RE: WBZ Reception Is Worsening

Counsellor,

Technical and regulatory issues aside, I suspect that they're not about to
go to the expense of two 50KW transmitters one of which will seen only
occasional use.

Thanks for that information.

I'm curious about something.  Why must WBZ only use 10,000 watts from the
auxiliary transmitter?  Being a clear-channel station, I would think it
would be licensed to use full power, even from its auxiliary transmitter.
I realize that the main transmitter uses a pattern that nulls to the east,
but that's just the Atlantic Ocean.  Or are there European signals on that
frequency that WBZ has to protect?
