Air America in Hartford ?
A coworker who lives in the Hartford area is interested in listening to AAR and I don't know what station broadcasts it in that area. Can anyone help? Thanks

1. The NY station is

1190 which is the only one that comes in for me. There is also a station in New Haven 1300. That one does not come in but I am in South Eastern CT. Your friend might have better reception.

Edit---there is a list of stations on the sight. Maybe one of the Boston station will come in.

If your friend lives East of Hartford at all

2. There is no AAR station in Hartford.
Seems to me WPOP, 1410-AM, or perhaps WLAT, 1480-AM, would make ideal AAR affiliates, but it hasn't happened yet.

The only Connecticut AAR station is WAVZ, 1300-AM, out of New Haven, but it doesn't reach any farther north than Middletown.

If you have a decent AM receiver, you might be able to pick up AAR's New York flagship, WLIB (1190-AM). However, the network is about to sever ties with WLIB and adopt WWRL, 1600-AM, as its new homebase. And I don't think WWRL reaches Hartford.

4. Thanks for the suggestions
I will tell him about the Framingham station

I live near New Haven and work in Wallingford. I can't get 1300 AM once I get past exit 64 on the Merritt

5. Isn't Air America on XM?
Your friend could get an XM satellite radio and a subscription to XM, then he / she could listen to Air America anywhere in the country.
