Interesting observation on Vitoša mountain, on Black peak(2290 m) - out of 30 local FM stations in Sofia only 7 of them are audible here, only ~ 13 km from their transmitters.
This video shows how on their frequencies foreign and other Bulgarian stations are audible, and how some of the local stations even on free, vacant frequency are absent in the mountain. On some frequencies Romanian transmitter from 300 km is stronger than our, transmitting from Kopitoto, which is the closest one transmitter, only 8 km away!
In this video Sangean ATS 909W is used, even without telescopic antenna being whipped out and in the next one - Eton G6 Aviator, which was able to receive only one local station, on 103,0 local BNR1 Horizont from Kopitoto.
