WQXR FM Reduction in TX Power
A family member lives 40 miles LOS from WQXR FM (NYC). She enjoyed listening to it for many years. However, all that changed on July 14, 2009:

Which rooftop antenna will allow them to reliably receive WQXR? Thanks |
NYC / NJ / Philadelphia metro area: "Less talk" classical?
I recently heard that the new 105.9 WQXR is not as enjoyable as the original 96.3 WQXR, which had less talk and more non-repetitious music.
Can anyone recommend a "less talk" classical music station in the NYC / NJ / Philadelphia metro area that is most similar to the original 96.3 WQXR out of NYC? Thanks |
You would probably need a good directional FM antenna to get WQXR with it's new signal. I would recommend an AntennaCraft FM-6 aimed at the ESB: it has approx. 6dB gain, and is moderately directional. It should bring in WQXR at those signal levels. However, a lot will depend on the quality of the FM tuner involved.
There are adjacent stations in the NYC area on 105.7 and 106.1 which may cause adjacent channel interference with WQXR,therefore it is very important to have an FM tuner that is selective enough to reject the adjacent channels. I suggest looking at http://www.FMtunerinfo.com for good suggestions. |
