Hi.
I enjoyed the article about listening to baseball on the radio. I remember
lying in bed when I was 9 or 10 years old, tuning the AM band to see how far
away I could hear. I was in Boulder, CO, and I heard KNX in Los Angeles. I
moved to Cincinnati a couple of years later, and heard KMOX broadcasting a
St. Louis Blues hockey game. The Blues were the first NHL team I really
followed. The farthest AM station distance wise that I've heard from
Lexington, Kentucky was KOA in Denver, at least I think it was, because I
remember the frequency it's on, and I heard a broadcast on that channel. Of
course this was at night. During the daytime, the farthest station I've
heard was from Fairmont, West Virginia. I heard WLW in Cincinnati, over 200
miles away. At present I'm not in a good location to do long distance radio
listening. I use the internet and XM to hear sporting events. I miss when
I could tune my radio to hear stations a good distance away. Good article.
