I remember one thing the CE told me at KBAM Longview back in the 70s the stations in the shadow of Portland, they always have to compete harder. McMinnville is in that metro Portland area. But with all of AM & FM stations on the air, it is hard for many of them to get enough ad money to stay afloat. Back when it was mainly AM, and there weren't as many stations, it was much easier. Plus the economy was much stronger too. In today's world, I wonder how many people listen to these suburban AM stations?
