I love the programming especially sports talk and Sean Hannity. I am also a big high school football fan and this leads me to my problem. I live in Jacksonville and when the sun goes down so does KTBB SIGNAL! Other radio stations start bleeding in. I am left with no other choice but to turn the radio off. This happens not only with my home radio but in both vehicles. Of course this has been going on for a long time I just finally had to say something about it. Your ratings must be effected by this and do you have any plans in the near future to boost your stations signal strength? I WANT TO HEAR MORE!

ANSWER

Why can I listen to other Texas stations without subscription and without living there, and you require both? (Posted by Administrator)

ANSWER

The quick answer is because the other radio stations do not broadcast 100% of their over-the-air programming on the internet. In almost all cases, they separate at the commercial breaks and run either fill music or commercials that are locally produced and do not employ announcers or actors that are members of the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA).

ANSWER

Yours is a question we get frequently at this time of year as the sun begins rising later and setting earlier. You didn't specify where you live in the area so my answer will be general in nature.

Every morning around 6:15 your signal seems to be pumped up, I guess for the day.

That second or so when static comes thru causes the listener to miss half a sentence or so. Can this process occur before 6:00 am, instead of in the middle of the sports update?

ANSWER

The momentary interruption that you hear is the result of the physical movement of some rather large relays that serve to:
