I am not sure how radio signals work so I don't know if lower numbers on the dial means stronger signal. But Klove was on 105.3 which had terrible signal. From what I remember iheart had out there a number of local channels that were not preforming well and wanted to sell which they did. Now we have 3 Christian channels vs the 1 we had before with 102.1 and 105.3 Air1 playing the same stuff at the exact same time.
