I was picking up several Kansas City stations, Columbia and Sedalia, Mo.
as well as Quincy, IL among others this weekend.  I am located 12 miles SE of Des Moines, Iowa.  It really seemed like a September opening, not something in mid-January!

New Years eve into New Years day down in Dallas there was a huge opening. I was picking up most of the Waco stations along with Austin and Houston.
Fox 26 in houston had lines in it because of a Low power 26 here in the metroplex. same with TV 2,8,11, and 13. I remember last August (2004) ther was a huge opening wherewich let most of the OKC radio and TV stations were coming in even over the the full power Dallas stations. when I turn on My TV and see a channell 6 coming in good I will attempt to scan th FM dial.

I'm enjoying the 3rd consecutive day in a row this afternoon. Listening to 97.5 WZOK Rockford.
