Bob,
KDAC with one tower and 1 kw one would think
that they could make it South 55 miles. Drove thru
Fort Bragg two years ago, Highway 1 from Leggett
to the coast is a real driving experience. I think the
top speed was 35 mph and that was for only 500 ft.

Well, almost 55 miles: KDAC 1230 Fort Bragg, CA. at 60 miles. I've lived here
almost 11 years and through all hours of the day, all seasons and a variety of
receivers and antennas, I haven't even been teased. Granted, its a unique
combination of distance and terrain, but you would think the law of averages
would at least toss me a crumb.

Hello,
My closest unheard AM station is KIHR 1340 Hood River, OR.
55 miles up the Columbia river. Local IBOC station KKPZ
1340 puts out moderate hash on 1340. I tried the KIWA loop
today, but could not cut the hash. With the u-shaped fence
antenna
faint audio can be heard. Around sunset KTSN is usually
heard from
Elko, NV. KIHR & KKEE 1230 Astoria, OR (65 miles)
might take
months to log. Have spent abut 8 hours listening for
KKEE. Local
KSZN 1230 Gresham, OR (18 miles) can be nulled, but KHSN
Coos Bay, OR (179 miles) pops up.
In would be interesting to find out if any DXers have a
unheard
station under 55 miles.
