Broadcast Service Map for 91.7 WIXQ-FM |
This map shows the FM broadcast service area of WIXQ at 91.7MHz. Remember, WIXQ broadcasts in real-time over the Internet in streaming RealAudio, so technically our service map extends to everywhere in the universe that has a connection to the Internet.
Orientation notes: Pennsylvania occupies the top 2/3 of the map. The state of Maryland takes up most of the bottom 1/3, except for the bottom right which is presently claimed by Delaware.
| What the circles mean | |
| red | 3 mile protected broadcast radius |
| The red area can hear WIXQ loud and clear. | |
| blue | 20 mile effective broadcast radius |
| The blue area can usually hear WIXQ when they tweak their antennas. | |
| brown | 26 mile fringe broadcast radius |
| The brown area and beyond can often tune in when atmospheric conditions are favorable, if listeners adjust their antennas. The furthest confirmed FM listenings to WIXQ are Reading, PA, Coatesville, PA, and Bel Air, MD. If you've heard our FM signal in other far-away places, let us know by writing to webmaster@wixq.com. | |
Please note that the radii pictured here are unofficial generalizations about the nature of WIXQ's signal. The actual signal strength at any given distance depends on terrain, topography, atmospheric conditions, other radio stations, your radio and antenna, and the quality of the tracking devices the CIA and/or Martians may've implanted in your dental fillings.
