Hartland, VT:

Nothing

Meriden, CT:

W258AL Waterbury (still listed as Clinton at Radio-Locator), translator for "Spanish Tropical" WMRQ-HD2 Waterbury.
 
Wilmington Delaware

Strong HD signal from WVCW Wilmington with Christian programming. Transmitter is 4 miles to my N so no other stations heard. This station my entire life (60 some years) was WJBR (Just Beautiful Radio). It had easy listening music until the 80's when it morphed into Adult Contemporary. It went all Christmas in mid-November each year. It was a TOTAL shock when Beasley said it was selling the station to VCV America. It generated about 25 pages of discussion on the Philly board. WJBR still exists online and on WBEN HD2 Philadelphia another Beasley station. I spent lots of time in doctors offices as a kid listening to relaxing music from WJBR.
 
East Tennessee: Depending where you are in our area, either WYGO, Madisonville, TN; WKDP, Corbin, KY, or in the Sevierville area, W258DB (WRJZ), or in the norrhwest part of the market, W258DG (WYSH).

Retro/other: Western Ohio, WZPL, Indianapolis if anything.
 
Central Kentucky:

W258DH the translator for 1420 WHBN Harrodsburg, "The Rooster" classic country.
One of my favorites and small town radio at it's best.
"Swap shop", Weddings, Obituaries, and school lunch menus read on the air every morning.

Prior to this translator sign on, the most likely visitor on 99.5 would be a station from Ripley Ohio (transmitter in Bracken Co. KY.) but I haven't heard it in awhile. Calls used to be WAOL with a classic country format. Used to listen to it when running service to NE Kentucky.

Tropo sometimes brought WKDP Corbin my way.
 
Denver, CO -
Local KQMT:
HD1 - The Mountain (classic rock)
HD2 - Comedy 99.5-HD2
HD3 - //KTLF Colorado Springs - "The Light" - contemporary Christian, feeds K292FM (the 1 pm ID that includes all the translators takes about 1½ minutes to complete!)
 
Mankato, MN
KSJN Minneapolis (fringe) Minnesota Public Radio Classical Radio
(we have it locally on 91.5 from Mankato)
 
Clifton, New Jersey

I get WBAI New York, NY. It airs a progressive free-form format of music and talk shows. When WBAI was off the air for maintenance, I received WJBR Wilmington, DE. WJBR is now known as WVCW after being bought by VCY America.
 
Canyon Lake, Texas: 99.5 KISS from San Antonio. Long time and legendary AOR station. Currently running a 90’s/2000’s based Classic Rock format. Strong signal up here: I have not heard anything else on the frequency here.
 
North Iowa:
Just out of range from KDAO-FM/Eldora and KSJN/Minneapolis. Most times, it’s RF bleedover from other frequencies.

Central Kansas:
On certain days, KHKZ/Hays and KHDL/Americus tend to eek in, though typically weak.
 
East SFBA: Probably nothing, as in Vallejo. Might catch the extreme fringes of KLVB if I'm in the right spot. I'll have to check sometime (I don't generally pay much attention to FM, as AM is my main area of DX interest).

Far North Bay in the Lake/Mendocino/Napa tri-county area, I believe it's KNTI, which, last I knew, was a fairly ho hum classic hits station with studios somewhere in or near Lakeport.
