Re: One Tower, Two (or more) States



All AMs that put a decent signal into New York City, with the exception of
WFAN, WCBS, and WQEW, broadcast from the Meadowlands. Moreover, many are
within a very short distance of each other (best examples: WOR, WEVD, WLIB,
and WJWR, but even these are just a stones throw from WINS, WWRL, and WBBR).
But that's not the idea behind Scott's post. Scott was talkijng about
stations licensed to different states that share one site. WWRV and WWDJ
share a site. WKDM and WWRU share another site by day. WWRV and WKDM are
licensed to New York, WWRU and WWDJ are licensed to New Jersey. WMCA and
WNYC also share a site, but they don't make the list because both are
licensed to New York. Same with WFAN and WCBS. If WPAT ever shares its site
with co-owned WNSW, as has been suggested would happen, they won't make the
list either, because both are licensed to New Jersey.

The number of AM sites that host two or more New York area stations may be
closing in on the number of sites that host only one. The following sites
have only one station each, WABC, WPAT, WZRC, WADO, WINS, WWRL, WBBR, WEVD,
WOR, WLIB, WJWR, WQEW, WNSW, and WWRU's night site. Scott, have I left any
out?
