Does anybody in range of WTVN 610 Columbus Ohio hear splatter from
WTVN 30 kHz to each side? _I'm not talking about the IBOC hash,_ which
is there as it's supposed to be, but unclipped regular AM audio way
outside the station's band.

Try tuning to WHLO 640 Akron, if you can get a solid signal, and
listen for splatter that coincides particularly well with a male
voice on WTVN. (It's not recognizeable as voice, it sounds more
like a power line insulator arcing, but it corresponds exactly with
the audio on WTVN.)

If I null away WTVN it goes away.

I imagine the test only makes sense if WTVN is strong for you and
WHLO is relatively weak, but not so weak that there's noise hiss
over it.

There's thunderstorms today, so it's hard to test. Try it when it quiets down.
Some daytime, so there's no DX to contend with.
