Richmond, VA FM DX Log

As a DXer, traveling is a fun way to see and hear what the radio dial is like in other areas.  I occasionally visit the Richmond, VA area. Its convenient location in central Virginia often places the city along my route when I travel to points south via car. This page includes logs from Richmond city and multiple suburbs within 30 miles of the city.

The log below represents the first logging of every signal I received in this area. Changes (i.e. new call letters, formats, etc.) observed in these signals upon subsequent visits to this area are noted in the “Information” column, where appropriate. RDS and HD Radio screenshots shown below may be from different loggings of the same station.
