E-Skip Opening in Akron Ohio

A

Andrew K

Around 12 pm eastern time today, I noticed a few spots on the e-skip map around Missouri at the Mississippi River. So I went downstairs to my Yamaha T-85 to hear what I could find. The opening only lasted about an hour before dying down. It's gone now, but here's what I was able to positively identify...

88.5 KEOM MESQUITE, TX (CLASSIC HITS)
88.7 KTPB KILGORE, TX (K-LOVE)
91.7 KKXT DALLAS, TX (KXT 91.7)
92.1 KROI HOUSTON, TX (NEWS 92 FM)
93.7 KKRW HOUSTON, TX (CLASSIC ROCK - THE ARROW)
94.5 KTBZ HOUSTON, TX (MODERN ROCK - THE BUZZ)
95.7 KKHH HOUSTON, TX (HOT 95.7)
96.1 KXXM SAN ANTONIO, TX (MIX 96.1)
96.7 KHFI AUSTIN, TX (KISS FM)
97.1 KTHT CLEVELAND, TX (COUNTRY LEGENDS 97.1)
99.1 KODA HOUSTON, TX (SUNNY 99.1 SOFT ROCK)
100.3 KILT HOUSTON, TX (THE BULL - COUNTRY)
101.1 KLOL HOUSTON, TX (MEGA 101)
101.9 KQXT SAN ANTONIO, TX (Q101.9)

... all received in Akron Ohio, and all stations I've never logged before today. I've just recently got back into DXing. With the Yamaha T-85 and AntennaCraft FM6 with rotator, it works pretty well.
 
I went to get lunch around 12:20pm in Lorain and didn't notice anything unusual except for something interfering with WRVF on 101.5 which usually comes in pretty good. Judging by what you were getting around that time it may have been either KROX or KNUE but who knows
