FM Frequency of the Week - 95.3 MHz

B

Buckeyes2001

What do you all get on 95.3 FM?

Here in Vermilion, OH it is semi-local WLKR/Norwalk, OH with an AC format and who also carries the Cleveland Indians, Cavaliers, and Ohio State Buckeyes football games as well as local HS football. Tropo will bring in WQTE/Adrian, MI (country) sometimes overtop of WLKR
 
Manistee, MI: Nothing in dead band conditions, but WXRO Beaver Dam, WI or WWSS Tuscorora Township, MI can come in at times
Allendale, MI: A mixture of W237CZ Grand Rapids, MI and WGVS Whitehall, MI
 
In Marysville, WA it's CKZZ Vancouver BC with Virgin Radio. Strong.
Also hear KXXK Aberdeen WA on occasion, I used to hear KXLE Ellensburg WA at my other QTHs but not here - Vancouver is too strong.

Caught via E-skip on this frequency
KBBN Broken Bow, NE (Classic Rock)
KLLY Oildale CA (Hot AC)
KYDN Monte Vista CO (Country)

Northern VA, the 95.3 frequency is dominated by the I-BLOCK from DC area's WPGC, whose transmitter is just east of DC. If I aim the antenna to a certain position, I could get either WZRV Front Royal, VA, about 50 miles away but its transmitter is west of a mountain, sitting on a valley, so the mountain blocks most if its signal toward me. Or I can get Richmond's WKHK; a 47 kW station.
 
Here in Warminster PA(Philly 'burbs), usually splatter from semi-local 95.1 WZZO from Bethlehem or local 95.7 Ben-FM from Philly.
 
In Atascadero, CA it was/is KXTZ "The Beach" on 95.3. It was marginal/weak, but they also had a signal on 100.5 in neighboring Templeton.
 
In Cincinnati on the 95.3 dial.
There is nothing. North of Cincinnati is a Dayton signal called WZLR "95.3 and 101.1 The Eagle" and there is another radio station signal that is barely audible behind is WIKI-FM from Carrollton, KY.
The reason why WIKI is able to be heard sometimes under WZLR is another radio station a defunct translator named "W237BW" of Class-X.
So, in the northern side of Cincinnati. I can Get WZLR and WIKI pretty weak and I used to get W237BW locally in My area. But sadly defunct because it was interfering WZLR and WIKI.
 
This is a local...

95.3 KRTY, San Jose's hot Country. Transmitter sitting high above Los Gatos overlooking over the Silicon valley. Not a very powerful station with only 870 watts, but does sit 262 meters above sea level.

Two repeaters are needed, do to the hilly, mountainous terrain here in the Southern portions of the Santa Clara County
One is for those on the eastern side of the foothills, and serves the Morgan Hill, Gilroy, and south eastern portions of San Jose
The other is for Scotts valley, Ben Lomond, and Felton ( mountain city's ), but I'm sure how good the signal is in their.
