In the days before nearly everything caused man-made interference 
WMCA gave WABC a run for its money with Top 40. I was told that WMCA 
didn't increase power because of it's diplexing with WNYC. Not sure 
what the issue was. I can receive WMCA in Western MA. 5Kw at 570 with 
towers in water even though the Radio-Locator pattern says even the 
fringe signal doesn't make it here. I'm not a listener to religious 
radio but the signal is there from about 125 air miles away. When 
WHYN, Springfield, fires up IBUZ at 560 that'll end.
