I listened as I thought the rock station from Ripon Wisconsin changed their format and the station identified itself as Mix 96.1 San Antonios best music. I couldn't believe it and looked it up and it is from San Antonio! FM skips like AM does at times. Who would ever think you could get Texas stations from up North here. It was in super strong here as well. Other people in the area said they were getting Spanish stations overtaking their local stations. Anyone ever have this experience on the FM dial?
Not normally. My dad explained short wave radios to me once... Could have been some sort of special atmospheric event or condition that allowed that to travel that far. Or someone relaying it from closer somehow.
Spanish stations would make sense coming from the san Antonio area as well.
Is 96.1 normally a local radio channel because I wouldn't think it could overtake a local radio source.
