No, a trop fluke! Sporadic-E skip only affects HF and VHF (and not the whole of VHF at that).

Tropospheric refraction affects VHF and UHF. Trop (also called tropo) is more common than E-skip, but usually involves shorter distances than Es.

Most trop openings affect all TV channels and the FM broadcast band, but the low VHF channels and the FM band are sometimes excluded.
