Dennis, You get KLYC much better than I do. I can get them, but they are not strong. It used to be decent at S9, but not these days. Infact years ago I don't remember splatter from KBAM on them either. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager

That is too bad. I remember listening to the station back in the 1960s under the calls KMCM for McMinnville. I wonder if the station will finally be bought and return to the air? I guess it came on in 1949, the year I was born. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager

Dennis, Yes, that is sad to see the station go. I don't like to see any AM station go off the air, but the old ones, it is even more sad. I remember well the days when so many of the Valley stations were solid as a rock and were popular. KMCM was very popular and I remember visiting the station

I remember one thing the CE told me at KBAM Longview back in the 70s the stations in the shadow of Portland, they always have to compete harder. McMinnville is in that metro Portland area. But with all of AM FM stations on the air, it is hard for many of them to get enough ad money to stay

A big problem for these stations is the way stations are counted for ratings and for disbursing ad dollars. The ad agencies don't think of Salem as Salem, or McMinnville as McMinnville, etc. They're considered part of the Portland ADI Area Of Dominant Influence, which is true in a way, but for
