I went to the FCC link provided by Al Klase (Thanks,
Al!) and was surprised to learn that WMTR is a
5,000-watter. I figured it was a kilowatt. It's very
weak here (near Exit 8 NJTP), with adjacent channel
noise from WBUD from Trenton on 1260. Yes, the
adjacent channel hash is really the fault of my Radio
Shaft DX-390. I'll have to try picking it up with a
REAL comm. rcvr. Fire-bottle equipped, of course.
