I live in Rochester, NY and I enjoy MW. My favorite radio stations
are the ones I haven't logged yet. I drove an old beater truck around
in November and collected a few hundred stations. I figured out that
collecting raDIO stations for my logbook would be easier on the road.
Perhaps I will post some of my logs from my last road trip and you can
guess my route. I learned that the cockpit is a very busy place. Logging
radio stations while driving around and camping is really a 2 person
operation.

I wonder if you have logged WSM 650 from the northwest. They have a
great looking antanna tower down there and always put a good signal
into Rochester.

I've yet to hear WSM north of Utah. I believe, though I haven't done the map
work, that WWL is the furthest station I have received on a stock radio,
though KMOX in St. Louis and KSTP in Minneapolis/St. Paul may be further
from Portland. I've copied lots of border blasters from there, along with
many Texas and Oklahoma stations, plus KTNN in Window Rock, AZ, a bunch of
Canadians in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan, stations in Butte, Billings,
Helena, and Great Falls, MT, Casper, WY, Denver, CO, Salt Lake City, UT,
Reno and Las Vegas, NV, Sacramento, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Fresno and
Chico, CA (most of these last are nightly catches). Daytime "DX" has been
heard from Boise, ID (about 400 miles- then KFXD-580), Richland, WA (about
300 miles) and "local" from Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia, Vancouver, BC, and
Roseburg and Medford, OR (about 200 miles).
