Well, I would hazard a guess that the stations had to acquire new or at
least refurbish the old equipment in their audio-signal chain when they
went stereo. So, if you hear differences when they are broadcasting
stereo and when they are in traditional mono mode, perhaps they are
using different audio equipment at those times? If you mean that their
signal is always better since they went stereo, no matter if they are
broadcasting a stereo or a mono signal at the moment, then it could be
due to their having replaced or upgraded their audio equipment as part
of the move to stereo.
