John,
Your shootouts are always informative and interesting. Do the totals for the Insignia pocket radios include HD sub-channels, or just the main stations?
Haven't had much luck with FM Dx here in the Pacific Northwest, apart from the (very occasional) tropo openings; maybe I'll give it a try this summer with one of those new radios.

Welcome to a FM ULR Rodeo!
All radios were tested 11am to 2pm on the same day
or inductively to an external FanFare FM26 omni-directional
FM antenna.top of a high ridge that overlooks Lake Memphremagog here in
Location: We live in a small housing development on
Northern Vermont, very near the Canadian border. The
location of this ridge gives us a 360 degree view of the far
horizon, so it is ideal for FM dxing.here: "your results may vary and watch where you step."
