I had an idea last week to bring some order to this feature. Rather than try to choose F.O.T.W. on a random basis, I thought we'd just do things in dial position order....but with a twist. So let's start at the bottom with the North American clears that used to contain more than one "dominant" station (the old 1-Bs). I thought we'd start there because we just had a thread that primairly had to do with the old "1-A" blowtorches. So we'll begin at 540, and next time go up to 680, and so on. Okay, then, what are you guys hearing lately on 540?
Here northwest of Chicago daytime, it's a fair signal from WAUK from Jackson, WI. Just northwest of Milwaukee. On a really good radio, KWMT is audible underneath (barely).
At night, WAUK throws a lobe in my direction, so it's usually on top of CBK. On rare occasions when conditions are just right, CBK can overtake WAUK on a sustained basis. A couple of years back, KWMT stayed on day power for several nights and also basically took over the channel here.
