Not the part of the market I live in. In fact, none of the Boston
5-kWers make it here at night usefully. Neither do the 50-kWers, for
that matter, with the obvious exception of WBZ. (My best in-market
nighttime AM signals are 1200, 1060, 1030, and 830 in that order. 890
has bad, bad off-axis phasing -- hardly surprising given the pattern
-- and the problems of 680 and 850 are well-known. For in-market NIF
coverage area, 830 is probably third-best overall. WCRN's official
10.289 mV/m NIF is greatly overstated now that CFJR is gone; it should
be no more than 6.386 including all remaining contributors.)
