Es for sure yet only matches TMJ 1416 2 NBC in clearer now, b/w without sound, NBC logo bottom left is flashing with a bottom flip-banner (not a quiz show) banner says "FOREVER YOUNG" and the name of a person... and something else 3 more of a mess with shadows and looked like man at a desk - WEDU? 5 still blank 6 still blank 1418 2 NBC very good during ads 1419 3 bad shadows with ads at same time as 2, one is a shadow of a Mannwich ad 1421 3 almost out now with b/w shadows and flickers, another sound briefly in (not local) 1422 3 ABC logo seen with shadows b/w very good over local, then local back with colour and fades - ABC soaps KIII and KATC both have One Life To Live at this time - skip seems quite short today, so probably KATC 1423 4 out - had been steady same as before (likely TMJ local) 2 Es but not much of a picture 3 offset shadows, but local quite strong 1425 move antenna closer toward Houston 2 still the same as before; extreme CCI without a picture 3 still the same as before - weaker local with shadows over top 1426 2 breaking in with a picture that looks like a PBS almost, not a soap, but only flickers in with man at desk KACV PBS has the "Donna Dewberry Show" Elegant Table episode; likely this is it 1429 3 almost stable b/w poor now with center having edge of picture line from skip 1430 4 Montel b/w without sound but clear logo and picture for under a minute, but NO MATCHES for this time slot - WDAF Kansas City matches!!! 1430 2 Bob Ross painting b/w with clear audio, bad picture, but stable - this is KACV's "Best of the Joy of Painting": Oval Barn 1430 2 Tyra logo b/w after Bob Ross then Bob Ross yet again - NO MATCH for Tyra either! - (later: KTVI St Louis is a match - 1pm CT!!! Short skip!) 1434 2 Daystar in strong with perfect sound, good colour, and clear logo upper right 2 flipping between 3 stations - Daystar, Tyra, and Bob Ross all clearly seen; no sound except Daystar (KACV, KTVI, KDTN) 3 stable local in colour now 1435 2 Tyra in STRONG with CC and logo and Channel 2 logo bottom right, great!!! - still no program match though (later matched to KTVI) 2 flipping around between Daystar and Tyra 1437 3 is ALL CCI now 4 is in with b/w picture with what looked like news promo, then a soap; neither a CBS nor ABC match (That leaves only: WOAI/WTMJ Days of Our Lives & KCNC Bold and the Beautiful - thinking it's local TMJ) 1441 2 group sitting in chairs talking, with banner on lower screen not moving but just flipping; looks like NBC logo... 2 audio saying "Today on Breakthrough" (Daystar program match) - still all Daystar audio (was previously preaching)... but the ladies in chairs has no sound and the picture is never clear enough to read the words - is the NBC Today Show KJRH (late edition) 3 all CCI with a little local breaking through 2 very good in b/w and colour and perfect audio but during commercials... 1446 4 faint soap in on/off 3 stable local b/w with sound and some minor CCI on/off 2 less stable now that commercials are finished (naturally) 2 NBC stable on/off finally with good colour and sound showing "Let The Cooke Decide" talking about Bill Clinton Bill and trying food NBC flashing logo with the banner that says "GUIDING LIGHT" (likely pre-empted) - this was the women talking; Houston likely Guiding Light soap opera is a CBS show... but there was an NBC logo CLEARLY - what the hell IS this? (later: This is KJRH Today Show) 1452 move the antenna further toward the west 2 CCI-filled picture b/w with some pictures and audio 2 NBC very good perfect sound and blurry, yet quite clear NBC picture during commercials, back to "Cooke" then instantly multiple NBC promos (all one) 1455 3 CCI b/w, local logo under CCI... no distant pic 5 had been in and 4 too when antenna turned, but now out 2 NBC silverdollarcity.com ad (Branson MO) on NBC then straight into Montel (see next) - KJRH 1457 Montel starting at 1457 (my clocks must be off) - KJRH Tulsa (program match also) 1458 2 NBC PERFECT MONTEL!! Light blur, but otherwise perfect! - KJRH, impressive!! 