Q

McPherson, KS

KNBR Have picked this one up a few times
CINF isn't possible due to nearby KGGF
KIRO have never heard, due to location in the middle of the nulls of most all the 710's
XEROK, heard a lot in the 70's-80's, still hear it once in a while
CBW i can occasionally get late nights, have a nearby 990 on flea power at night
CBR have never caught
WTIC have never caught, too close to Dallas
KAAY is a semi-regular here
KWKH can be occasionally caught at night, not often tough
KFAQ comes in here day and night, weak during the day and ok at night
CKDO i've never picked up.
 
680 KNBR: Never
690 CINF: Regular, dominates this frequency (though covered in IBOC hash by WLW)
710 KIRO: Never heard it. I have a local (WDSM) on this frequency.
800 XEROK: Never heard it. 800 is a mash of stuff.
990 CBW: Very regular, probably the strongest CBC outlet here
1010 CBR: Never heard it, usually have WINS and CFRB.
1080 WTIC: I've heard it before, but the brokered station in Chicago or maybe KRLD seems more common
1090 KAAY: Regular, dominates frequency.
1130 KWKH: Never heard it, I have a very strong semi-local 1130 here.
1170 KFAQ: Never heard it.
1580 CKDO: Never heard it.
 
680 KNBR - a couple of times
690 CINF - no, CBU overpowers it, sometimes it almost sounds like a local station (that's what I usually listen to on my way to/from work, but now that I'm not working graveyard shift anymore, I'll have to find something else to listen to.......)
710 KIRO - day & night, very weak during the daytime
800 XEROK - not that I can remember
990 CBW - no
1010 CBR - only at night, after KOOR drops to inaudibility
1080 WTIC - overpowered by KFXX ("djfrresh"'s absolute favourite)
1090 KAAY - overpowered by KFXX's sideband
1130 KWKH - usually overpowered by CKWX (which I listen to sometimes but not as often as CBU)
1170 KFAQ - mess of stations and splatter off KEX's lower IBAC channel
1580 CKDO - no, mess of Californian stations and KKAD splatter
 
MotoMuzak, I don't think you got cailfornians on 1580, I think you get KGAL Lebanon, OR at night. They come in here in Seattle strong.
