The dirt on AM radio coverage (Aug 31 2004 01:57 GMT) - Dave is rolling through North Dakota, the source, after Sweden (my mother's side is all-Swedish) of half my ancestors.As a radio buff, I've always marveled at how far AM radio carries in the big flat states. The largest of the large are AM legends KFYR/550 in Bismark, ND and WNAX/570 in Yankton, SD.
