Legal ID on Translators

KOOL 990/96.1 runs their hourly Legal ID "WNTY and W241CG Southington." The VO Guy doing the ID says "W-Two-Four-One-C-G". I was just curious is there something wrong with saying "W-Two-Forty-One-C-G?"

It's the same with their sister station - KOOL 1180/104.3 in Rhode Island. "WSKP and W282CB Hope Valley" saying "W-Two-Eight-Two-C-B" rather than "W-Two-Eighty-Two-C-B".

The legal ID for WKHB here in the Pittsburgh area includes "W231BM Clairton" and "W222CB Irwin".

The first is pronounced "W two thirty-one BM" so evidently that's kosher.
Both of those are said breathlessly and VERY quickly under a music bed.
 
It doesn't matter. If the really wanted to they could identify it certain times of the day (FCC has certain times), or use a FSK identifier and not do it at all.
