[IRCA] IBOC in So Cal

["Martin and Wendy Foltz" <martinfoltz@xxxxxxx>]

Here is a quick survey. I did a daytime scan on 9/12 at lunch in my Toyota truck. I did an after sunset scan (7:10 PM PDT) tonight on my HQ-180A.

570    KLAC    on daytime, kills both side channels but no daytimers there anyway.
                        off this evening
600    KOGO    on daytime, weak signal on 610, probably KAVL. They used to be a daytime regular
                        on this evening, 590 is unusable but 610 is OK
710    KSPN    on daytime, both side channels gone but no daytimers there anyway.
                        on this evening, KDWN-720 and KALL-700 in the hiss null but not as strong
740    KBRT    on daytime (daytime only station), wipes out 730 and 750
790    KABC    on daytime, XESPN-800 in hiss and maybe better signal than with analog sideband splash. 780 unusable.
                        on this evening
980    KFWB    on daytime, wipes out 970 (used to hear Palm Springs) and 990 (used to hear Mexicali)
                        off this evening
1070    KNX    on daytime, wipes out 1080 and 1100
                        on this evening, 1060 and 1080 had stations in hiss null
1110    KDIS    on daytime, wipes out 1100 and 1120
                        off this evening

I've lost some DX frequencies, especially at sunset and sunrise. I've also lost some stations.
