Re: [IRCA] dx dead spots



It has to be something else, Richard, because iron in the soil is detrimental to an AM station's ability to be heard at a great distance.  The soil in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan on over to the Arrowhead region of northwest Minnesota is absolutely loaded with iron, and the AMs in that area just don't get out well at all.  It's especially noticeable in the daytime.

I forgot to mention the reddish colour of the soil is caused by a high iron content.  Maybe that contributes to the good conductivity.
