FM Frequency of The Week: 100.7

[mc_billy_bob]

From Greenville, PA,

WMMS/Cleveland and WZPT/New Kensington (Pittsburgh, PA)

Both about an equal distance away. (65 miles or so)

Nothing here except splash from our local 100.5 usually. Several times, however, I've picked up Brunswick, GA on 100.7, and I've heard Rocky Mount several times on my car radio. What a signal.

You usually gain that signal as soon as you get to South of the Border, or on a bad day, Lumberton, and don't lose it until you get well into Virginia. I've picked it up halfway to Petersburg clear.

WKVU - Utica, NY "K-Love"
CBFX - Montreal, Quebec "Espace Musique"

Those two pay visits here, Montreal more often than the K-Love signal.

I can only catch US 101 out of Chattanooga on that frequency. :

On two separate occasions, I've heard WRVA-FM (100.7 FM, formerly licensed to Rocky Mount, NC but now licensed to Wake Forest, NC with no change in facilities) as far north as Springfield, Va/I-95/395/495 junction (about 12 miles outside the District of Columbia)

Usually WHUD Peekskill, NY booms in like a local @ 25 miles away but I have picked up WZXL Wildwood, NJ & WLEV Allentown, PA quite often during tropo.

Performing some more thread necromancy here only because I never posted in this thread

Vermilion, OH: 100.7 is WMMS/Cleveland, OH which has been described around here as a mancave format of rock and talk. When tropo is up I can get CKUE/Windsor, ON interfering with WMMS. When I was living in Columbus, it was always WEEC/Springfield, OH.

For folk who have posted in these threads a couple of years ago, has anything changed? New stations or translators? UNIDs since IDed?

Depending on where I'm at in the Chicagoland area, I can get any of the following. If in the south suburbs & in parts of western Lake County Indiana, I can get WRXQ Coal City/Joliet, IL. In eastern Lake County Indiana, along with all of Porter County Indiana, I get WBYT Elkhart/South Bend, IN.

W264BF has an interesting setup: a mere 2 watts, but from 1450' AAT! How it was ever allowed to be so short-spaced with WKKV and WBYT is beyond me.

Let's not forget WRXQ down in the Joliet area. I can sometimes get W264BF in Gary, IN. I haven't been up north to see how far I can hear this translator without interference, but I've gotten this one as far south as Burnham, IL. It's still well heard in most south south side neighborhoods of Chicago.

I have local WEFX with classic hits, used to be WOTT with active rock until they moved to 94.1 which has a much better signal. WEFX fades pretty quickly once you go east of Watertown and from there its not uncommon to get Utica which is now WUTQ-FM relaying WUTQ-AM with Soft AC.

Update

In Pacific Beach, WA, 100.7 is a mix of KKWF Seattle [Country, 105 mi] and KPPT Depoe Bay, OR [Classic Hits, 150 mi S]. Sometimes KPPT comes in better than KKWF, and other times the opposite.

In Portland, OR 100.7 is open. Sometimes I hear adjacent KKRZ 100.3 slop, but it's mostly 100% static.
