Funny you should mention this.
It appears the St. Louis-based syndicated morning show "Steve and DC" has signed up a very, very small affiliate - 250 watt daytimer WQMA/1520 in Marks, Mississippi.

In case that doesn't ring a bell, it's the station owned by a former AOL radio board regular, and a regular on this board worked there briefly a year or so ago. (No, Paul, this is not an invite for you to open that can of worms.
)
Some shows seem to only aim at FMs, but even "TRN-FM"'s Mancow is on KLAC/570. And even Stern has a couple of AMs in his collection - in Reno and in Grand Rapids, if I remember right.
