Yup, I noticed it on my way to Manchester today. Just
a faint signal from WARV and splatter from WUNR.
Question.... Now that the clock has started on WSMN's
one year silent period, could they possibly run...
say, 250 watts/ND on the 900/Nashua tower to keep the
license active until a more permanent solution could
be found? Obviously, this is a "special" circumstance
in the eyes of the FCC, due to encroachment of an old
antenna array. Any thoughts?
