No I didn’t listen to Buffalo radio except for Rush Limbaugh but that was decades later. Toronto had its own radio stations which were legendary. That said it was also cool to listen to distant radio at night when signals would bounce off the ionosphere. WABC from New York and other stations like KMOX from St. Louis. The internet changed all that so we can now listen to stuff from anywhere. Communicate too. :)

I grew up in western Arkansas in a valley. Daytime signals were weak even out of Ft. Smith 35 miles away.

But after sundown, WLS in Chicago could turn up their wattage. It was top 40. 1970s.
