St. Louis has a ton of AM signals, but few are commercially viable... Legendary 50kW CBS News/Talker KMOX chugs along usually near the top of the market overall at 1120; 5kW KTRS generally shows up somewhere in the mid to high 2s - daytime non directional signal is the best in the market, nighttime, there are some real holes to the east. Oldies KZQZ, which has a CP to go to 50kW Days at 1430 usually chimes in around a 1, Clear Channel Black Gospel KATZ-AM usually shows up in the 1s, as does Sports/Talk KFNS.
Several other AMs show up with either a couple tenths of a point if they show up at all including Crawford Christian Talk 630 KJSL (once legendary Top 40 KXOK), 690 KSTL, also owned by Crawford with a Black Gospel format, Birach brokered foreign language stations 770 WEW and 880 WIJR, Lutheran Church owned KFUO (850), Classic R&B/Urban Talk WGNU (920), Brokered Religious KXEN (1010), Classic Country KQQZ (1190), Radio Disney WSDZ (1260), Bott Christian KSIV-A(1320), and Sports Talk KSLG (1380).
St. L probably has a more vibrant AM dials than most places, but outside of KMOX and the Christian stations, most of the local AMs are on life support.
