The Director of News and Programming at WBBM Chicago sent a short email QSL saying thanks and '... that's pretty remarkable...' This is a 50kW transmitter but with a fairly non-directional night-time pattern. The distance is about 8500 miles or 13600 km, so good going even for the station with one of the highest powers on the frequency. In the clip you can hear the CBS News cue, a jingle along with the station ID for both 780 AM and 105.9 FM and some weather including '... 15 degrees at O'Hare...' I had a few business trips to Chicago over the years and it can sure get cold there!
