Are they purposely mixing in some reverb? I was listening to Rush the other day while tooling across the CBUS area and it sounded like he was in a tunnel. I thought maybe it was the reception, but it never changed as I got closer to town.
I remember some old time AM stations doing that... although I'm not really sure why. I admit my thimble-full of radio knowledge is showing here, so I ask the experts.
Why on earth would you add that in - in today's modern world of audio? It doesn't sound cool... or "BIG"... or even retro. It was annoying as all hell. I flipped around a bit to some other distant stations and heard nothing of the sort.
Could it be:
The satellite feed?
The reception of a particular frequency?
They are actually adding a little reverb?
This probably belongs in "tech" BUT - it's Ohio and it could possibly pertain to a philosophy of how a station is run... and how that effects listeners. It nearly drove me away...but it was the best signal for a few hours. It sounds a TON better on Htn & Chas stations.
