UPDATE-10:20AM
95.3: no New ??? station anymore, just Virgin Radio
103.3: tropo/e-skip mess!! garble including "Bringing you the greatest memories", spanish garble, and faint bursts. Sounds like E-skip!!
-crainbebo
I think the memories station is KZPO in Lindsay, CA, the spanish might be mountain skip from KWLN Wilson Creek, and there's others in there too.

The conditions have gone CRAZY with TROPO!!!
Brief bursts of KWJJ 99.5, possible KUPL, possible 104.1 from Portland, and KINK with ads for Jim Fisher Honda, Shane Co, mentions of University of Phoenix, others.
Even KKCW's coming in right now.
TROPO-TROPO-ALERT-ALERT!!!
Tune your radios now to any open frequency, you may pick up Portland clearly!

ty, on 91.5 I'm picking up a WEAK KOPB under all the slop from KBCS, 93.7 is just JR FM alone, 103.3 is KMTT translator/bleed/weak KKCW, 101.9 is weak KINK, 101.1 is CFMI/mess, Ch. 2 is faint garble, Ch. 3 is a medium-volume hum, Ch. 10's static or bleed. Which TV are you using? I'm using a (kinda crappy) 5' B&W TV.
