HD Radio (FM) near Brattleboro, VT and I-91 in MA

[KML0224]

While in the north end of Brattleboro, VT on April 13th, I tinkered around with a $50 Insignia FM HD Radio "Walkman". The only stations I could get broadcasting anything with HD radio were:

WSNI-FM 97.7 Keene, NH
WINQ-FM 98.7 Winchester/Keene, NH
WKNE-FM 103.7 Keene, NH

WKNE-FM HD2 was a station calling itself Keene's Classics 99.1, sounding like a classic hits type station. Where is the 99.1 FM they're talking about? I didn't even receive a hint of it. ???

Meanwhile, along I-91 in the Northampton, MA area, I tuned WLZX-FM 99.3 HD2 and heard a station calling itself Hits 94.3, which I did get a faint signal of for a few miles. Any idea where that signal is coming from?

99.1 FM is a 250 watt station in Keene, NH. 94.3 is about a 60 watt station near Amherst, MA. These were both originally translators of their parent stations, but apparently they're putting different programming on them now, and that programming also on the HD2's of the parent stations.
