WOLX is a "grandfathered" facility...WOLX serves the Madison market and surrounding region from Baraboo (roughly 30 miles away) If 94.9 were built today at 1299' (396m) HAAT they would be limited to about 7.2 kW not the 37kW the station (and their listeners) currently enjoy!  I agree WOLX is a great station!   see: http://www.w9wi.com/articles/grand_fm.htm

WOLX is an excellent station. I've listened in the car from the Dells to Kenosha. Great signal.

Kenosha? Did you mean Kenosha County?  If you are/were getting WOLX anywhere near the WIIL tower, you must have one h*ll of a radio! (What is your receiver anyways?)

Actually it was more like Racine as I misspoke. I was listening on a delco car radio.

Yeah, I've heard WOLX around Waukesha and parts of Milwaukee County without much effort.  Never tried to hold it as far to the south as Racine, but I suppose it's feasible without having a fancy dx setup.   Have ever gotten WOLX at home in the NW suburbs on a couple of those days/evenings when the tropospheric ducting was really going at it.   That's tough because of the distance and because of WLS-FM's HD sidebands.

Agree that WOLX is a very good station!

I can get 'em fine in the norther 'burbs anytime... they stream live on my Dell Inspiron!

True, but then you are subject to all of those damn PSAs that are inserted in place of real ads.  Wow are they lame!

Irony: this afternoon I was picking up a weak signal from WOLX on my Grundig G8 and it's cousin, the Tecsun PL-310 at my house about 25 miles NNW of Chicago.  Couldn't pick it up on any of my other radios, which were only picking up slop from WIIL (and not WLS-FM). 

Not a peep from anything else in the Madison area, which goes to show how impressive of a signal they have.
