What do you think you could get if you were...

[ftballfan]

New one: 100.1 MHz in Green Bay, WI

Provided that WNCY 100.3 doesn't use I-BLOCK and you can get around them, you'd probably get alternating signals from:

WPJP/Port Washington, WI
WCUZ/Bear Lake, WI
WRHN/Rhinelander, WI
and occasionally, WDDC/Portage, WI

WNCY doesn't use IBOC. I would say WRHN would have a slight edge due to their running 100kW, but WCUZ would take over east of town and WPJP would come in well south of town. During tropo, WCUZ would likely mess with WRHN in the city with talk (as WKZG (Class A west of Green Bay) dominates 104.3 in Manistee [20 miles south of Bear Lake] during tropo).

Next: 97.9 MHz in Bear Lake, MI

 

[Buckeyes2001]

97.9 MHz in Bear Lake, MI:

Probably alternating WIHC/Newberry, MI and WGRD/Grand Rapids, MI with others such as WSPT/Stevens Point, WI with WLUP/Chicago or WJLB/Detroit in tropo conditions. This all provided there's no I-BLOCK from first adjacents

 

[Buckeyes2001]

New one:

88.1 MHz in Cozad, NE

 

[crainbebo]

88.1 in Cozad is likely a mix of KCNT Hastings, NE and KMLV Ralston, NE.

I'll pose one of my own:

95.7 in Ottumwa, Iowa

 

[Tim from Springfield IL]

Another one:

94.9 in St. Charles, MO if you could null KSHE splatter

New one: 94.9 MHz in Muskegon, MI

Probably a mess between W235BN/Grand Rapids, MI, WMMQ/Lansing, MI, WKZC/Scottville, MI, WSJM/Benton Harbor, MI. Also WOLX/Barabo, WI would be common. You'd need a good directional antenna to separate them but you'd still have W235BN and WMMQ in pretty much the same bearing from Muskegon.

I was driving through the Muskegon area on Friday and I was getting mostly WMMQ, with an occasional WOLX. I was getting W235BN around Nunica. WMMQ was still dominant on 94.9 as far north as Rothbury. WKZC is one of the worst underperformers I can think of on FM. For 17kW from between Ludington and Manistee, you'd think they would make it to Muskegon. And I haven't seen an STA for low power operations.

During E-skip, could you also be able to pull in WAAG Galesburg, IL and/or WDKB DeKalb, IL in Muskegon?

It would take a good tropo from the SW for that to happen.

95.7 in Ottumwa, Iowa

I know this one because I've done it more times than I'd like to remember. Absolutely nothing. Maybe slight splatter from 95.9 in Fairfield if you're in the right part of town.

 

[crainbebo]

There's two tropo stations within 150 miles on 95.7 - KQWC and KSWI. Suppose those 2 would be heard in Ottumwa during tropo.

KWWR Mexico, MO might also be a tropo/e-skip possibility in Ottumwa as well.

 

[ngriffin]

Grew up in Ottumwa... most common visitor on 95.7 was KWWR Mexico, MO. I lived south of town on a hill, so it didn't take much to hear it. Might harder down in the river valley, but probably still the most likely catch at 91kW at 1181 feet. As for KQWC, KSWI, and the new Anamosa station, all probably make it there from time to time, especially if you have a directional antenna that can null KWWR. KCHZ from Ottawa, KS probably gets in there occasionally.

 

[Tim from Springfield IL]

Here's another one:

990 in Beatrice, NE

 

[ngriffin]

My guess would be Russell, KS followed by Storm Lake, IA.

 

[Buckeyes2001]

My guess would be Russell, KS followed by Storm Lake, IA.

Probably those along with KRMO. I think these stations would be more likely heard around critical hours than mid-day given power and distance from Beatrice, NE. Nights would be all CBW

Next: 88.7 MHz in Green Bay, WI

Next: 88.7 MHz in Green Bay, WI

Since no one answered this, I am thinking it's all WIAA (with them sometimes stopping seek)

New one: 103.5 MHz in Montrose, MI

 

[Lawppy]

I'd also have to go with all WIAA in Green Bay.

Montrose, MI (103.5)
You'd probably hear a mix of WMUZ Detroit, MI and WTCM Traverse City, MI. Possibly CIDC Orangeville, ON if Ontario Tr is up.

Could WCAZ Carthage, IL also make an occasional appearance in Beatrice on 990--even with only 1kw but with a powerful signal for its power due to the ground conductivity in that part of western Illinois?

I was in Flushing last summer and it was a sloppy mix of those two, with WTCM having a slight edge.
