Just got home and switched on the scanners.  WOW!, I am hearing the
ground side controller from Moncton Center on 128.375 and 123.900
both located in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.  It's so clear just like he was
transmitting on my local ZBW transmitter.  That's 212 miles point to
point straight line.

Also hearing ground side of 128.750 (ZBW) in Barnstable, MA on Cape Cod.
130 miles point to point.

This has happened to me a few times before.  I thought something was going on
because when I was driving around Portland, ME today, I was picking up Boston
FM radio stations loud and clear.  They don't usually make it this far on a normal day.

Anybody else getting this ducting in their area?
