Re: Radio Free Vermont's "address"

[Doug Bassett <dbassett@sover.net>]

There is (or was?) a CP for 96.3 in Walpole, NH, which is right across the
river from Bellows Falls, Vt.  They were actually looking to site the tower
in Vermont, but the locals wouldn't let 'em build due to "aesthetics" (the
NIMBY syndrome).  Still, it's a good distance between there and Rutland,
though, even if the 96.3 had been built.  And given the uneven terrain
between the two locations, I doubt interference would be much of a problem
with the apparently low power RFV is operating with.
