Re: [IRCA] WIBC-1070's minor lobe west

[John Sampson <jnsampson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Checked my loggings; have heard WIBC in the midwest (Des Moines, Omaha, 
Minneapolis, Hutchinson) several times; obviously, on day pattern.  I 
suspect that that pattern may not be as tight as is theoretically 
indicated.  When we lived in Winston-Salem, they, along with WFLI, 
dominated 1070 at nite (which, given their nite pattern, isn't a 
surprise). - John
