DX signals into Central PA

[TheTiger]

I'm planning to visit the Hershey area probably next month but I wanted to know that how good could I get other FM stations besides the Harrisburg metro area? I went to the HDTV Info website and some guy living south of Hummelstown, which is only five miles west of Hershey can get Baltimore stations using an outdoor antenna. So would it be possible to pull in some Baltimore or other MD stations with a good car radio?

Also how well can I get WQKX 94.1 from Sunbury in the Hershey area?

I live in the West Hanover area and more times than not, WQKX comes in decent. I love their radio station. You will be able to get more Philly stations if you head into Lancaster County. If you are lucky, in Hershey you will be able to get Q102.
