That's what 50,000 watts with a Franklin antenna will do for you. I worked there for six years and was amazed at where we'd get e-mails (and occasionally hand-written letters) from. In that half-hour before actual sunset or after sunrise, I've pulled them in on camping trips in Wyoming.

KNX, KFBK and KNZR Were my first to show up in the winter, as early as 3pm or so Mtn time and last to leave... as late as 10-11am MTN the next day. KNX once or twice had been audible all day in the winter.. KNZR was usually the absolute first to show up before sunset and the absolute last to leave after sunrise
