A few TV notes to pass along. WNCF and WBMM have both completed their latest construction permits. WNCF-DT 32 upped their power from 35 kW to 83 kW. WBMM-DT appears to have moved from RF channel 24 to channel 22, and increased power from the 300 watts on their STA to 65 kW. WBMM may have already been on 22 with some other setup; the FCC database does not make it clear whether the listed STA is actively being used or not.
On to one of my favorite subjects now, translators. WAY-FM's translator on 91.5 MHz (W218BG) has received a construction permit to slide down the dial to 102.3 MHz, with 250 watts. Could this translator be rebroadcasting another local AM before long? We'll see. It'll have a dumbbell-shaped radiation pattern with lobes to the WNW and ESE so it won't exactly be an easy catch all over the Gump.
