Driving home from work several days ago, I had been listening to WDTW (AM) on the way home from work, and I was surprised to hear them make their pattern change (2 tower DA to 6 tower DA) at 5:15 PM, when there was plenty of daylight left in the day.
Another day, I noted that they had a strong signal just before sunrise as I left for work. At the time, I had just assumed that propagation was just better than average that morning.
Further listening revealed that they are consistently making the night-to-day pattern change at 6:45 AM EST (1345 UTC) and the day-to-night change at 5:15 PM EST (1015 UTC).

The pattern switch times are on a month to month schedule. They are assigned by the FCC so you can't alter them even though it might still be daylight.innate-in-you wrote: ↑Sun Feb 24, 2019 4:04 pmI was surprised to hear them make their pattern change (2 tower DA to 6 tower DA) at 5:15 PM, when there was plenty of daylight left in the day.
