Areas of the U.S. where you can receive CHRs from other markets.

[wpxt]

I was thinking of this the other day when I was in Barrington, New Hampshire and was flipping the dial and realized that in certain places you could receive 94.1 WFTN of Franklin, NH, 95.3 WSKX of York Center, Maine, 97.9 WJBQ of Portland, Maine, 105.5 WJYY of Concord, NH and 107.9 WXKS of Boston, MA. I have family there and have never really noticed before that you could get 5 CHRs.

Who else has had this happen to them while traveling where you can get many CHRs from multiple states?

My other observation was of Sanford, Maine where you can get 3. WJBQ and WSKX come in everywhere in town but WXKS comes in best on Mount Hope road which is up a steep incline.

Then Scarborough, Maine receives 3 with WJBQ, WSKX and 92.3 WMME of Augusta, Maine.

So the most I've ever received in one place is 5. Anyone have more?

In LA, we have 102.7 KIIS-FM, 97.1 AMP Radio, and nearby 99.1 KGGI in Riverside. In rare times, SD CHRs can come in aswell. I've heard Channel 933 and Z90.3 here.

Youngstown is quite lucky.

Here in Dayton....

Channel 945: All Premium Choice
Q102: Adult CHR (though, good)
KISS 107: Lame corporate-sounding CC

Why does this part of Ohio have to get this!? lol.

 

[Fmboy]

[C Murder]

Lafayette, LA:

• 94.5 KSMB (Lafayette)
• 102.5 WFMF (Baton Rouge)

[MassMusicMan]

I might be liberal with my use of "CHR" here, but in Franklin County, Vermont, one might pull in:

95 Triple X
94.7 Hits FM (Chateaugay, NY)
Virgin Radio Montreal
Energie
CKOI

 

[the golden boy]

Biloxi-Gulfport can get B97 New Orleans and Mobile-Pensacola stations WABB and I-100. SL100 Laurel-Hattiesburg puts a little bit of a signal there, but it's better the further north you go. I can also get SL100 here in Jackson at times when I'm in the car. Some days are better than others and depending on what part of town.

Memphis has its own CHR, Q107.5, but Kiss FM from Jonesboro comes in, especially in the car.

 

[DaytonRadio]

In Orlando you can receive 107.1 A1A out of Melbourne on the east end, the legendary 933FLZ on the west end, and 103.3 the VYB out of Daytona Beach on the north end.

 

[SweetJumper]

[Mid West Clubber]

From Martinsville Indiana

96.7 WBWB B-97 good Signal

Z-99.5 WZPL Adult top 4o Local Signal

Radio Now 100.9 WNOU-Good Signal

100.7 WMGI-Weak Signal

I-94 93.9 Fair Signal

98.9 Kiss FM WKSF on some car radios in the right location DX Signal

100.5 Gen X radio.. retro CHR... in some locations,, mainly in early morning DX Signal

107.3 WRZQ Hot AC-Good Signal..





















So thats 6 or 7 here if you count the Adult friendly ones.. I dont really count the last 2, as they are extreme DX

I was able to hear A1A in Kissimmee.

In San Diego, there were moments when I could hear KIIS from Los Angeles. However, 102.9 from San Diego often prevented Kiss from coming in too well. Reception was better the farther north you go, particularly around Oceanside.

In New Orleans, you can hear WFMF Baton Rouge and vice versa. KSMB Lafayette can also be heard in Baton Rouge.

 

[fmradio1]

In most parts of Southeastern Connecticut, you can get

WKSS/Hartford
WKCI/New Haven
WQGN/Groton
WILI-FM/Willimantic
WPRO-FM/Providence, RI
WBEA/Southhold, NY (E. Long Island)

and if you want to include rhythmic CHR's, throw in WZMX/Hartford as well...
