Got WGN in my car (3/16/2013)

I know I've gotten it before, and I've had two morning catches before, but I can very certainly say I have picked up 720 WGN in my car stereo, as I was hearing a bit of the Blackhawks game (as of this writing, the Hawks are up 5-0 on Dallas in the 2nd period).

I had to tune in in the car as I got out of the stadium once the Port aux Basques Junior Mariners game ended (we lost to Bishop's Falls 6-5 in overtime, goal came with 40.1 seconds to go in the first extra period; OT playing rules are for another story)

Our Pontiac G6 is a pretty good one. Also briefly got KMOX on the same ride home.
 
WGN would be about 1450 miles from Port aux Basques while KMOX would be about 1650 miles. That's impressive! The farthest I've ever been able to pick up on a car radio is KOA (about 1000 miles from either of my locations) and WWL (about 925 miles from my current destination, and slightly farther than KOA from my hometown)
