Musica Italia 92.7 FM??

B

Buckeyes2001

This morning around 10:45 AM Eastern Time while driving in Vermilion, OH I was picking up a station on 92.7 playing music in Italian ranging from upbeat dance tunes to slower tunes and identifying itself as 'Musica Italia 92.7 FM' occasionally between songs. Signals from Leamington, ON and London, ON were mixing in but this station was dominant. Upon checking the frequency again around 1:00 PM I was getting a mix of CJSB/Leamington, ON, BX93/London, ON and a classic rock station from somewhere all mixing together with CJSB being dominant and no sign of the Italian station. I was hearing this station while moving and with a rather steady signal so I've ruled out a satellite radio transmitter. Anyone have any idea what this might be?
 
Typically on a Sunday morning in many small communities, there will be ethnic programs (typically brokered). I once lived in a town where the Italian-American hour went up against the Polish-American hour on the two local stations.

There are two 92.7 in Ohio. Neither look like they would carry Italian on Sunday.
 
I'm thinking I was either hearing a pirate station or some other station coming in perhaps via E-skip or tropo doing an ethnic show like that as there was e-skip activity that day though I'm not sure when it began and when the MUF was into the FM band.

The only other thing I can think of is perhaps I mistook 'Musica Italia' for 'Musica Romantica' which is an FM station located in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico (XHVAY) on 92.7. Now if someone can confirm whether or not there was an E-skip opening from Ohio to Puerto Vallarta between about 9:40 am and 11am Eastern Time, Sunday, June 3?? I started hearing this station around 9:40am and thought it was Spanish music but then about an hour later when I heard what I thought was 'Musica Italia 92.7 FM' I thought oh so this is Italian music I'm hearing (the 2 languages do sound similar).

Haven't heard any trace of this station since and I never heard any foreign language songs on the frequency before.
