What I am trying to determine is.....

Is this a Frequency change from 1050 to 1500 for WFED.........

OR ...

Is this just a CALL Letter Change for WWWT???

If it's a Frequency Change for WFED....then I guess I can count this as a New Station...if it's just a Call Change for WWWT...then I can't!!!

Just a call change for the former WWWT (ex-WTOP) on 1500. The 1500 transmitter site in Wheaton, MD and the 1050 site at the Sligo Creek Golf Course are only a couple of miles distant, but each frequency is staying put.

It's extremely expensive - not to mention almost impossible, politically - to move one of the big 50 kW AM transmitter sites, so you don't see that happen very often and it's a big deal when it does.
