You are probably correct.

1.3 kW, from the old site IIRC.

I suppose they feel that the high-income Loudoun and Fairfax counties
are worth the Baltimore sacrifice. They'll probably be good in
Montgomery Co, MD, as well.  All daytime, no significant increased
coverage at night has been proposed AFAIK. Maybe they will try for more
night power once the day is on.
