Aha, they gave about 4 locations but missed the Trenton listing.  I use an
old Zenith (40 + yrs old FM), actually a Zenith R3000 portable unit and had
fairly good reception although weak in comparison to other stations.  As a
side note, this analog receiver is exceptional on medium wave reception.

Thanks for the info Rich, much appreciated.
