FM Frequency of the Week: 92.1

Central Kansas:
Occasional reception of KREP/Belleville.

North Iowa:
A weak to non-existent KRUE/Waseca, depending on antenna positioning.
 
East Tennessee: Zero, zilch, nada. Powerhose WUOT on 91.9's iBoc wipes any other possibilities away.

Retro/other. I worked at the 92.1 in Wapakoneta, Ohio. It signed off at midnight, and was replaced by WBST, Muncie from Ball State University. (WBST started David Letterman's career). They signed off at 4 or 5am, I'm not sure when it returned to air later that morning.
When in Dayton, Ohio, it was always local WROU.
 
Happy 4th, everyone!

From Cheyenne, WY:
A very fringe signal from KJMN in Denver, and usually it disappears under KUWR's IBOC. (Or as I call it, I-Block). However, during some good tropo events, it will lock in with its own HD signal.

I have recieved some E-skip on 92.1, but I generally don't have that much luck with this particular frequency.

Travel:
Pretty much as soon as you get out from under KUWR (91.9), the KJMN signal improves dramatically. By the time you get to Loveland, it sounds local.

In Cody, KCWB is one of the strongest signals in town due to having 100kw, and only being 5 miles away from Downtown with no obstacles (i.e. terrain)
 
Nothing in Pickerington, Ohio except slop from neighboring country giant WCOL on 92.3.
gr8 mentioned the 92.1 that now is country WFGF from Lima, though still licensed to Wapak. I remember its days as top 40 WAXC, broadcasting from a small house in Moulton along old route 33A. My family and I would drive by every time we went to visit my grandparents in St. Marys, and one of my cousins attended the elementary school just down the street from the station. That was probably the main top-40 option for my generation in that area given that Dayton and Fort Wayne stations are a bit too far away to be considered local.
Like almost all the other Lima stations, we'd gain or lose "92 Zoo" crossing the ridge between Bellefontaine and Columbus.

WERM became WAXC, which was A/C days and CHR nights. Then they went Music of Your Life for a short time, back to A/C then eventually the move-in to Lima and 92-ZOO.
 
On vacation last week.

Smithtown, Long Island
WLNG, Sag Harbor, Long Island weak. Needs a selective radio to fish out from WSHR 91.9

New Fairfield, Conn.
WLNG, Sag Harbor, Long Island moderate. On a hill facing east. Surprisingly strong despite WLNG being a Class A and quite far away. Much better signal compared to Smithtown, Long Island.
