM was very audible in the immediate Boston area, almost interference-free! This isn't the only instance of "improper" Canadian interference...WKOX-AM 1200 is blasted by a Canadian sports station on the same frequency every night (it must be worse for the 1200 in Syracuse).
