WNSH--most powerful North Shore AM?



We've talked about how much more powerful WNSH sounds.
I checked 100000watts.com and this is their listing
for 'NSH:

WNSH
1570  Format: 50s-70s oldies, talk, ethnic
(note: 50s-70s oldies has been dropped--BN)
ID: Beverly MA/Hamilton MA (huh? thought it was just
WNSH Beverly--BN)
Co-owned: WMSX
Web Site: http://www.wnsh.com/
Facilities: 500w/500w
  
 Transmitter: 42° 33' 28" N 70° 50' 12" W
app: 5000w/500w
  
 Transmitter: 42° 33' 28" N 70° 50' 12" W

Well, I'm not sure if they also own WMSX or not...but
note the application.
Keating Willcox (owner) had told me their application
was approved--so we're now talking 5 kW for 'NSH? I
always remember them as being 500 watts--and for
awhile they were at reduced power, putting out as
little as 125 watts.

Other North Shore AM stations by comparison:
WLYN 700w/76w
WESX 1000w/1000w
WNBP 1000w/1000w

So I guess 'NSH now the most powerful AM on the North
Shore. (I could lump
WROL in there, as the antenna is in Saugus though
they're licensed
to Boston--they're 5000w/90w according to
100000watts.com...)
