1. Y100 isn't coming back.
2. Why hire the Y100 Rocks crew? If they were any good, they would have found new jobs by now.
3. WPLY - [W]al[P]o[L]e (e ~ y) Maybe WPLY is permanent for Walpole (sound it out!!!)

No. 97.5's transmitter isn't moving to Burlington. That's just their city of license. The 97.5 signal is exactly the same as it was yesterday.

97.5 has an application to move their transmitter to Wyndmoor, but the FCC hasn't approved it yet.

Give it up, Y100 isn't coming back! 97.5 The Hawk is better anyway.

Re: 97.5 Move

Thanks for clearing that up. This is the latest I found on WTHK-FM on radio-locator.com http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bi...0&y=0&is_unl=Y&is_lic=Y&is_cp=Y&sr=Y&s=C&sid=
Where is the transmitter located right now?
You can delete my earlier post to eliminate confusion.

New Bay on Mermaid Lane?

I hear there is now a new three bay antenna mounted (roughly 20 feet) under the JJZ three bay top mast, facing SE. The JJZ mast is facing NE.

Last I heard Nassau Broadcasting has an application to move their WTHK transmitter to Wyndmoor, but the FCC hasn't approved it yet. Can somebody find out if Nassau has a construction permit for a new bay?
