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

104.3 MHz in Chehalis, WA prior to KMNT: Probably KAFE, as they recently moved from 104.3 to 104.1

New one: 98.7 MHz in Marinette, WI
 
You think KAFE would have made it that far south? I also just remembered that KCMS had a translator there, K282AB, but coming through on 5 I can never pick up what is now K280FF. Those are probably the most likely stations that would have come in.

If WQLH 98.5/Green Bay isn't an issue then 98.7 in Marinette, WI is probably a weak WGLI, WLDN, W254AG with WGLI being most common @100kW

I think it would be a sloppy mess of WGLI and WLDN, just like WQLH and WUPS in my hometown. Just across Green Bay (on the Door Peninsula), WLDN would likely be on top.
 
I think I can get KAFE outside of the Olympia area S, but it only comes in for a few miles, until KFIS, or until the KMTT translator.

99.3 MHz in Manistee, MI:

If WOUF is dark, then it's probably a weak WOWN/Shawano, WI. WATZ/Alpena, MI probably pops in here and there along with the occasional WJQK/Zeeland, MI

Right on the money! WOWN is usually there but quite weak. I've heard WATZ and WJQK a couple of times during good tropo. One night during tropo WJQK was quite strong, along with WGHN (92.1) and WMPA (93.1). During really strong tropo to the southwest, WMYX's IBOC may show up.

For 1190 in Jefferson City, MO, I was thinking a mix of KQQZ and KPHN with the rare KREB during the day and a mess of several stations at night, likely including KPHN, KQQZ, and WOWO
 
Rather weak WBIG 100.3 in DC, as I heard it in Spotsylvania. The 100.3 south of Richmond is class A and it didn't make it in Spots in "regular" non-tropo condition.
 
There must have been some tropo-scatter then the day I monitored 100.3 from Spots...I was getting a weak WBIG fighting with WARV...almost 50/50 between the 2 - classic rock and oldies mixing together.

Probably a rather weak WFDL/Lomira, WI with WMLQ/Manistee, MI and WQDC/Sturgeon Bay, WI making appearances in dead band conditions. Any bit of tropo enhancement over Lake Michigan would bring in WMLQ as the dominant signal.
 
New one:

1040 kHz in Bar Harbor, ME

I think it would be nothing during the day. Critical hours maybe WYSL/Avon, NY and a jumble at night with WBZ's I-BLOCK to contend with. Maybe WHO on nights of great E/W DX.

That's what I was thinking as well. I think WMLQ would stop the seek on some days as some of the Class A's in the Door County area stop the seek occasionally in Manistee, MI (WRLU, WSBW, WLGE)