1459 2 perfect audio of a soap broke in briefly under near perfect Montel picture (KJRH) - WBRZ, KMID, WBAY only soap matches - likely KMID, reluctant to believe this is a local with perfect audio... and KMID is on the exact path of the antenna and Tulsa 3 is all CCI 4 nothing at all 5 CBS b/w parallel to local 9, likely Green Bay - KFSM is also a match in this general area (all have the same schedule), am going with Es over local here (on direct antenna bearing) 1506 4 in with talk show 6 in but with local radio 3 all CCI 2 now all CCI 1508 4 big logo full screen just when changing channel but wasn't paying great deal of attention... then the Montel logo this is either WOAI or WTMJ - WOAI almost sure, because TMJ logo would have been far more familiar, and this one was italic like WOAI 1508 looks like skip moved 2 in but rough viewing of Ellen show - KNOP and KSNC are the only Ellen matches - quite localized so almost certainly KSNC here (see Ch 3 below for confirmation on location) 4 looked like WKTI ad... this is Montel... 94.5 ALL DAY full screen, stable with no sound b/w - almost sure thing, program match TMJ 1511 2 Montel back in again with perfect sound, good picture with extreme CCI too - KJRH still 1513 3 PBS stable screen near PERFECT b/w fundraising 800-337-4788, self-ID "SHTP," CC - AWESOME! - KSWK match 1514 3 PBS back in with color on/off - recording; CBS audio in back (same as 9), local likely - both are Guiding Light 1517 5 CBS same as 9, stable b/w, likely Green Bay 1530 5 orange/red "FR" logo in bottom left, color, sound, very good, then local CBS back poor b/w - KREX logo is closest match, but think it was a show logo [6/24 edit: FR is "RR" Rachael Ray, but no match!] 1532 3 all CCI with some local CBS in back 2 storm tracker on bottom left: a square with counties in white, warning in yellow showing Ellen very good in colour - KNOP/KSNC storms have been training over Nebraska with little over Kansas, so this is obviously KNOP (and KSNC was just in and didn't match this at all) 1537 2 all CCI, no real pictures... 3 all CCI, no real pictures... 4 is local TMJ 6 is local FOX 1538 move antenna further toward west 2 has a picture now 3 local but still with CCI and no sound, barely a picture at all 4 through 6 are all locals now 1541 3 cartoons?? - probably: KFME has Maya & Miguel "The Video," KENW has "Clifford and the Big Red Dog," KLNE has "Super WHY!" 1541 2 ABC very faint soap, parallel to local 13 (KMID and WBAY both match) ... which? Already had both in anyway. too much CCI on all channels; not enough picture 1542 moving antenna back toward southwest 1543 moving antenna toward Colorado 3 b/w stable (local) with perfect sound, very little CCI 2 all CCI with almost no picture 1544 move antenna further toward Houston 1545 2 almost blank, very little CCI at all 3 CBS local, no CCI 5 CBS local Green Bay 1546 turn antenna toward SSE 3 CBS perfect local 2 faint signal showing a single man on the screen - maybe WPBT? (but barely visible) 5 showing __ Cross (or Crossings)... b/w in without sound - thought it was Green Bay; not matching CBS locals - WMAQ has Merv Griffin's Crosswords (KXAS too - and likely this (see later for KFSM on 5)) 1551 antenna facing southeast now, all channels are the same as before, except 5 is now out 1553 antenna is facing east and northeast and all are the same or worse 2 something in faint facing northeast, maybe off the back of antenna? 1556 antenna is facing north 2 still in faint, or CCI now... with movie credits scrolling fast down screen!! - black screen with white text (pretty sure it's a movie; or end of Guiding Light?) 1559 antenna is as far north as it can go on the rotor 2 still faintly in with picture - what the hell? maybe from the northwest instead? 1607 antenna facing approximately northeast and blank Channel 2 jumps every now and then - nothing to be seen though just before moving rotor, signal in on 2... in decent b/w without sound... two people talking standing up - no local matches 1610 turn antenna back toward the southeast (local) - all normal except 5 5 b/w no sound but stable Dr. Phil? - QUITE sure that's him in the static, moderate signal - KFSM/KRGV but not WNEM - sticking with KFSM 'cause KRGV is far further than any skip today 1620 antenna is now facing toward the southwest 2 has light CCI but no picture though 3 is poor b/w local but no CCI really 1621 antenna aiming due west now 2 PBS picture with CCI "2 PBS" logo full screen - a 2 then the PBS head logo a few times but not seeing any logo matches to it - KUSD most likely 1625 antenna now facing toward the northwest 2 PBS looks like very faint PBS, nothing else - actually looks like Dr. Phil on the screen interviewing a guest; this is certainly a talk show and certainly him WBRZ has Dr. Phil as well as KPRC, but this is WBAY's match almost for sure 1628 antenna moves to due west with E-skip on 2 through 5 2 no sound b/w, but good picture 3 unknown with local 3 very poor to almost out 5 CBS local Green Bay showing "Temptation" game show; some sound, b/w stable 4 likely local TMJ with a flicker - likely no Es here 1632 2 CCI-free with Green Bay likely in back 1633 antenna facing toward the southwest now 2 Judge Judy b/w with no sound... this is WBBM Take break to ID stations as Es fades out 1847 2 PBS to the southwest - news interview, looks more like APT, widescreen, talking of Africa, etc with snippets of sound "Viewers Like You" and 1-800-492-..11 "WGBH"!!!!! 