I'm not sure the WPEP-WYSL comparison is valid. Apparently
the WPEP owners accepted an offer to sell. Possibly not
completely to their liking, but apparently it was an acceptable
offer, reflecting something like "market value".

Last I heard, WYSL is not looking to sell. And any offer made to them
now would be substantially degraded because of the interference
problem, and "market value" would be compromised.
