Re: 560 WGAN

I don't think confusion was the main issue.  I think the idea was to be
consistent with what people see on their dial.  Using 560 makes the station
more consistent with the technology and more modern sounding.  WGAN was the
only AM station in the market not using its full frequency on the air.
