Not open for further replies.
WXXL - Tavares – Orlando FL - XL106-7 - Today’s hit music 2023 - most commonly heard

WXDJ Fort Lauderdale FL ---- Spanish 2016 - rarely gets past XL

WOKA-FM Douglas GA Dixie Country 106.7 Country music 2007 - heard during an outbreak of severe weather in south Georgia
 
Tyler TX:

Typical to hear KZZA Muenster (DFW) with Regional Mexican programming from Univision. KYXA Homer (Shreveport, LA) makes several appearances here, as well, delivering Air 1 programming from EMF.
 
Hartland, VT:
W294AB Hanover, NH, "Kool FM," '60s and '70s oldies, fed by WHDQ-FM HD2 Claremont, NH.

Meriden, CT:
Splatter from EMF's "K-Love" WCCC Hartford (106.9).
 
Wilmington Delaware

A rare open frequency in Northern Delaware. I can pick up a very, very weak signal from translator W294BN just north of Dover relaying Reach Gospel Radio with only 55 watts. Radio Locator says I should be able to hear a fringe signal from WWKL in Hershey PA but have never heard it.
 
East Tennessee: (Knoxville/Sevierville): Billy Graham's WFGW, Norris, TN, 100% simulcast of powerhouse WMIT on 106.9 from Black Mountain NC except for commercials and weather. I never understood how WFGW is a few seconds ahead of WMIT when WMIT is the originating station.

Retro/other: Dayton, OH. Used to be WSRW, Hillsboro before Clear Channel/iHeart's tower dancing that moved WMRN-FM in Marion into Columbus from 106.9 to 106.7. Lafayette, IN: I worked for the 80-90 drop-in there as WGLM. It sold to EMF, and was re-sold by EMF to Woof Boom, where it is now WLQQ. That signal is weaker in the Southern part of Lafayette. Before 106.7 signed on it was a weak signal from what was then WYLL (now WPPN). WYLL of course is now on AM at 1160
 
Far northwest suburban Chicago....

106.7 is now WPPN. 50kw at 400 ft HAAT from a stick in the near northwest suburb of Buffalo Grove, IL. About 25 miles southeast of me. As, WYEN, it was one of my alma maters from the '70s. Signal at my home location was/still is good
 
I should also mention the Indianapolis market's WTLC, Greenwood, which is pretty well packed in with WLQQ. The WLQQ/WTLC line is Lebanon, IN.
 
Manchester area, UK: nothing. The frequency is used 30 miles away in Liverpool by a tiny LPFM called LCR, but at such low power that no detectable signal reaches me. The radio station is largely left-wing in nature, and also runs a café next door to its studios, the Croissant of Inequality.

Previously, the frequency was used at higher power, also in Liverpool, by a small commercial AC station which had various names in its life (I recall it going by "The Rocket" for a while, but the other names escape my memory). I mostly remember it for the time it was locked out of its premises for non-payment and the playout system kept playing news, weather and traffic beds to the region for months before someone unplugged it.
 
Here in Madison, Wisconsin, 106.7 is WRIS, one of my favorite Madison stations. It's locally owned by Midwest Family Broadcasting, running a modern rock format. Unfortunately, WRIS rimshots Madison from the west, so it's not uncommon to hear it mixing with (or covered up by) WPPN from Des Plaines/Chicago on days with tropospheric ducting.

IME, WPPN (ex-WYEN & successors) makes it to about the Lauderdale Lakes area southeast of Madison, so I could definitely
understand where tropo on the east side of Madison and points beyond could sometimes be an issue for WRIS.
 
Here in Pickerington, Ohio, it's local WZCB "106.7 The Beat" playing urban contemporary. This is the move-in gr8 mentioned well up thread. That happened in late 2007, and the station went through some rock and AC formats before settling on urban in 2014.
