True--when WWZN is on day (NOT critical hours) pattern. I don't think 
WWZN can legitimately claim to reach Connecticut during critical hours 
or at night. Problem is that critical hours begin two hours before 
sunset. IIRC, sunset is at 7:00PM EDT in September, 6:00PM EDT/5:00PM 
EST in October, and 4:30PM EST in November. So CH begins between 
5:00PM and 2:30PM in the months of interest. Connecticut won't be a 
good place to listen to college football games on WWZN during much of 
the season.
