I see WWL there.

That's 2040 miles.

Nice!

I'm not surprised. And in no way am I taking anything away from what's still a great catch.

Last year, I heard WWL on the TA-oriented global tuners DX receiver. I've also heard it just about anywhere I've ever been in Canada. As well as in Hawaii on a car radio when I was a teenager. I think the little extra "oomph" from the directional antenna helps the signal.

The "flip side" of that is that I did NOT hear WWL when I was in Key West earlier this year.
 
Heard WWL here in Western WA twice. Once in Central WA (Yakima) with a 105.3 mention.

No, but the first time I heard it (Central WA) I heard a 105.3 mention. Then I logged it here with a mention of "WWL.com" and a Bedding Plus commercial.

I mean the OP

When I get a unknown station, I try to get it on Camera

Like with 1040 and 1010, I couldn't..I didn't have the Camera with me and I was at my brothers
