VERY short sighted sense. They will be getting a
crippled station. A downgrade to B means that night
power has to be less than 10,000 watts. At 1510 and
directional they won't cover a lot of ground at night.

And that will also simply destroy a good bit of the
local night coverage. They may not even cover all of
the City of License at night anymore.
