Re: [IRCA] Daytime Skip signals

[Stephen Airy <pianoplayer88key@xxxxxxxxx>]

I thought when a signal got up to S9 ("extremely strong signal" using RST reports), one would be seeing "50/00" readings on nearby blank channels on Tecsun radios (and 88/25 to 94/25 on-channel, as well as over 66-72 dBu on IBOC sidebands). ;)
I hear IBOC hash even adjacent to S3 "moderately weak" or S4 "fair" (tripping a seek/scan or point of maximum volume above which noise gets quieter) signals.  (One example is KFI, 99 mi from my house, which is around 42/25 to 45/25 daytime on my PL-606.  KNX at 111 mi is generally a few dB stronger or so due to a partial saltwater path.)
