Three new FM logs via tropo - 8/16/2013

Had a good tropo opening while in Marysville, WA (15mi from home) today and got three new tropo logs. One last night, the other two this morning.

8/15
102.3 - CKWV Nanaimo, BC; TOH ID at 11PM last night mentioning Nanaimo and "The Wave". NEW #236 @ 117mi.

8/16
105.1 - KRSK Molalla, OR; heard at 9:30am this morning with ID "105.1 the Buzz". New #237 at 165mi.
105.9 - KFBW Vancouver, WA; heard a few minutes after the KRSK log, with mention of the iHeartRadio Music Festival, and ID "105.9 The Brew" over KBKS IBOC. New #238 at 165mi.

I also heard KSWW 102.1 like a local (ditto KDUX), 101.7 K269FT Aberdeen, WA, 100 mi at 250w, 101.3 KLWA Westport, WA 110mi at 1200W, 104.7 KDUK Eugene (270mi), 101.9 KINK, 103.3 KKCW, 107.5 KXJM and 106.7 KLTH (all are relogs)

Those are some good catches. Have you ever heard KEHK up here? Is it just me, or does KCMS put out a lot more noise with the sidebands than most other stations? It seems like there's a lot more noise on 105.1 than there is on any other frequency. I totally missed the opening today.
 
IBOC takes over 102.3. CKWV is only heard in good tropo, and KEHK never makes it. I've also tried for KMGE for a long time (94.5) with nada success...
