    Orlando, FL one more time

    This time I happened to favor north and captured many signals with undocumented PIs. Also multiple signals per frequency with minor antenna adjustment.

    The translator on 104.7 is a prime example of what is wrong with the FM band these days. WRBQ, Q-105 in Tampa, would easily be received if it weren't for this translator. I received Q-105 with no problem when I was in Orlando January 2023, and on prior trips over the years. But this January, this translator blocked Q-105. It's a shame the FCC approves translators in situations like this.

      And it's not going to get any better. CPs have already issued for another 600+ LPFMs across the US and more are on the way. The FCC motto should be "if you see a hole, plug it up", because that's what they're doing.

        They apparently have been told broadcast AM/FM/TV is all expendable. So trash on the bands is to be ignored while bowing down to cell companies.
