Re: [IRCA] Weird radio conditions in northern California

Mike,

After receiving your phone call message (sorry I was out back playing bodyguard for my cat----lotsa nasty felines in the block & he's 13 years old) I hoped for some good sunset skip.  What I got was (1) some really weird signal blocking new noises...sounds like I'm being jammed all over & (2) noticing just how awful the IBOC is here in S.F. with both KNEW-910 & KQKE-960 using it to their fullest.  All I could hear on adjacent frequencies between
890-980 was a bloody hiss.  890 had St. George/So.Cal & 980 had a strong KVLV Fallon with country music.  900-920-930-940 including KWRU Fresno-950-970 were totally wiped out....Down to 750 KHWG Fallon was blasting in, also with country music.  This was just before 3:30pm today....Too much noise, returned to Master of Orion III............

Starting at 870 and going to the top was strong Los Angeles and Tijuana whereever they could get past locals and IBOC.  Even XEPE/1700 was running even with the NASA TIS on 1700 at less than one mile from the TIS.  Nothing profound to the north or east, just south. Could be interesting around sunset!
