W281CL-FM 104.1 on 98.5 also

W281CL which used to be Reach, is now broadcasting a Spanish language format in the Marlton area, it is also on 98.5 with a strong signal overpowering BBO, no mention of this station anywhere, its not the Philly LP. On another note, in recent weeks, the new public service station on 92.1 now wipes out VLT completely on a good car radio from Collingswood, Haddonfield, Cherry Hill to Medford and miles south and north on 70, they were usually overpowered by VLT in these sections but not recently, how can they be dominate in areas that was solely VLT's turf for years.​

 
Collingswood, Haddonfield, Cherry Hill, and Medford aren't WVLT's turf. They serve Vineland and surrounding areas. And I believe WBBO's intended market is Ocean County and the eastern part of Burlington County.

But it isn't the new 92.1's area of consideration either, correct?
 
I actually don't know anything about the new 92.1. Don't know what it is or from where it is broadcasting.

Curious if you were instead getting W281CM (licensed to Millvale, but the tower is near Woodstown). They are fed by WJBR-HD3 and are a wilmington targeted Spanish station called "Maxima"

As for 98.5.... honestly not a clue there.

A 16 watt station out of Horsham, Montgomery County, PA is being heard in Burlington County, NJ?!

its very possible during tropo.. and if the height of the site is good. ie.. a taller tower helps, but if the site elevaiton is high up. WZML 92.9 LP gets out apparnetly alot farther than youd think at only 5 watts because of height

Apparently WPEN just added an HD3 and its simulcasting this new 98.5 signal, still don't know where its location is, a strong signal in Burlington county....
 
Don't know if anyone cares but found out they are using the WPST tower off of route 1, near the Oxford valley mall, pretty high up, must be the reason they are wiping out WBBO in the Marlton/Medford area and surrounding sections of Burlington county.

well that thread clears things up, that new signal on the wpst tower really gets out, kudos to them for grabbing that jewel....
 
I can get WBBO still here in Bensalem, but if i change the antenna direction I can get that 98.5 spanish signal or the 98.5 up town LP FM
