WNAC 1200

[Kevin Vahey]

Back in 1947 the FCC was 'hesitant' to break up a clear channel.

1200 was and is assigned to WOAI in San Antonio.

Today skywave protection is more limited than back then.

Take it the other way - KTWO in Wyoming was only allowed to move in 1030 in
1967 but still nulls to the east to protect WBZ.
