[IRCA] KGA degrade

[Bill Harms <philcobill@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Patrick:

    Maybe from a financial point of view this kind of thing might make 
sense for the new owners. However, it negates one of the strong points 
of the AM band and that is long distance night time coverage. 
Historical, KGA has been one of the top two or three best bests, if not 
THE best bet, for Washington state for DXers in virtually all 
directions. I think I had them a couple of times here in Maryland last 
season, but never did pull out an ID. Maybe if they keep their ND 
daytime pattern, they still may be a best bet.
