When the tropo sets up, I hear every full-B signal on the Cape.  'FCC
is a regular, although less so in Framingham (thanks to first-adjacent
'AAF) than it was in Brighton.  If I ever meet the engineers at
Greater Media, I'll have to thank them profusely for moving all their
stations away from me.

My non-E loggings here in Framingham look like this:

The Cape stuff comes up almost every night; the other stations
(obviously excluding the locals) are less regular.
