FM Frequency of the Week - 90.3 MHz

[Buckeyes2001]

Back to the non-comm band...what do you get on 90.3?

In Vermilion, OH its local WCPN/Cleveland, OH with NPR.

90.3 was home to WAFG my local in Ft. Lauderdale, but they are off the air right now and between owners.

So, at this time, faintly I am getting WLVF Haines City, WEJF Palm Bay, and Radio Progreso in La Habana.

And...I actually received WCPN via meteor scatter last week!

In Bellevue, WA it's local KEXP Seattle owned and operated by the University of Washington.

In Pacific Beach, WA usually nothing, sometimes a station would pop in very faintly and weakly with no ID but only occasionally.

In Yakima, WA it's KNWY Yakima [NWPR].

In Portland, OR it's KZRI Welches, OR [Air 1].

Here in Baldwin County, Alabama the only station I hear with regularity is the MPB station in Biloxi. If conditions are very good, I can get the HD to decode.

Northern VA, I seldom check anything in the 88-92 noncommercial section. At 90.3, I get nothing. On ordinary radios(that is, non-DSP radios with ordinary FM selectivity), I would get splatter from C-Span 90.1 from DC.

 

[Darth_vader]

Sideband of KQAC with weak sideband interference from KBOO, and some slight audio from the KZRI translator in Welches (for the most part, KQAC walks on it.)

 

[BigDave]

Bleedover from WABE 90.1

 

[RyanHoward]

Warminster PA(Philly 'burbs):

Nothing but splatter from local 90.1 WRTI(Temple's station).

 

[stormy01]

Crystal Lake, IL (40 miles NW of Chicago)
WBLV Twin Lake, MI (Hear this one most often over WMBI's I-BLOC)
WBCL Ft. Wayne, IN (Hear occasionally when there's Tropo)
WHLA La Crosse, WI (Haven't heard in years)

 

[foreverchanges1975]

In Memphis it's WMAV Mississippi Public Broadcasting from Oxford.

I get 1st adjacent interference from both WMBI Chicago (grandfathered 100kw Class B) & even stronger 1st adjacent interference from a newer Class B1 station on 90.5, WRTW Crown Point, IN, operated by the First Baptist Church of Hammond, IN, though licensed to Hyles Anderson College, owned by the same church.

In Bellingham, WA, it's KQOW, a repeater of KUOW Seattle that was until about a year ago a translator of KUOW. 1st adjacent CBCV Victoria (90.5) also booms in up here.
