WUOM transmitter issues?

Post by n8fnr » Sun Nov 14, 2021 3:11 pm

I live in Royal Oak and have a Sangean HDR-16 that I keep in our bedroom to use as a clock radio to wakeup to WUOM daily. It received WUOM very well until recently with no issues. Lately I have been having a lot of problems getting it to come in no matter how I position the antenna. Does anyone know if WUOM is having any transmitter issues? My Sangean HDR-14 and CCRadio 3 are having the same issues BTW.

The tower is 39 miles due west from my home BTW.

Sounds perfectly normal in my area. I'm near 14 and Woodward. With wire antenna, can get stereo signal on my finicky HT receiver in the living room. Signal in the car is rock solid.

I live not terribly far from the TX site. I'm still picking it up through guitar amps and the toaster.

Oh, wait. There could be interference from 91.5 or 91.9 around, also.
