FM DX from Texas, Arizona and Alabama

[IrvingtonVFD43]

On my way to get a sandwich and my car radio was screaming with big Texas DX! (and others) Many of them at full quieting and rich stereo.

Here is my logs: Start time 1445 cdt. with abrupt end near 1600. MUF was right at 100.1.

92.3-KOFX-El Paso, nice mix of Old School oldies with remote from National Furniture Liquidators
93.1-KSII-El Paso, KISS FM with a Whataburger commercial and Various Hit music.
93.3-WLWI-I-92 Country-Montgomery, Alabama
93.9-KMXR-Corpus Christie with Neil Diamond-"Sweet Caroline"
95.5-KYOT-The Mountain, Phoenix, with Train-"Soul Sister"
95.7-KKHH-Hot 95.7 Houston
97.1-KEGL-Dallas/Ft.Worth

Many other catches coming through, but naturally, they would fade out before I could get a positive ID. Also noteworthy, quite a few Mexican stations battling it out in the mix too.

Love when this happens. I heard this on FM one day driving, and flipped the ham radio on to 146.52, and chatted from central Texas to people in Florida.

Not tropo but sporadic E. This is the time of year when it starts to peak. If it was tropo he would have been hearing stations all the way up the band and not stopping around 100 MHz.

There was a front passing through the DFW area around the times of your posting as well. This may have provided some signal "ducting" to bounce them up into your area as well.
