Re: 1510 at night?



I don't think Syracuse is on 1510 or still plans to move 
there. The Syracuse station that held a CP for 1510 was 
WOLF, which was going to move from 1490. But I think 
WOLF turned in the CP for 1510 and instead changed the 
TX site for its 1490 operation. Or should that 
read "sites?" In the back of my mind, I think I recall 
that WOLF uses separate day and night sites. 

If the big WNRB signal in New York City was heard 
between midnight and 6:00 AM, it might have been WNRB 
testing the looser noncritical-hours day pattern for 
which it holds a CP. But I don't think that WNRB has 
built that minor modification, and if it has, why 
wouldn't they test it during the day? The looser pattern 
was made possible by the demise of the 1510 in New 
London.
