Rimshot #1?

Are there any move-in, rimshot signals with coverage holes in their markets that have triumphed over a lousy signal to achieve #1 in any demographic up against full market sticks?

KESS Dallas.
 
not only that,

it's a major rimshot- I think it only effectively (you can get it on the clock radio next to your bed) covers about half the market, right David?

It is a bit better than that... it is about 10% less than the inner, red circle on radio-locator.com. But it is not a Cedar Hill facility.

KESS transmits from somewhere near Denton, which is about 35 miles from both downtown Dallas and downtown Fort Worth. Most of the other DFW area rimshots are further out than that -- so, as David notes, KESS is a rimshot, but it is the best rimshot facility in the market.

It also has superb audio quality, from the times I've checked it when in the DFW area. The engineers did it right.
