This almost fits in with the FCC switch-over times that Al Merriman kindly
sent. I note that there isn't a Gray-Line enhancement between here and E Coast
USA at your sunrise though we do get signals from the E Coast peaking late in
our evening when sunrise occurs. On some freqs you can get different stations
coming up as sun-rise moves across the US. Same thing for South America. Real
interesting when a regular W Coaster like KNBR 680 is bumped off by WPTR!
