20 element fm antenna

Been searching the web for a yagi fm antenna, not many out there these days but i did stumble upon this one. https://www.innovantennas.com/en/our-antennas/546/26/88mhz-108mhz-broadcast/20-element-88-108mhz-op-desInnovAntennas%20shop.html Any thoughts? Looks a little overkill but any gain would help,...

Re: Northern Michigan dual TV channel ID

If my understanding of FCC rules is correct, I believe any channels running the same programming (ie, simulcast) owned by the same company have to show visual ID of those channels. So, station IDs cannot be all individual. Wonder how local 32 (fox) gets away with not displaying 45 except on the TOH...

Re: 99.9 WHCH on the air

Here In manistee the Signal is weak right now but is coming in better than 94.9. Probably get better like WMOM did after time.
Station sounds really good and nice to have another local choice for music.

Chad Kroeger - Why Don't You And I" now playing 6:09:24 AM - "Magic! - Rude" now playing 6:15:09 AM - "Tal Bachm...

Re: Z93

Looks like they already changed out afternoon drive talent too? Scrubbed from the website. Broadway has mostly been an afternoon or evening jock and is listed there so the scrubbing of the site must have happened recently. Speaking of AJ, didn’t he used to be the morning show host on WMOM during it...

Re: Z93

Doesn't WIXX come in pretty well in Manistee? Oddly it seems WIXX signal is weaker than it used to be. I used to be able to receive it better 20 miles inland but in manistee it’s hard to get without My FM yagi antenna these days. Wapl comes in better but does occasionally splatter on the car radio....

No not z93. In Manistee we don’t have much to listen to And Ludington radio station signal reception suck here. Hopefully not a format flip coming.

Re: 102.7 manistee

Looks like WMOM is getting new antennas installed today. 4 antennas to 6 antennas. signal will be off. Maybe I’ll listen to WRVM, 🤮
No change in ERP from what I heard. Hopefully it will help with reception gaps in City of Manistee.

Re: Green Bay OTA TV reception from manistee

Looks like WFRV FOX 11 moved to UHF channel 18. Seems like it’s still weaker then nbc26 and abc2. Abc2 is by far the strongest GB channel that can be received on this side of the lake.
