WDBO on 107.3 Translator

Is there anywhere that the 107.3 translator actually has good reception? Up and down I-4, from the attractions to the John Young Parkway, the reception is terrible.
 
It’s really not good in Altamonte Springs or anywhere in Orlando proper. Maybe it’s my car radio. I’ll have to try those other areas.

For much of the time when one drives between exits 64 and 79, WDBO’s translator is fighting it out with 107.3 the Eagle out of Tampa.
 
You can use 95.3FM right now for the time being, before they flip...
I honestly don't listen to Talk radio, & I've never had reception problems with them when they were "X107.3" years ago.
 
It comes in ok in the Winter Park to Downtown stretch of 17-92. Not that I need to tune in to hear seventeen pieces of imaging between two news stories where the reporter fumbles their words before hearing them do a full station identifier every 10 seconds. But I can if I want to.

Only if you're somewhere standing still. When WLOQ moved Smooth Jazz to a translator, that was an unmitigated disaster. The Orlando metro area is too spread out, and too flat for a puny translator to have flawless coverage.
