My favorite radio station, KWML AM 570 is about 60 miles away but at its daytime power of 5,000 watts I receive it quite well. However, for the past couple of weeks I believe they are leaving it at the nighttime power of 155 watts. I can just barely hear it. They have a 215 watt FM translator but I receive no signal from that. I have sent an email asking about the situation but am not surprised to get no reply. My question is: can these AM stations that promote themselves as FM cut the... Read more ..read more

Back to the Big Apple again. The subject states it all. I just want to point out that the article cites that Audacy threatened a flip to a simulcast of 1010 WINS, citing a Podcast where the hosts discussed the whole issue from their side. I listened to that Podcast this morning through Apple Podcasts (also available on Spotify), and they state that the threat was to flip 92.3 to "All News." That could be WINS or WCBS-AM...
