Anyone else use these sites?
FM map just added new maps from Google ... I like them! :laughing:
Here's my map for 106.5. I added the "HOME" part. You can adjust all the parameters to make the map you need.

I just started moving my shack up from the basement after getting froze out.
Back to DX business! :D

I was invited by one of the webmasters of the site to join. I need a site like it basically for foreign FM. I do believe though, that a lot of the foreign stuff is relied upon by FM aficionados & DXers all over the globe.
IIRC, I supplied a station in Venezuela that I caught on DX that I believe was not known by the folk at the site. But yes otherwise, it's a cool site.

Hi John & cd637299,
I'm a VHF-FM-MW DXer living in Germany and found the WTFDA forums.
Nice to read your postings about the FMSCAN maps:) I met the designer of the FMSCAN site once before, a nice guy and he tries to design the site as best as he can.
The new Google maps give a whole new great look to FMSCAN-FMMAP, and when clicking on transmitter info you can even see uploaded photos (from FMLIST) displayed (check the CN Tower in Toronto for example). FMSCAN shows direction transmitter antenna diagrams whenever possible, this can help a lot.
In North America, hopefully data at least in areas such a southern California or around the Great lakes is accurate enough, currently a dedicated databse editor is missing for the US and data relies on the most recent FCC updates.
In the Caribbean or Latin America FMSCAN-FMMAPS covers many areas too, and more data updates are coming (Brazil or French overseas territories seem to be ok).
Good DX & 73 from Germany
