Title: WQPM 1300 AM 2115 UTC Jan 4 2022
Post by: skeezix on January 04, 2022, 2126 UTC

Getting a decently strong signal from WQPM on 1300 with oldies programming (The Big Q (http://www.bigqradio.com/)). However, the signal is absolutely horrible. They have translators on 95.9 & 107.5. I can get 95.9 here and that sounds fine. Cannot pick up the 107.5 station.

Tuning in this afternoon, something does seem very wrong there.   They sound much better than on your clip, but there is still a bad hum and a lot of hash on the waterfall.   I nulled out 1310 KGLB (Glencoe) in doing this check.
