50Kw day and almost night WFLF near Orlando, FL is so directional both day and night,
they just do not seem to go anywhere outside their local market.

I may have picked them up daytime in Houston. The little daytimer in Dallas is easily nulled, so I nulled it. I did hear something, very faint in the background that I am pretty sure was in English. But - until I can back it up with a Youtube video, a station ID, or at least a matching stream - I cannot put this in the confirmed category. The pattern map does show a lot of energy over the Atlantic and the Gulf, plus I can definitely confirm both it and WDBO at sunset when the atmospherics are right and they haven't gone night pattern. But that is a very different scenario. I am going to try from Galvestion at some point - I know WWL and the old WNOE both sounded like locals down there, so there is a lot of Gulf effect. But I don't know if that will extend to Florida or not. There have been reports of Tampa Bay stations daytime along the Gulf in Texas, so I am open to the possibility - but Winter Garden is not on the Gulf. It is smack in the middle.
