Here in Vermilion, OH most of the time it is a varying signal from WMUZ/Detroit, MI with a Christian format. I have also caught CIDC/Orangeville, OH with a CHR format as well as WNND/Pickerington, OH with a 'Rewind' classic hits format.

FM Frequency of the Week - 103.5 MHz

Here in Pickerington, Ohio, of course, it's all WNND all the time. The signal transmits from a cell-phone tower about five miles east of me on the south side of I-70 (about a mile west of Ohio 310, for those who might look while driving in this region).
It gets out maybe 50 miles to the west, north and south but gets clobbered out near Zanesville, Ohio, by signals on 103.3 and 103.7. That said, both of them are weak enough that 103.5 can be heard on the north side of Zanesville, especially on top of taller hills.

Here in Bremerton, WA (west of Seattle), it's usually IBOC hash from 103.7 KHTP (Hot 103.7), but on good tropo days or some higher hills in Kitsap County, CHQM from Vancouver, BC (QM-FM) will occasionally make an appearance.
You keep picking my locals LOL! All WIMZ, all the time in Knoxville and I've never caught them off
Back in Dayton and vicinity it was a little more interesting. WGRR Cincinnati most of the time, better in the south suburbs. Go east and WNND is a possibility. With really good tropo, WMUZ has been known to come in

A few years ago making a drive between Columbus and Springfield, I made sure to monitor the 103.5 frequency. I remember WNND holding its own until just past the Madison-Clark County line, which coincidentally is the line between the Columbus and Dayton DMAs. WGRR took over just east of Springfield, but for a few miles it was quite a battle.
(Incidentally, I am pretty sure WNND's tower had moved to its current location by then, as opposed to where it used to be closer to Baltimore, Ohio, maybe seven miles east-southeast of the current tower.)
Luckily for anyone who wants to hear WNND programming, the "Rewind" format is simulcast on 104.3, which comes in pretty well out to our west.

In Houston, particularly the Western suburbs, KPBA is a popular rim shot / DX target. Depending on location, it can be almost as strong as a local.
That's about right as I recall. 104.3 was a little better in the Dayton area, usually battling it out with WNLT, the Cinncinnati-area K-Love station
103.5 here in Charleston is WEZL, a heritage country station. It has been country since the mid 70s. When it started though, it was easy listening. That's why it has the WEZL call letters. Their nickname is "The Weasel". One time I caught them off the air for a minute and heard WRCQ from Dunn, NC (classic rock).
