What tower on Mt. Greylock does "W51AE" broadcast from? Because I never saw
it up there.

No. That's a low powered station, W51AE, who transmits a whopping 5.68
kilowatts from the WCDC tower on Mt. Greylock. The auction is for the full
power assignment of UHF 51 in Pittsfield. Which if ever took to the air,
would mean that W51AE would have to change channels.
