FM Frequency of the Week: 93.9

Status
Not open for further replies.
Tyler, TX:

A weak to fair country "Coin 93-9' KOYN Paris, TX/Hugo, OK. Was a lot easier to listen to it before the pesky LPFM signed on next door.

"Big 93-9" from Corpus makes appearances here when conditions are right.
 
93.9 MHz

W230AL - Cocoa FL - WJFP-WJCB - Urban/gospel (sold to WVVO 1140 Orlando and relocated) in 2022....

CP for another translator in Cocoa pending

WMIA - Miami Beach FL - 93-9 – MIA - Rhythmic AC - 2016

retro....

WMTM Moultrie GA Cruisin’ 94 Oldies (Mike Harvey) So. GA 2007 (severe weather across So. Georgia)

kw - melbourne fl
 
Wilmington Delaware

Mostly splatter from WSTW 93.7 Wilmington and WIP 94.1 Philadelphia. I have a logging of WKYS Washington DC a few years ago.
 
East Tennessee: W230BR translator for non-comm WDVX. If there's any DX, especially if the translator off the air, it's Spanish WQMT, Hopewell TN (Chattanooga), and less often WMEV, Marion, VA (once known as 93-9, 94FM).Rounding the Smoky Mountains will have the 3 stations taking turns.

Retro/other: Dayton area: Now WBKS (former WLWD, once the calls of Dayton's Channel 2), Columbus Grove (Lima), OH. in the northern part of the market. Mercer/Auglaize County area would be WBKS. Before it signed on, CKLW-FM (CIDR) would occasionally make it. I remember driving in Sprongfield and hearing it, but nothing else from Windsor/Detroit.

In both Dayton and East Tennessee, I've had Eskip reception of KSWN, McCook, NE
 
Denver, CO: Part Two of the "Aurora Triangle" of first-adjacent LPFMs and translators, and the inspiration for that name: KETO-LP Aurora. No, they won't provide dietary information. "ETO" in this case stands for "Ethiopian". KETO has programming in Ethiopian languages and others for various immigrant communities in and around Aurora and nearby east Denver. It's been on the air since 2017. (The station's website seems rather broken, though.) I'm just outside the city-grade contours; the signal reaches to the other (west) side of downtown Denver but doesn't trigger stereo reception there. The Ethiopian music is like nothing I had ever heard before.
 
Kenosha, WI- WLIT Chicago, one of the better Chicago signals up here across the Cheddar Curtain. A whiff of tropo will bring in powerhouse WDOR Sturgeon Bay. Have also heard CIDR (CKLW-FM) Windsor, ON

BTW, WLIT was originally WEBH, standing for "Edgewater Beach Hotel", then WWEL and WLAK. WXRT was originally WSBC-FM.
 
I will have to fix my master list. WXRT was indeed WSBC-FM; rock music famously took over bit by bit, knocking off foreign-language programming.
 
From Aberfoyle, Ontario CFWC-FM country (about 20 miles south) dominates the frequency day and night on my Sangean 803a whip. I'll run an overnight hourly scan on the RSP1 on longwire to see if anyone else is heard
 
Interesting channel in Rochester NY. These days it's mostly splatter from local WZNE on 94.1 and a fringe signal from WDNY-FM in Danville, 45 miles south, but before those came on, Ottawa on 93.9 was fairly regular, especially in the summer.

Nothing locally around Columbus, but WBKS has some solid reach across western and northwest Ohio. I am not sure where WBKS and CIDR collide, but guessing it's mostly in the southern and southwest reaches of metro Toledo.
It's another one of those Lima-area stations that is solid until you reach the Bellefontaine ridge, then disappears on the east side heading toward Columbus.

You may recall when this station signed on, ratings were attributed to CIDR, even with CIDR not normally reaching the Lima area.
 
Lol no, I did not know that. CIDR came in very well in Toledo when I was in college and probably still does, well enough that I could easily listen in the car. If its total range was about like that of 89X, the signal probably faded out between North Baltimore and Findlay.

Fun fact is I used to get the 89x facility in its former life as CJOM in Mercer County pretty regularly. CKLW-FM, not so much. But the educational part of the band was pretty empty then
 
South Mississippi:

W230CR Slidell, LA - translator of WSLA 1560 (news/talk), and to the north there's also
W230CS Columbia, MS - translator of WFFF 1360 Real Country.
These have also come in at times:
KMXR Corpus Christi, TX - Big 93.9 (classic hits)
WTBX Hibbing, MN (hot adult contemporary)
