Re: WRKO Update

WBIX's day and CH patterns are modified cardioids oriented around an azimuth
of 35 degrees. So the signal carries nicely in an arc from west through
south. The new night signal, when it gets onto the air, will go entirely to
the east. The night site, which will be in Ashland, was originally designed
for 1060 and was used by previous incarnations of 1060 before 890 took it
over. The night site is about 3 miles south of the day site, which is in
Framingham,.and is currently shared with WKOX 1200.
