Y101

[MVB13]

I was up in Provincetown and was able to pick up Y101 on 101.1 with very little interference. Is that normal throughout the year?

Meaning WHYA 101.1 on Cape Cod?--in summer sometimes there's tropo that can get distant FM signals popping up due to warmer weather. A year or two ago I was getting a Florida station up in Beverly. Also some from other parts of New
England come in (CT, ME) and sometimes may even override a local station. The map on radio-locator.com says that WHYA should normally reach Provincetown as the very edge of the distant line (Local/Distant/Fringe)

So, getting it with very little interference? Could be a summer deal.
101.1 also is on stations in Manchester NH (WGIR-FM) and there are some low power or translator stations around Providence; WBMS 1460 has an FM translator at 101.1 and WMEX is to get one on same freq later

>>WMEX’s FM translator at 101.1 will launch, though its Hingham-based signal won’t reach much past the South Shore.

Tropo is usually enhanced by an over water path as this is.
