FM Frequency of the Week - 92.5 MHz

B

Buckeyes2001

What can you get on 92.5 FM?

Here in Vermilion, OH, it's always WVKS/Toledo, OH 'Kiss FM" Top-40. There is another 92.5 in Alliance, OH, WDJQ 'Q92' also top-40 but I never seem to get it here.
 
In Bellevue/Bothell, WA, 92.5 is local KQMV [CHR].

In Pacific Beach 92.5 again is KQMV.

In Portland, OR it's IBOC from KGON.

In Yakima I get either a local CSN translator from Yakima or KZHR Dayton, WA [Regional Mexican].

In Memphis, TN it's alwawys KWYN-FM from Wynne, AR.
 
Northern VA,

WINC-FM Winchester, VA . Tropo openings once brought the 92.5 Salisbury-Ocean City, MD area along the Atlantic coast, and WYFL Henderson, NC when WINC-FM was temporarily off air.
 
Analogue (not Ibiquity; that actually shows up on 92.6) sideband noise from KGON and the KZRI translator on 92.7.

In fact, where I am I can't even hear the Ibiquity hash on 92.6. I think KGON and the translator take it out, but the one on 92.0 is still perfectly usable (the KAWZ translator on 91.9 just barely hits me here.)
 
Locally in South Florida, we have a pirate or two.

DX-range stuff is mainly WFSX 92.5 Fox News Radio in Estero, with a trace of Spanish WYUU "Maxima 92.5" Safety Harbor/Tampa.

The Wynne AR 92.5 has been mentioned; I caught it last year, and it led me to my first DTV catch of WMC-DT 5 the same day! :)

In Durham, North Carolina, we get a consistent, albeit slightly static-y signal from Henderson-licensed Bible Broadcasting Network affiliate WYFL. When the station is knocked off the air by weather conditions or power outages, we can sometimes hear Easley, SC's WESC or Moncks Corner, SC's WCKN.
 
92.5 WINC FM dominates the dial from the PA line all the way up the Shenandoah Valley to Waynesboro and both sides of it all the way.....They have one killer signal in Virginia!
 
In Foley, Alabama it's W223AX, translator for Foley's only station, WHEP (AM). I'm within eyesight of the tower so it owns almost the entire 92 MHz portion of the dial, except for a weak WZEW Fairhope, AL on 92.1 and WBLX on 92.9 with very strong IBOC sidebands. Needless to say, DX opportunities in this range are extremely limited.

Before the translator came on, it was not usual to hear WPAP Panama City, Florida, which is a good 120 air miles from here.
 
Most of the time, I get splatter from 1st adjacent WPWX Hammond Indiana on 92.3. If tropo is right, I can get WCPY Dekalb, IL.
 
I have a local Tunes 92.5 WBLH in Watertown now thats been on the air for a few years now. But before that it was quite common to get WBEE with a country format from Rochester during any tropo. You can still get WBEE at times if you get far enough away from WBLH's transmitter.
 
I hear 92.5 WEKS The Bear from Griffin,Georgia from time to time
 
Normally, absolutely nothing but the boring CHR Kissin' 92.5 from Joplin, MO.

KOMA/Oklahoma City is an occasional visitor.

Believe it or not I also have heard KZPS out of Dallas. (341 Miles)
 
92.5 The Bear from Senoia,Georgia or WEKS from Griffin,Georgia
 
Here 92.5 is a local, WCKN (a country music station). They had flipped formats several times before, but went back to country last year, a format they had their entire time when they were in Manning, SC as WHLZ.

WHLZ could be heard as a local most of the way from Lumberton, NC to Charleston. Even now, they probably have one of the best FM signals in SC. They can be heard as far N as Columbia on a good day, and in almost every square mile of SC east of I-95 with a good radio.

WESC similarly owns SC west of the Columbia metro.
