Kbig Signal

Does anyone know if Kbig has increased their power? I noticed now that they are HD digital, that Im able to pick up there signal very well in Rancho Cucamonga and most of the IE. Their Digital signal is awesome too. One thing I can tell you about digital is that KIIS Fm has horrible sound processing and Power 106 has a delay between their Analog and Digital Signal. I can't even listen to that station when the station signal is weak, especially when you reach colton and rialto area. But the other Hd stations sound very clear.

I tuned in (accidentally) a bit this afternoon and it was in mono. I double checked with several other stations, and sure enough... I didn't stay long enough to see how long it lasted.

They increased heigth of the support structure on Mt. Wilson and reduced power. the main motivator seems to be the RFI issues on top of the peak.

This height increase may give it a better shot to the areas you mention, like Rialto, which are shaded.
