    WTAM 1100 received in SoCal

    Forgot to post this from October, but I actually managed to snag WTAM under regional traffic here on 1100 AM.

    Method of proof: An EAS Required Monthly Test was conducted at that time for the State of Ohio, and under the traffic I heard the EOM (End Of Message) tones that follows before the test concludes around the time of issuance. Another DXer in the Ohio area reported WTAM sending their test around the same minute I heard the tones.

    Distance is 2023 miles.

    [I swear EAS tones are nice DX tools to use, especially on AM.]
