Radio Ink headlines this morning: John Boy And Billy Enter Ocala should read: John Boy and Billy enter Yankeetown, Or: John Boy and Billy enter Ocala through the side door, Or: John Boy and Billy MapQuests Yankeetown. Curious what kind of signal this Class A really puts into Ocala. Anyone with ears over there hear The Big Show this morning??

WXOF in Ocala?

WXOF is generally VERY rough in Ocala. Western side of Ocala has the best shot. Around the square, etc. Forget it.

What market size is that?
WXOF provides a crummy signal to Ocala, However its still very much listenable on a good car radio. Just not on the Car Radio I have. But don't except reception on a household Boombox or a cheaper car radio. I know because thats all the person I live with will listen to. The signal is worse the on the SE side of town due to interference from WDBO-FM.
Then again the signal is 35 miles away from Downtown Ocala and is only a Class A at 3,500 Watts.
The signal in Ocala is still better than sister station WXCV 95.3 however.

Levy Park, which is next to Yankeetown (WXOF's COL), is one heck of a DX spot, though! AM *and* FM, I'd say!
Also the end of the Ozello Road, which leads out of Crystal River and winds (not quite as bad as SF's Lombard Street, but pretty winding) for 11 miles, is a great spot as well.
WXOF reception > WXCV reception helps due to 96.3 being a much lesser-used frequency in FL, not as prone to co-channel interference.
Aw, now I wanna go back again....
