I wonder if you lived in Hartford or Philly.

WEDU (Tampa, channel 3) was ultra-common, too, but WFSB or KYW have have drowned WEDU out.

Sporadic-E propagation in the VHF-Low TV band strongly favors paths of 1,000 miles (1,600 km), not much further, and not much shorter. If a TV DXer gets a station 350 miles distant, he/she will brag about it.
