WEIM Format Change

[Sid Schweiger]

>>Macek says he bought the land with hopes that he can get FCC 
approval for an increase in WEIM's night power, which may require adding
one 
or more towers to the current 4 tower array already there. WEIM
currently 
operates with 5KW days and 1KW night, DA-2. Although the article doesn't

say, I'm guessing he will try for 5KW at night. I would guess they would

have to protect 1280's in Gardiner ME and New York City, plus is there
still 
a 50KW on 1280 in Canada, or is that now dark?<<

That's not going to be an easy increase.  He also has a cellular tower
and WFGL's array, both in the near-field of the WEIM array, to consider.
