Canada and Mexico E-skip to SC...best I've heard!!

Guest
Probably the best E-skip I've heard since moving from Virginia to Hilton Head, SC. Saw some pretty stormy weather close by and figured I'd give the XDR-F1HD a whirl. Tuned in at about 4:10pm and had pretty much died out by 5:30pm.

What I have ID'd:

101.9 Kiss FM Campeche, MX (Near Guatemala)
100.3 XHAV-FM RMX Guatalajara, Jalisco, MX
99.5 WCRB Boston
99.5 WTKW TK99/TK105 Oswego, NY
99.5 CJBC-2 Espace Musique Kingston, ON
99.3 XHPOP Mexico City, MX
98.5 XHMT La Comadre Meridia, Yucatan, MX
96.3 XEJB Jalisco Radio Guatalajara, Jalisco, MX
95.3 Kiss FM Chetumal, Quintana Roo, MX
95.3 WHRB-FM Cambridge, MA
94.9 CIMF Rock Detente Gatineau, QC (RDS: "RDETENTE")
93.9 CKKL 93.9 BOB FM Ottawa, ON
92.7 Radio Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes, MX
89.7 XEOYE Oye FM Mexico City, MX
88.9 XHM-FM Noticias Mexico City, MX
88.9 WJTA-FM The Truth Glandorf, OH (Equipment testing message between classical songs)

Un-ID'd out-of-country stations:

96.3 commercial with "La Margarita, Puebla" on it.
99.9 Sounded low-quality, advertisement for a clothing store, several "Gobierno Federal" announcements, a sweeper with "Classica" in it, then in to old mariachi (sp?) music
90.5 Jamaican station, sounds very much like a Miami pirate station with DJ's cutting into the reggae music. In English (very hard to understand). No station name, no announcements, no other FM's from Miami today.
92.7 Recruitment ad for the "Policia Federal" talking about using state of the art technology, an electronics store ad, then a sweeper with "...al mundo de la musica!" as the slogan

Phenomenal stuff! I'll do the math, but I think this breaks the record for E-skip for me!

Nice catches!


This has been quite an active day for sure.

After getting the stations from Texas this afternoon, they were coming in again early this evening from the center of the country.

No official IDs but I heard mention of a store in Alva, Oklahoma. Also heard a station mention something about supporting your Kansas City Royals.
 
Nice! You're picking up some of my locals!

BTW, Kingston's 99.5 CJBC-2 does not carry Espace Musique (Music Space), but relays Première Chaîne (First Channel). If you heard a French language station playing classical music, it probably would've been Montreal's 99.5 CJPX Radio Classique. Great catch either way!
