I noticed you received WIBC Indianapolis, and your tuner said 1080. I also noticed you received WTAM Cleveland and your tuner showed 1110. Their respective frequencies are 1070 and 1100. How did that happen?

WTIC is usually on this frequency but WFNI was interfered with WTIC.

first, if I am right, you were doing an AM radio band scan during the night. second, I had been listening to AM radio for 15 years and my best time to scan the AM radio band is in the night. I live in southern California and I can listen to AM radio stations far north as Seattle, Washington, far south as northern Baja California, Mexico and as far east as Salt Lake City, Utah in the night. late night to early morning is the best time to have a strong signal from distant AM radio stations.

I can get WSM 650 very clear up here in northern Ohio at night.

Do you have any local radio stations in your area? I ask this because all the stations I hear on your radio are distant and there's a lot of noise, I don't hear any radio stations that the radio is picking up without all that noise.

Again I'm disappointed in the poor selectivity of this radio. If they would improve it I'd be tempted to get one, I like its looks well enough.