1853 spin antenna toward Boston, which was coming in strong off the back of the antenna - HUGE surprise!!!! 2 PBS WGBH very good in colour with perfect sound!! 1854 4 CBS Evening News in stable very good b/w with on/off sound - This is WBZ 6 CBS Evening News, same as 3, 4, 9 right now, but obviously just local WLNS turn antenna just a little bit in each direction toward east 2 PBS good b/w picture with "on GBH 2" ID 1910 turn antenna all around from northeast through southwest and nothing other than GBH good b/w in various spots 1915 giving up and back to IDing other stations now 1945 no Es noted on Ch 2 or others toward east or south... looks like it finally gave in. Whoo! 2254 not quite gone...

No audio, poor mostly - KSN? 3 CBS better local, but still a little interference to the picture 1812 2 NBC think it was just an ad... something else is in and it's likely the same channel... but not stable enough to pinpoint the content even - no, KSN *does* have Paid Programming currently - KSNC 3 heavy shadows over local at time as local shifts back and forth, left to right across the screen by just a few inches (recording, but didn't produce much in the way of shadows though - looked like man at a desk like local news maybe though) - KTBS has World News, otherwise not much else 1815 2 looks like the same man at the desk?? in good at times, with no audio though, b/w. - cooking breaks in again with widescreen picture, some audio mentioning sauces and Shanghai food, rice wine, etc. - news is likely KJRH local (KMID doesn't have World News for another 30 min.), likely not parallel to 3 1819 2 NBC Wichita Marriot and Hilton Wichita Airport Hotel Free Expo ad, very good with little audio, b/w... obviously KSN! Then food again with about the same quality (same channel?!) - no, it appears there are two - KSNC, KACV 3 shadows over local with edge of picture lines just slightly offset from local picture's edge 1822 2 two stations, likely the same two - one gets quite good on and off; hear a local news weather? or weather at a sporting event - KJRH is the only one with news (recording) 1823 2 PBS "See you next time" is heard on what sounds like the PBS station then some phone numbers; audio is in but quiet, with another picture 1825 2 ABC after PBS audio, very good logo for "Whacked Out Sports" pops up... and then some extreme sports pictures good with show logo lower left... then the Free Expo ad it looked like, but it is WITH the sports now... not the same channel - WBAY is running Whacked Out Sports with KPRC (only 2)... likely WBAY 1827 2 ABC credits are running on what looks like the sports program now, b/w no audio then ads 1830 2 ABC political news on 2 talking about a rare senate session, with good audio, good picture then another that looks like local news, might be the same one - this is all WBAY with World News (recording) 1836 2 mostly out but something is in at times... out for a few minutes now, with WBAY in, it appears this opening is finished. 07.28 MONDAY MINUTE-BY-MINUTE 1345 antenna is facing toward the southeast 2 UNID unknown, in/out and not matching anything 1350 turn the antenna due south 2 NBC coming in with logo it looks like, but not matching anything 1355 turn the antenna toward the southwest 2 is in strong very good with colour and perfect audio... not matching anything but has ads - only CBS has ads at the moment; has light fading, but otherwise stable, self-ID "NET1" - WBBM? 1356 2 near perfect with perfect audio and colour, CC, then Q2 weather promo! (been recording, now end) 1358 3 CBS local poor with perfect audio and interference 4 NBC TMJ in very good with strong edge of picture shadows 5 NBC in very good with edge of picture shadows, very good audio 6 FOX very good, b/w 1400 turn the antenna further to west for Montana 2 CBS perfect Q2 news, colour, perfect audio, only light interference (recording) 1403 3 static, intense CCI 4 TMJ with a judge program and extreme CCI trying to take it out 5 CBS Green Bay local news with logo, in colour, very