May25 08:04 thundering - de WA5IYX   http://sanantonio.justweather.com/#lightbox=p29&tab=w16lb&position=37     (69.152.232.166) 

May25 07:31 And since it's a new subchannel - expect super low-budget "Gina D's Kid's Club" like E/I programming on there too.... > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 07:30 Tr KODE 43/12 & KSNF 46/16 Joplin, MO. 335 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 07:29 Right now it's running infomercials... Big surprise there, huh.  :-)  Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 07:19 Movies! is a News Corporation and Weigel Broadcasting (Me-TV; WCIU) owned new subchannel, carrying, well, MOVIES! > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 07:17 WHBQ 13 Memphis has a new channel. 13-2 is running, "Movies!" network. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 06:29 Tr WAKA 42/8 Selma, AL. 337 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 06:08 Tr WNCF 31/32 Montgomery, AL. 337 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 06:03 Tr WCOV 20 Montgomery, AL. 360 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 05:16 And I'd like an order of skip from Manitoba to Kansas. > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 05:10 @Seattle, my offer would be 4 hours when you would be available to DX. :) - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:50 Tr KOTV 45/6 Tulsa, OK. 404 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 04:48 Tr KNWA 50/51 Rogers, AR. 305 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 04:44 Au quite noticeable over CIII-2 and making FM very noisy - FN26 SW Qc     (142.217.2.209) 

May25 04:44 5-10 is an example. Four + hours of midwest skip, but when I got home I heard one 89.9 signal and it was gone after two minutes. > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:43 No I would not David. The 4 hours of 107.9 may all happen when I am out. I'd like four hours of skip when I am AVAILABLE however! > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:14 Tr WLBT 30/3 Jackson, MS. 337 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 04:10 Tr KFSM 18/5 Fort Smith, AR. 324 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 04:10 Would anyone on here accept 1 day of a sustained 107.9 MUF for 4 hours in exchange for no more Es guaranteed until 2014 (imagine breaking a deal with Murphy)?  In previous years I'd say no but this year I may - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:08 Its funny how I say how much I hate to hear about Murphy so often so I am hearing it more often.     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 04:07 [04:05] I can't speak for the east, but the west has favored directions for Es and endpoints have little or no bearing.  The stations are there, the paths are not ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 04:07 Tr KAFT 9/13 & KHOG 15/29 Fayetteville, AR. 317 mi. Ed W-KY EM56     (207.162.169.84) 

May25 04:07 You are probably right Mike.  There are DTV Es targets for me (shocker) but I bet they won't decode due to Murphy - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:06 UGH...But aurora is good! AM radio fades away and all I have is weak California hard-to-get graveyarders on AM. KNRY 1240 an example. > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:06 Davis: I doubt the transition had anything to do with it except for the fact that you need to pay closer attention now because all of the early warnings are gone.  I looked once, and I don't even think there is a DTV target in Es range for me ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 04:06 But Aurora is good     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:05 Knowing my luck, Murphy is probably giving the east coast as much Es as the west so far, but all endpoints are in the ocean.  So someone on a boat somewhere is having a heyday on their radio - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:04 [4:01] Lol!  And in that scenario, the yearly Es has been warning signs of the impending zap that just happened to affect broadcasting - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:04 I haven't had more than 3 new stations in 1 day since 7/20/2011. I log all because Es is special ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 04:03 We need simultaneous 107.9 Es in both Washington and Washington, DC, as well as Nebraska. Sound good? I'm putting in my bid. > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:03 What I find interesting since the DTV transition is how abrupt FM MUFs are.  When analog TV 2-6 was in via Es, FM would trickle in slowly but steady.  Now if we're not careful, its up to 93 FM instantly without warning, at least here - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 04:01 [03:58] I'd love to see everyone have a great season, providing that it isn't because the sun is prepping for a kill shot ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 04:01 I had a massive, 5-10-13-like opening on 6/29 that year (2010). Colorado, KS, NE, WY. Three hours of good skip. Then ND and MB on 7/5, as well as more CO, ending with San Diego/Tijuana. > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 04:00 Since 2005, my best year was 2010 (125 logs). My best month was Jul 2007 (71 logs). With stats like that, its depressing hearing what eastern DXers get ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 03:59 We need an online device that alerts you with sirens and flashing - "WARNING! OREGON TO NEW MEXICO ON 89.9 MHZ! CHECK RADIO NOW!" :D > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 03:58 [3:55] I agree.  Not at the expense of any DXers *not* getting skip in favor of east coasters, of course, but it should even out (if I had my choice) by July 31 - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 03:58 6m map is 50 MHz...below analog ch.2. The best it can tell you about FM is that MUFs are rising or falling, and from the amount of chasing my tail I have done in the past several years, it gets to FM less than 10% of the time there are targets shown on the map ... Mike     (76.102.95.18) 

May25 03:57 Last year here: 1 in May, 6 in June, 1 in all of July. Only the July one was sustained for over an hour or so. - David FM18     (76.111.73.8) 

May25 03:56 Now we have LPTV's on 6 acting as *LPFMs*, but that will change soon - LP switch off date is 2015 IIRC > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225) 

May25 03:56 It was great to have US analog TV on 87.7 back in the day! > Seattle CN97     (76.22.36.225)
