WAQY (was: RE: 1290 WCCC/West Hartford)

WAQY(AM) is still on the air, but they are currently ND day only. They only
have one tower located behind the Fisher Ave. Studios. They do currently
simulcast the FM also, but the legal ID is incorrect unless they do separate
legal ID's. As their licensed call sign for the AM'er is WPNT.
