Was about to get in the pool today, when I was flipping around the radio, when it stopped on 93.9. Expecting it to be WTYK out of the shoals, I almost turned it off, but I noticed that it was a music station. I left it on until an ID, and found out it was WTBX, Hibbing Minnesota, 925 miles away. I checked back again later but it was gone, and nothing else around the dial beyond Nashville Chattanooga or Birmingham was coming in.

E-skip brings WTBX Hibbing MN to AL
- Thread starter TheDingo
- Start date
Pretty typical for this time of the year. Today was an especially nice day, though, it seemed.
WTBX is a semi-local here in the outskirts of Hermantown. Didn't hear Alabama today - caught the skip late, and logged two new stations from PA / NJ, one of which ran only 750 watts. Then when I finished dinner and turned the radio on again Montreal was coming in strong.

I caught Minnesota Public Radio on 92.9, KCLD 94.9, a CHR on 96.7, and many more I didn't identify. I was driving when the skip hit.
I had my weekly radio show on my college station last night at 10, and I did a legal ID between every song to help you DXers out. If you heard dance music on 90.3, that's WVPH-FM Piscataway.
