Probably just variations in propagation, though it's entirely possible that 
some stations are doing tests with variable digital power levels.

Bill, I'm curious to know what the field strength of WBAL is at your location.
Please go to http://www.v-soft.com/ZipSignal/default.htm, enter your zip code, 
and see what it tells you for WBAL.

For anyone else who is experiencing IBOC interference on local (groundwave) 
signals, please try the above service and let us know what the calculated 
field strength is, along with some description of the severity of the 
interference.  The field strength at your location could be a *very* useful 
addition to the report that you send to the affected station.

Barry
