I made up a star rating system here. RX location is Beecher, IL. 2-story home at about 6ft HAAT. Sangean HDR-1 with small dual-whip dipole on a 4' cable (old RadioShack pocket antenna device for TV+FM). AM is with Sangean's external loop. I am only listing HD stations for which I get consistent analog reception. FM legend... HD undetected * HD detected; rarely locks ** HD with occasional dropout (hot spots upstairs) *** HD fair (okay upstairs, hot spots downstairs) **** HD good (some dead spots downstairs) ***** HD excellent **** 89.7 WONU * 90.1 WMBI-FM 90.9 WDCB *** 91.5 WBEZ ***** 92.3 WPWX *** 93.1 WXRT ** 93.9 WLIT-FM ** 94.7 WLS-FM *** 95.5 WEBG * 96.3 WBBM-FM ** 96.7 WSSR *** 97.1 WDRV *** 98.7 WFMT *** 99.5 WUSN * 100.3 WSHE-FM *** 101.1 WKQX 101.9 WTMX (WYCA HD interference) ***** 102.3 WYCA (2 miles away) 102.7 WVAZ (WYCA HD interference) ** 103.5 WKSC-FM *** 104.3 WBMX 105.1 WOJO *** 105.9 WCFS-FM **** 106.3 WSRB 106.7 WPPN ** 107.5 WGCI-FM *** 107.9 WLEY-FM AM legend... HD undetected * HD detected; rarely locks ** HD with occasional dropout (loop aimed perfectly) *** HD fair (narrow loop aim) **** HD good (wide loop aim) ***** HD excellent * 620 WTMJ *** 670 WSCR ** 780 WBBM ** 1120 KMOX (night) 1690 WVON
