[BC] Poor Reception Areas

[Jason R. at KGVL - KIKT]

It's a pretty 'relative' rule of thumb because there are a lot of varialbes, 
but I always think this way:

45-50+ is pretty low, and you'll start getting trash and picket fencing as 
you drive along.
60+ works, but you'll start noticing some noise in the signal.
I *think* 70 dbU is a city - grade.  Gets inside most businesses with a 
useful signal.
80+ ish oughta sound pretty decent.
90+ should drive a receiver into quieting.

At least, that's how I always think about it.

YMMV, or course, depending on all the "stuff:... like which receiver, which 
antenna, what orientation, what envorionment, etc.
