Re: [IRCA] That pesky bluegrass on 980



Guys...

WHAW moved their toewr a few miles south of it's currently location and is
going from 1000 Watts Day Non Directional and 50 Watts night Non directional
to 25,000 Watts Day Non Directional and 49 Watts Night Non Directional.

And since they are non direcitonal, they aren't beaming it in one specific
direction.

Also, from WFHG's site in Bristol, VA to WHAW's site in Weston, WV is 250
miles.. not 120 miles.

So, yes, it was a BIG power increase.. and a SMALL tower move.

Paul
