Bayview MA

[Dan.Strassberg]

There is, indeed, a Bay View MI, but the proper spelling puts a space
between the w and the M and capitalizes the M. Still, a Google search for
Bayview MA did not come up empty, but I saw no mention of Dartmouth MA among
the results. My guess is that someone at the FCC changed the case of the M
and deleted the space. Getting Google results for Baview MA must have
reassured the FCC person that s/he had the CoL and state correct. Of course,
with enough relaxation of the rules because of long salt water paths, an AM
730 in Dartmouth with a tight pattern that favored the southeast might
actually work--provided the permittee had a large stash of cash and could
find a Tx site large enough for all of the required towers. The service area
would mainly cover the ocean but there must be some islands within it whose
inhabitants really feel the need of a person to say the Rosary on the radio
every morning. OK, not really.
