Weak Signal 830am new station?

I live in the San Fernando Valley 830 is weak at night, makes me worry if Im going have to sit on my roof to hear games. I know the station cuts its power at night and then aims the antenna west to the ocean. Anyone else getting weak signal? Please email the station if so.
 Nothing beat 710, that station dropped the hammer as we use to say in CB lingo.

830 is weaker than 710 in LA
KLAA has a bigger radius than 710 but by Downtown LA and definitely in the SF Valley it is weaker than KSPN.

710 sucked
I couldn't even get the signal near the stadium at night and it was impossible anywhere east of the stadium.

710 was a pile of shit
I could not listen to the postgame show all the way home to SJC.  Lame.
Um.........

Not Sure Yet
I could rarely get 710's signal in the San Gabriel Valley at night.  I haven't really tried 830 yet, but my understanding is that it has a much stronger signal (more wattage), so theoretically it should be better than 710, I would think.

The predicted nighttime coverage map
can be found here< though I think it will probably end up being a lot worse than that.  I haven't been able to pick up a signal at all in Westwood, though I should also mention that I'm deep inside a high-rise near the end of a row of them on Wilshire.  I'm amazed I get 710 at all, honestly.
No good .sig goes unpunished.

Not good for me...
I'm in far north LA County... Valencia (Santa Clarita).

I get 710 during the day before the signal is cut down at night --  But I can't get 830 at all, ever.

Last year I subscribed to the MLB game audio -- they used the 710 feed, but ended the webcast before "Angel's Talk" came on.

Hopefully the 830 website will webcast the games and "Angel's Talk", for my sake.

Can't wait for baseball season to start!  I'm excited to see how Hunter fits in with the club.

West Valley
Always got good coverage on 710 (West Hills up to Chatsworth).

I get much worse coverage on 830 than I did on 710.

XM radio broadcasts the post game
without the call-ins for the home games.  The away games are handles by the hometeam broadcasters.

La Habra / Fullerton = A+
100 times better than AM710 which had alot of static and would loose reception when I would drive under a tunnel.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
