I'm headed back to St. Louis from my current home in suburban Bethalto, IL. I've been wanting to return for three years, almost as soon as I got here. At one point I announced I was moving, and it fell through. This time it's for real.
My reception here is much better. See my website for a list of tapeables. Following are the stations I won't likely be able to get:
88.7 WSIE Jazz
89.9 WLCA Modern Rock
91.1 WIBI CCM (Carlinville, IL)
95.5 WFUN-FM Urban AC
96.7 WCXO Oldies (Carlyle, IL)
97.1 KFTK Talk
97.5 WLDJ Cl. Rock (Carlyle, IL)
99.7 WXAJ CHR (Springfield, IL)
100.3 KATZ-FM Urban
104.1 WHHL CHR/R
105.3 WAOX satellite Hot AC (Reiverbend-area suburbs, IL)
106.1 WSMI-FM Country
as well as many of the metro AM's
The reasons for my poor city reception are:
1. Distance from rimshot towers
2. Interference from being blocks away from WVRV's 50kw tower and 10 miles from the community tower farm
I can still record some of the above from work (95.5, 100.3, 104.1), but I'll be less flexible about when.
If anyone wants to trade for local St. Louis airchecks, I'll continue trading through the end of the month.<P ID="signature">______________
