Northport's W286AQ - still headed east.

W286AQ (105.1 MHz) is our next translator-on-the-go.  I kinda figured this would be headed into Birmingham, but it appears to be going the wrong direction — this time to just north of Jemison.  The site's off CR-146, between US-31 and I-65 and will put 60 dBu into Jemison and almost into Calera.

I have my doubts that this is a final resting place, although there's an existing tower at the site.  Clanton's only AM, WKLF, already has a translator to its name, so I don't know what else this could relay besides religious programming.  My bet is it isn't through moving yet.
