How old a radio must one own to have one that can't get 1610?For anyone with a higher powered radio, there is a Spanish music station on 1330 AM from Chicago area that comes in most evenings between sunset and sunrise here in the Cleveland area. There is also a Spanish format on 1610 AM from the Toronto area. This one comes in almost every night for someone who's radio goes that high.
Ahhhh WKTA from Evanston!!! I was wondering who that was, every time I'd try to catch a legal, I'd lose the signal. AM 1610 is CHHA and belongs to the non-profit San Lorenzo Latin American Community Centre.For anyone with a higher powered radio, there is a Spanish music station on 1330 AM from Chicago area that comes in most evenings between sunset and sunrise here in the Cleveland area.

I am wondering if the 1330 out of Chicago is running the 5k at night, because the signal comes in pretty good.Ahhhh WKTA from Evanston!!!

It does a full-service format in Spanish, as well as programs in other languages such as Punjabi for a few hours in the evening.
Looking at WKTA's pattern, I'm surprised that the 110 watt night signal would make it here to Cleveland, but then again it's aimed right over the lake. The 5 kW day pattern would be more likely to reach without getting swallowed in the hash that is 1330 WINT (Willoughby, Ohio).
Since this is Polnet we're talking about, I wonder if the proper day/night settings are being observed according to the licence terms.
Hispanic Population % Per Nielsen:
Cincinnati - Market #33 - 4% (2 Spanish FMs)
Columbus - Market #36 - 5% (2 Spanish FMs)
Cleveland - Market # 35 - 6%
That's a good question.
And they have all those local ads because they sell for very low rates.Detroit and Grand Rapids, both of whom are (likely) smaller Hispanic markets than Cleveland, have a Spanish AM with an FM translator. I've listened to the Grand Rapids Spanish station in small doses and they seem to air more local ads than some of the full-power major owner stations!
We are seeing that Hispanics (the lowest AM using group of all) will prefer streaming services over AM.An Hispanic group could have bought 1540 AM for probably peanuts. Good Karma actually turned in the license.
Even if someone wanted to pay peanuts it would have been far too much for a signal that couldn't get out of the Fairfax neighborhood and had been forgotten about for nearly 20 years.An Hispanic group could have bought 1540 AM for probably peanuts. Good Karma actually turned in the license.
If properly installed, likely someplace in the Flats, it could cover the areas where the largest non-suburban Hispanic populations live. The real issue for AMs like that is the combination of available land and zoning. In most areas, neighbors do not want a tower and it can take years to get zoning approved.Even if someone wanted to pay peanuts it would have been far too much for a signal that couldn't get out of the Fairfax neighborhood and had been forgotten about for nearly 20 years.
1540 even had a PSSA of 18 watts that would have been great if you were standing next to the old church bell tower.
I can think of only 1 Spanish in Cincinnati.Hispanic Population % Per Nielsen:

La Grande 101.5, translating WIZF's HD-2.I can think of only 1 Spanish in Cincinnati.
WOXY 97.7. What is the second?

Yep, but doesn't make it out very far. At least not to the Cleveland area.Isn't 88.3 in Painesville a Spanish station?
It's a non-comm owned by Nelson Cintron, last I checked.Isn't 88.3 in Painesville a Spanish station?
It's on the fringe side for fixed location listening even in Willoughby. It has a usable signal only in central Lake County and a tidbit of Geauga.Yep, but doesn't make it out very far. At least not to the Cleveland area.
They seem to reach the eastern suburbs, at least they did several years ago when I worked in Beachwood. It used to annoy me when I tuned to 88.3 in the car on the way home to Parma wanting to listen to WBWC and getting them instead.Yep, but doesn't make it out very far. At least not to the Cleveland area.
