Nigel, Thanks Nigel. You are far enough to the East and North to knock down the signal of KNBR, but they are strong here. KNBR is about the worst at night to try and log a distant catc. CJOB I do hear from to time to time. I will keep sitting on 680. Conditions are poor to the East here of late.

Not sure what all the fuss is over WPTF. As i write I am listening to WPTF. Granted, WPTF isn't very strong. They just did weather for North Carolina 2032 EWT. It's mixed with WCNN playing Tony Bennet song and who knows what. Willis Old Fort, TN Patrick, I think you might have a shot at WDBC
