90.5 was coming in clear and might have been WNIU (classical) from Dekalb but unfortunately it was only left on 90.5 for 1 second which was too short of a time to tell. Someone was talking and it sounded like it could have been an announcer from Classical 24.
 
Great bandscan, thanks! Pretty much something on every frequency.

Being north of the WI / IL border, I don't hear the "southland" stuff very often. BTW, is that a Hyundai radio? Looks just like the display on my wife's '18 Santa Fe.

Sorry about that! 🙁

Thanks! I have a 2020 Hyundai Elantra.
 
I noticed that US 99 and WLIT no longer have HD2 stations.

iHeart and Audacy turned off most of the HD channels. The only ones still on are 95.5-2, 96.3-2 and 103.5-2 as well as 105.9-2, all except for 95.5-2 run national feeds. 95.5-2 runs Premium Choice Country, with Premium Choice Classic Country on Sunday
