Here are some FM DX Catches from the last 2 months or so. Time & dates are in the Google Drive audio file links below. This isn't everything I've heard, but my favorites at my QTH in Laramie, WY using a modified Sony XDR F1HD and 5 element Kathrein Scala YA7
THIS one has to be my favorite! KXLU-FM 88.9 Los Angeles, CA 2900 Watts at 10 feet HAAT. The signal is a bit iffy at times, its real strong though for the first 40 seconds then picks back up after 5 minutes. Audio: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1LX1iSHbsgV3xkzBPqDA4tZPivZYctlgG KNTE-FM 101.7 Bay City, TX with a game between the Houston Astros and Oakland A's. The band was pretty dead but the MUF suddenly spiked and produced this. The signal fades out after 30 seconds but comes back at 2 minutes 40 seconds.
