Best FM catch I ever heard was back in college in the 70's. In my car I
picked up an Fm station from Pompano, Beach Florida from Western
Massachusetts. It was coming in like a local...rock solid and perfect. I
got
to my friends house and we got it on his stereo system no problem. Even
called the station and the announcer talked about it. This was my
introduction to dx-ing and I've never matched it since. If I remember
correctly we listened for over a half hour...perhaps it was an hour, then
it
faded out never to return.


Almost every summer I used to get stations from TX , NM and AZ at my
location near Portland, OR. Was never the same stations twice in a row, but
always seemed to be the same part of the country. Would last from an hour to
slightly more, usually, then gone.
