WAKT-LP heard much better in Greater Toledo
Drove from Perrysburg to the state line, could hear 106.1 the entire way. Much better reception. Previously, you could only hear the station if you were in downtown, and even then the signal was scratchy. Always liked 106.1's programming, a format based on local bands/artists is something very much appreciated here.

LPFM's are 100w from 100ft. That's not going to make it to the state line without a lot of help.

It's actually coming in slightly better from my home in NW Toledo as well.

Yeah it sounded great around Collingwood ave in Toledo yesterday, near the former Mercy Hospital. Out in Bedford it was scratchy but listenable.

The new WAKT 106.1 tower is up, there a celebration at the studio site on Saturday so coverage should be greatly improved going forward.

WAKT has a great mix of local talent and on a decent radio (CCrane) get 106.1 in stereo at St. Anne's hospital.
