Nice catch, I live ~10 miles from the tx site so it's always guaranteed to be blasting in.

That IBOC hash is awful though, can't hear anything else from 1680 to 1720 at least.

after reviewing all their FCC data, i have to wonder how they were able to obtain authorization to operate at 1.7Mhz in the first place.

Usually a pretty good signal down this way, as well.

Perhaps WRCR + IBOC hash up to 1720 is the FCC's plan to put an end to pirate radio on 1710, without any need for enforcement efforts.  ;D