good, Packers news 6 FOX in good but with 90.3 audio instead 1404 2 CBS perfect Q2 audio but picture is black and white, CCI lines mostly now 1407 2 CBS very good Q2 news with ads and promos (recording, but fading quite a bit) 3 same, local visible but no audio, a lot of interference 4 NBC very good TMJ news with logo, some audio, breaking news about Brett Favre, minor interference 5 CBS same press conference as 4, poor, with different audio in perfect, NBC promos in audio - Green Bay picture, Chicago audio 6 FOX very good, b/w, same press conference as 4 and 5 1412 3 local still in good b/w with almost no audio, but another is making a great attempt at knocking it out, both the same quality mixing together intensely (recording) 1424 2 CBS perfect audio now and then with Q2 logos visible, but picture appears to be something else coming in, but mostly CCI 3 CBS mostly local now with CBS logo but flickering strong at times, audio is so quiet it's barely audible at times, then in colour with perfect audio 4 NBC Favre conference was a break in network programming for all stations earlier, now normal... but mostly out 1427 2 CBS Q2 News with weather recap, in very good with perfect audio in/out suddenly back in strong (recording) 3 heavy interference but still unable to take out local - either way, could never tell which is which 1432 turn the antenna further toward the northwest 5 CBS Green Bay now in near perfect with colour 3 heavier interference and screen is flashing, but local holding on 2 soaps in good with lines over it, but the interference may well be WBAY 1436 2 ABC now seeing ABC ads that match 13 (WBAY) in very good with interference soap in very good at times - Q2 is showing The Bold and The Beautiful now 1439 turn the antenna toward the southwest a little more 2 is in good with no audio, b/w picture with CBS soap on Mountain Time schedule, no audio though 3 CBS no audio, b/w very good with some light interference, unsure if it's from skip or not 1442 turn the antenna toward Chicago, but everything goes out 3 CBS local is very good alone 1445 turn the antenna back toward the west 2 not much happening, just some CCI 3 heavy interference over local, either local or all CCI, but all visible pictures are parallel to 9 4 NBC near perfect TMJ 5 CBS very good b/w Green Bay with no audio 6 FOX very good with audio, b/w 1451 2 ABC has been in stable for some time now - it's ABC, WBAY likely, parallel to 13 3 has been poor with picture interference that looks like it's more directional than from skip... but it's still a mess at times 1455 end skip viewing for now... I think it's over. 07.31 THURSDAY MINUTE-BY-MINUTE 1540 antenna is currently aiming toward the southwest 1540 2 NBC Rachael Ray in very good with some minor CCI, but stable, colour - KPRC 3 heavy lines with very good b/w local, doing a good job taking it out - doubtfully anything other than KIII 1544 2 NBC two Gillman Subaru ads with Houston mentions, programming match, near perfect, CC, self-ID "CWD" - KPRC 1601 2 NBC Dr. Phil in very good behind the CCI with visible LOCAL2 logo with what looks like a documentary, but it's possible it's all the same; informercial? very good audio from it... - KPRC 3 still with the white horizontal scrolling lines from top to bottom at times 1620 2 NBC Dr. Phil still in good with CCI, visible, "2" logo bottom right - KPRC 3 still very good local but with pretty severe interference at times taking it out with audio on/off, but local won't let go 1625 have to go to work now... so no more monitoring the skip. 08.02 SATURDAY MINUTE-BY-MINUTE 1830 the antenna is currently facing toward the southwest as I monitor cross-lake conditions from ducting today 1830 2 CBS WBBM in very good but at times facing heavy interference from a skip station coming in now 3 CBS interference lines and shadows at times over local (heavier shadows facing south) 4 NBC perfect edge of picture shadows racing by right to left on screen over perfect TMJ 1835 4 NBC some CCI lines with edge of picture shadows racing by 2 b/w, no audio on anything now, all CCI with Chicago in good behind 5 NBC WMAQ in very good without interference 6 FOX perfect local 1845 turn antenna more toward the west 2 heavy CCI, WBBM picture visible parallel to 3 3 CBS very good local with light edge of picture shadows, local b/w 4 NBC perfect TMJ 5 NBC very good Chicago with light interference likely caused by Green Bay 6 FOX solid local, CC, "MNT" self-ID, perfect 1851 turn the antenna toward