Because I am studying for my PhD out at U.Mass/Amherst, I am perpetually on 
the MassPike, it seems.  In the daytime, I can get WKOX (badly, but 
audibly) in parts of Amherst, and it comes in very well in Quincy till it's 
time for the pattern change.  But at night, when I am driving home from 
Amherst, the station doesn't come in till I am past the route 495 exit on 
the Pike, and even then, it is not very loud or clean till I am well past 
Framingham.  The other night, just out of curiosity, I drove route 9 back 
from Amherst, and the same thing happened-- no WKOX till I was nearly in 
Framingham.   At night, especially in Worcester and also along route 
93/128, several other signals come in over WKOX, such as The Team 1200 out 
of Canada (I think it's CFCA?  They carry some Fox Sports net and some 
local shows).
