True Rick. Control of local electrical noise is one of the biggest problems for
these sites. Antennas with poor RDF (directivity) is another. Woefully
inadequate gain at MW is a third problem. To an extent a coastal site can
mitigate the problems but a truly bad setup is a

Tennessee, and Kentucky. For me, the litmus test is how well they sound on
