AM Powerdown explained

By Steve Sisson on Mon 08/10/2009 05:16pm

A comment was posted on our site recently asking why reception of KROE is worse after 10 PM than it is during the day. I thought the explanation for this might be interesting to other listeners as well so I am posting it as a commentary for this week. The listener who posted the comment noted that most AM stations reduce power at night, but they weren't sure about the reason for this.
