Re: WMPX and WMRX simulcasting again

Pretty sure 99.3/1250 AM oldies translator broadcasts in mono...I know in Alaska our FM translators on ESPN and news talk stations were put on mono on purpose to supposedly cut down on noise?....dont know if that helped on getting out further....although 250 W at 3,000 feet on top on top of Ester Do...

Re: Mid-Michigan radio/tv stationreception

I am West of M13 near Chesaning, and 6/53 from Lansing is a blowtorch of a signal.