the southwest 2 all CCI 3 all CCI with local picture and on/off audio under - ABC World News in with very good audio mixing with local; picture with ABC logo visible bottom right with audio same as 13, in near perfect on/off - KIII 4 NBC minor CCI over top at times and edge of picture shadows 1853 2 NBC very good at times, NBC Cialis ad matching TMJ, b/w with some colour on/off, perfect audio, but also picture/audio from a Plavix ad parallel to 13 - WBRZ, KPRC 5 NBC very good Chicago with some interference now, not sure if it's skip or not - flickering from bottom to top 6 FOX still perfect 1856 3 all CCI, then CBS Evening News local in good b/w 4 NBC some CCI, but still perfect 1900 2 NBC local news, but CCI is so bad I can't tell which... see a logo though - it's KPRC in very good with colour and perfect audio at times, mixing with another in/out - KPRC 1903 3 briefly in colour with local news, blue bar with name "ERIK ROSALES" it appears, last name uncertain, but first was Erik, otherwise all CCI and two different audios... picture on and off, looked like an ABC News logo bottom right - there is no one left showing World News on 3 at this time, but this was still likely KIII mixing with KBTX 1905 3 ABC KIII logo can be seen on one picture clearly while Erik is back with name on screen on another picture as well, audio mention of Austin on one, College Park on the other - KIII, KBTX 1908 3 ABC heard "Still ahead on 3 News..." and more, audio perfect for short while, still two stations in with CCI 4 NBC CCI hitting TMJ hard but TMJ still perfect 2 NBC KPRC local news very good at times, colour (even when not so good) with WBRZ likely... shadows over picture with on/off blips of audio 1951 back from dinner... 2 b/w and colour sometimes, good picture, not sure which 3 CBS looks like local b/w Jeopardy picture with different audio; Jeopardy promos and show set, mixing with another still but local is strong enough that the CCI can't break its picture except for brief moments on/off 4 NBC light CCI now and then over TMJ, but picture is solid 5 mostly out, but picture is there 1959 2 mostly CCI, some audio way behind it, and a picture back there on/off b/w good 3 still the same CCI but more local b/w good with limited audio and a lot of static audio 2000 2 NBC matches TMJ showing The Office episode "Chair Model," widescreen... in/out - KPRC 2007 move antenna further toward the south; APRS map showing skip cloud over Western Tennessee, but likely will produce gulf/coastal signals here only 2008 2 NBC good with CCI, b/w, matches 4 3 CBS very good local with strong transparent shadows over top and transparent lines from top to bottom horizontally - sometimes the picture is worse; see the sync bar in the centre of the screen - WEAR obviously 4 NBC TMJ good with CCI, showing The Office 5 ABC Chicago good with another signal at the same time, both same quality, the second signal is an ABC, matching 13, then both go out on/off - KRGV 6 FOX Cops, stable, good b/w then very good colour, CC 2015 2 NBC saw KPRC logo during promo, then continues parallel to 8, good, almost no audio, b/w, CCI 3 the same as before 4 NBC heavier interference over very good TMJ, but no other picture or audio 2028 99.5 KKPS TX Brownsville very good Spanish AC/polka (Tejano), 99.5 Que Pasa (no ID) with Green Bay pos behind, 100kw (1372 mi) 2029 99.9 KSAB TX Robstown good Spanish Tejano just like KKPS, Tejano 99.9 (no ID) with 100.1 local interference, 100kw (1264 mi) 2032 93.1 XHAAA TM Reynosa perfect in and out, La Caliente (former Super Estelar);

Final station locations were decided upon by mapping the transmitters' locations in relation to the solid match of 94.7 CBWI and the supposed 97.1 solid match (temporary pending confirmation). 93.3 IDed as NCI-FM, which has two stations on this frequency 270 miles apart. The CBC Radio One trio IDed as CBC Radio One, 89.3 (CBW-FM 1 Winnipeg). There are multiple translators on these frequencies. Most stations were in stable and in perfect local-like with little to no static or interference for a half hour before leaving the beach, upon which time they all abruptly faded out at Lighthouse Connector Park (yet remained stable along Harbor Drive, especially beside the bluff behind Lighthouse Point Condos). # 97.1 was not heard as officially listed. A licensed station to this area, which is 40 miles from the 94.7 match, is reported as rebroadcasting CJOB-AM Winnipeg. However, the station sounded like a community station run from a home.
