Boooooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnggggggggggggg ggg!!!!!!!!!!

That must have been the sound of that spring inside your skull breaking
loose............

The frequency of 640 Khz is occupied by more stations than you can
shake a stick it. I haven't looked in my station log, because it isn't
real importatnt to me, but I would bet there is at least one in every
state.

If you think you can get a Los Angeles station in Jackson, Ms., I have
a 34 tube Zenith Transoceanic I would like to sell to you.

I've heard KFI in Houston.

I can easily pick up some AM radio stations in Texas.San Antonio and
Dallas and Beaumont and Houston are no sweat for my radios to pick up
and neither are some AM radio stations in Louisiana (New Orleans and
Schreveport) and Alabama (Birmingham) and Tennessee (Memphis and
Nashville) and Georgia (Atlanta) and Arkansas (Little Rock) at night
time.I can pick up WNOE in New Orleans in the day time,although WNOE
does fade in and out in the day time.

I wouldn't have put it quite that way, but I do agree with Les's
point - whatever station you are getting on 640, is is very, VERY
unlikely it is from Los Angeles.

I made a mistake on the 640 khz statement, that is a clear channel
frequency for stations with 50,000 watts of transmit power, here is the
list of stations on 640 KHZ.

Where did you get this data?

WLVJ ROYAL PALM BEAC FL 7500 460 DA-2 REL 5/98

This station is on 24 hours a day and plays big band music from "The
Villages" in Lady Lake Florida. It changed hands a couple years ago and
is no longer a religious station. It is a pain because they over
modulate and splatter the lower part of the AM broadcast band.

Well,I guess I don't know where all of the 640's are in U.S.A. I can
easily do a www.dogpile.com for them and look them up.But,the 640
AM radio station I was listening to definetly was either Northwest or
Southeast of me.I know which way is North,South,East and West and in
between those points of my Compass without needing to actually look at
my Compass.I had the back of my radio aimed to the Northwest to pick up
the best signal from that 640 AM radio station (wherever that particular
AM 640 radio station I was listening to is?) because my couch faces due
West and that was the easiest way for me holding the front of my radio
in front of me.It would have worked the same way (it isn't rocket
science,boys and girls) even I had been holding the back side of my
radio in front of me.

(I am not cheating and looking it up first in my Rand McNallly Road
Atlas) out of Orlando.

The Villages is mostly a retirement community in Florida.y'all might not
believe it,but I do have a snail mail brochure here in a clear plastic
wrapper I ordered from their website.This week,I am gong to snail mail
it to that married Irish woman wayyyy over yonder across the big
pond.OK,now call me a liar.Oh,by the way,a few years ago,I told her she
can have part of my half acre in Interchalen,Florida for free.She told
me she just might take me up on that offer someday.
